His intellectual and moral legacy, and the example of his life and politics, serve as an inspiration to human rights and peace movements, political activists and students. This book, comprised of essays by renowned experts in the fields of Indian history and philosophy, traces Gandhi's extraordinary story. The first part of the book explores his transformation from a small-town lawyer during his early life in South Africa into a skilled political activist and leader of civil resistance in India. The second part is devoted to Gandhi's key writings and his thinking on a broad range of topics, including religion, conflict, politics and social relations. The final part reflects on Gandhi's image and on his legacy in India, the West, and beyond. 410 0$aCambridge companions to religion. 606 $aStatesmen$zIndia$vBiography 606 $aPacifists$zIndia$vBiography 606 $aCivil rights workers$zIndia$vBiography 606 $aPolitical activists$zIndia$vBiography 606 $aNationalists$zIndia$vBiography 607 $aIndia$xPolitics and government$y1919-1947 615 0$aStatesmen 615 0$aPacifists 615 0$aCivil rights workers 615 0$aPolitical activists 615 0$aNationalists 676 $a954.03/5092 676 $aB 702 $aBrown$b Judith M$g(Judith Margaret),$f1944- 702 $aParel$b Anthony 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996218163403316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to Gandhi$92577877 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
