"I read this book along with Ronald Tercheck's "Gandhi: Struggle for Autonomy". Tercheck was my professor at the University of Maryland and he has done the legwork for the layman reader by sifting through the many writings of Gandhi to find the patterns and the many challenges that lead to the writings. To the western reader the notion of spinning our own clothes may seem outdated and even backwards but when we educate ourselves as to what was happening in India at that time the idea doesn't seem so outdated. Much of what Gandhi is warning the reader of about modernity has been magnified with the emergence of "free trade" especially as we see the exploitation of the third world exemplified even more profoundly in the world around us today. Gandhi was ahead of his time and his insights are very useful to us as we look not only at the problems facing the world, but also the problem of individual autonomy within the current political and economic systems. Gandhi had a great deal of wisdom and much of it is contained in these selected readings. This is a must read for anyone feeling that materialism is the most prolific threat to the self. He offers power to the personal truth as he challenges both tradition and modernity. Read it along with Tercheck's book. If you can't find it, I will loan it to you."
