This book elucidates Gandhian ‘theory’ and practice of development. It is an attempt also in mixing Gandhian ideas with social science concepts from the disciplines of sociology, social anthropology, modern communication theory and professional social work by an academic interpreter, analyst and practice oriented author who has chosen themes and issues dear to Gandhi such as rural development, alcoholism and prohibition along with concept of leadership, people’s participation and the role of a catalyst who is an outsider to the community.

Review
....The aim of this book is to elucidate Gandhian theory and practice of development, and to mix Gandhian ideas with social anthropology, modern communication theory and professional social work.
The reader reaps a rich harvest of question for and against the Gandhian philosophy of ideal development and social change, interestingly provoked by the author’s analysis.
A. Ramaiah, The Indian Journal of Social Work, Vol. LIII, No. 2, April 199
