The third revision updates this classic biography of India's exemplar of non-violent political action, and has been enhanced with a new cover, revised text, and more than 70 photographs, many not previously published elsewhere. At 23, Mohandas K. Gandhi left India for South Africa, where he hoped to leave his mark as a young lawyer. Ten years later he returned to India, no longer as M.K. Gandhi, but as Mahatma, "great soul," the acknowledged leader of 100,000 followers who pioneered one of history's greatest experiments: "satyagraha," war without violence. Easwaran, author of many books on the spiritual life, including "Meditation", a highly popular basic text, focuses on Gandhi's personal transformation from fumbling student and struggling lawyer to the nonviolent leader who led India's successful struggle for independence.
