Gandhi's Experiments with Truth : Essential Writings by and about Mahatma Gandhi Paperback / softback

Edited by Richard L. Johnson

Part of the Studies in Comparative Philosophy and Religion series

Paperback / softback

Description

This comprehensive Gandhi reader provides an essential new reference for scholars and students of his life and thought.

It is the only text available that presents Gandhi's own writings, including excerpts from three of his books—An Autobiography: The Story of My Experiments with Truth, Satyagraha in South Africa, Hind Swaraj (Indian Home Rule)-a major pamphlet, Constructive Programme: Its Meaning and Place, and many journal articles and letters along with a biographical sketch of his life in historical context and recent essays by highly regarded scholars.

The writers of these essays—hailing from the United States, Canada, Great Britain and India, with academic credentials in several different disciplines—examine his nonviolent campaigns, his development of programs to unify India, and his impact on the world in the second half of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first.

Gandhi's Experiments with Truth provides an unparalleled range of scholarly material and perspectives on this enduring philosopher, peace activist, and spiritual guide.
