Generally, people read only the translation of the Gita by Gandhiji. Such a reading is all right in a way, viz., only to know how Gandhiji would interpret consistently all the 700 verses of the Gita. But to know how the Gita influenced Gandhiji’s entire life including his social, political and economic dealings as also his teachings, there is as yet no book available. This need has now been fulfilled by the present work of Dr. Betai.
