I have no doubt Ghandi was extraordinary, but the author's own worshipful admiration of the man prevented him from reporting objectively. The author described Ghandi in gushing terms like "his feet scarcely touched the earth and he seemed almost to be flying", as if he is describing a superhero or a saint instead of a human being, which did not, in my opinion, make Ghandi to be a believable character. This was more of a book on philosophy than anything else. The details of Ghandi's life and of Indian history are relegated to a timeline at the back of the book which seems to have been added as an afterthought. Ghandi certainly gained the admiration of the world, but how exactly he changed it remains a mystery.

Nilgiri Press has produced a high quality book in "Gandhi the man: How one man changed himself to change the world" by Eknath Easwaran. Easwaran is a well-known writer who came under the influence of Gandhi while a student. He has also written well about the Gita, the Upanishads, and is known for teaching and writing about meditation, especially passage meditation. In this book, Easwaran, describes in a idiosyncratic, yet, illuminating way, various facets of Gandhi's life. Inevitably, he frequently quotes the Gita, its ideals, and describes how Gandhi, in his view, clearly epitomized those ideals."The second chapter of the Bhagavad Gita ends with a description of the highest state of human consciousness a human being can attain. It is the fullest expression of the Gita ideal. ....They live in wisdom Who...Not agitated by grief or ...pleasureThey life free from lust and fear and anger....They are not elated by good fortuneNor depressed by bad. "Easwaran continues "These are the verses which summarize Gandhi's life. For more than fifty years he meditated on them morning and night and devoted all his effort to translating them... into his daily action. They are the key to his self-transformation" Two aspects of this publication stand out. One: more than seventy black and white photographs, many of them page-size, and a few double spreads. The book, per the acknowledgement section, grew from an exhibition of photographs honoring Gandhi at U C Berkeley, in 1969, his centenary. For this edition Nilgiri Press is using restored images licensed by the GandhiServe Foundation in Berlin,Germany, the largest photo archive of Indian Independence movement extant. Two: throughout the book, there are quotations from Gandhi, giving the reader unique insight into the quiet humor, the steely determination, the indomitable will, the adherence to non-violent resistance of the man. Easwaran adds his personal observation of Gandhi frozen in meditation at evening prayer, of Gandhi's speed and energy in walking. Easwaran was there at the time of the salt satyagraha " to break a statute that made the sale and manufacture of salt a government monopoly ". "The salt march provided brilliant theater. Gandhi and his small band of volunteers took fourteen days to reach the sea, stopping at every village along the way and making headlines....When he picked up a handful of salt from the beach and raised it as a signal to the rest of India, ....the country simply exploded in utterly nonviolent disobedience of British law." The narrative is hardly linear, it traces back to Gandhi's South Africa lawyer days and his well-known struggles and triumphs on behalf of peoples there. His cryptic prophecy to the racist General Smuts that he would prevail, was also fulfilled. Later, Smuts acknowledged as much, humorously. Lest it should be thought that the book is a hagiography, it points out that a young Mohandas Gandhi before leaving for South Africa, a freshly minted lawyer, did not have great success in the courts of Bombay and even drew some derision from colleagues. He was sponsored for the voyage. Easwaran quotes Mahadev Desai, Gandhi's secretary who was asked in amazement by Londoners as to how Gandhi held forth on behalf of Indians at the Round Table Conference for over two hours without prepared notes. Desai is said to have replied that it is because of Gandhi's singleness of mind. He did not feel one thing and say another. Easwaran develops on this point, talking about yoga, and he goes on to remark on the absence of fear and a peace that permeated the Gandhi ashram. An appendix ("Chronology,Maps, and Notes") contains a timeline of key events, a map of pre-independence India, and a few short articles titled Ahimsa, Satyagraha, Satyagraha Today, round out the book. There is plenty for everyone in this 2011 fourth edition, but the rare restored photos alone make this one a keeper.

Though this book feels like it has been cobbled together from different sources it provides a sense of Gandhi's spiritual growth and the sources for it. His ideas and principles are clearly and often repeatedly stated offering the student the benefit of repetition in varied words. I'll be reading it again and again to extract a summary of those. Recommended for beginning Gandhi explorers.

Gandhi the Man is an excellent overview of Gandhiâ€™s life and his push for nonviolent resistance. There are lots of pictures and quotes throughout. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn a little bit about Gandhi.

I was looking for a historical account of Gandhi's life. Gandhi's autobiography does not explain enough of the political and social realities of India during his time, to enable the reader to truly appreciate his difficulties and his accomplishments. This book is the loving look of a devotee at a master, not the account of a history scholar.

Of the several books I read in preparation for guiding an exhibition on Gandhi and Non-violence, I liked this one the best. Not particularly long, but very rich in texts and analysis, in photos and quotations, by an author who grew up in Gandhiâ€™s India and has always remained close through his academic and meditational work. Gandhi really comes alive in this book

This is a beautiful book that tells Ghandi's story through wonderful photographs and a simple and elucidating text. Ghandi appears os a struggling human being who changes himself through hard work. It really is a story of transformation, and it's very well told here. I liked it so well, I used it as part of our study on world revolutions when I was teaching ninth grade last year, and the students also liked it very much.

This book can change your life! It has mine.
