The writers of these essays―hailing from the US, 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 affect at the world in the second one 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 religious guide.
