For me, this book qualifies as the best book to understand Ambedkar's work. It carries most important articles, which broadly aimed to strengthen meaning of justice, equity, and fairness. I have not read earlier Ambedkar's writings in-depth, and this book made me read further Ambedkar's writings, and I am planning do this summer.
I believe Ambedkar's idea is becoming more relevant and famous in the 21st century, especially his vision for the marginalized, vulnerable, and disadvantaged communities who have to languish in poverty for centuries, and now becoming assertive due to the tool given by the great Ambedkar. I would recommend this book to everyone who wish to puruse sholarship of social justice.
Finally, thanks to Amazon and Published for making this book available for such a good price.

The Essential Ambedkar Kindle Edition
| Customers reported quality issues in this eBook. This eBook has: Typos. The publisher has been notified to correct these issues. Quality issues reported |
One of the pillars of Indian democracy who played a pivotal role in shaping the Indian Constitution, Dr Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar is also known for his radical, no-holds-barred views on the discrimination against the backward classes, particularly the Untouchables, and the caste politics practised by Hindus. His path-breaking ideas, most of which are relevant even today, are reflected in his writings.
In The Essential Ambedkar, the finest extracts from Ambedkar’s impressive body of work have been selected and thematically arranged, covering issues such as caste and untouchability, the philosophy of the Hindu religion, the making of the Indian Constitution, the emancipation of women, India’s education policy, the Partition and much more. Both a handy reference guide as well as a useful introduction to readers unfamiliar with Ambedkar’s works, The Essential Ambedkar is a befitting tribute to the legacy of Babasaheb.

Debunking the myth that Dr. B R Ambedkar is just an emancipator of Dalits.
Reviewed in India on September 11, 2019
Perhaps the greatest irony of this country is that the idea of a man with extraordinary proficiency in such varied subjects of his time has been limited to just one aspect of his numerous contributions. The emancipation of Dalits is just one out of many feathers in his cap. This work helps the reader to understand The Real Ambedkar.
