About this title

Synopsis:

By a noted philosopher and scholar, this new study is a thorough re-examination of Gandhi and his views. In this book the author relates Gandhi's response to the challenge of religious diversity to his awareness of other pluralities social, economic and political. To Gandhi, religion was not an isolated marker of identity.
