Mahatma Gandhi By Sujit Kumar Bhattacharya

Sujit Kumar Bhattacharya's "Mahatma Gandhi" presents a detailed exploration of Gandhi's philosophical vision and its enduring relevance to contemporary social and political challenges. This work examines Gandhi's synthesis of traditional Indian spiritual concepts with modern political activism, analyzing how his ideas about truth, non-violence, and self-governance influenced liberation movements worldwide. The text explores Gandhi's contributions to political philosophy including his critique of modern civilization, his vision of village democracy, and his approach to conflict resolution through non-violent resistance. Important chapters such as Satya O Ahimsa (সত্য ও অহিংসা), Sarvodaya Chinta (সর্বোদয় চিন্তা), and Gram Swaraj (গ্রাম স্বরাজ) provide systematic analysis of Gandhian philosophy and practice. Readers interested in social and political philosophy and those exploring alternative approaches to social transformation will find this work particularly valuable for understanding how philosophical principles can be applied to create meaningful social and political change.
