Mahatma Gandhi |
Gandhi an Autobiography |
$9.95 $5.97 |
 |
| Gandhi's nonviolent struggles in South Africa and India
had already brought him to such a level of notoriety, adulation, and controversy
that when asked to write an autobiography midway through his career, he took it
as an opportunity to explain himself. Although accepting of his status as a
great innovator in the struggle against racism, violence, and, just then,
colonialism, Gandhi feared that enthusiasm for his ideas tended to exceed a

high spiritual culture, which not only influenced the evolution of the Western
world in decisive ways but which still has much to teach us today. India's
