The author of the book was a lecturer in Mathematics at the Banaras Hindu University before joining the Indian Foreign Service. He has given expression to his understanding of the original and genuine caste system, the Vedic way and approach to human life; the tradition of Sati, its misunderstanding and misrepresentation, wrong notions spread by the Manusmriti. He feels concerned about the Dalits and their emancipation as also about the ills that beset the Hindu society today and is deeply committed to their removal.
