Editorial Reviews

Review

`makes us think rigorously about the concept of development, for this is really what the discussion on the relation of self and society is about.′ -- The Indian Economic and Social History Review

`an adventurous study, the richest contribution of which lies in the questions raised...It is relatively unusual to find works on Gandhi attempting to judge his system of ideas from an external reference point...philosophically absorbing.′ -- Seminar

`the author picks up isolated titbits from various periods of Gandhi′s life, weaves into them his own comparative understanding of the philosophical traditions from western Europe and India, and presents an agenda to humans for leading a meaningful life individually and collectively.′ -- Contributions to Indian Sociology, Vol 19 No 2
