Spectrum of Nehru's Thought

Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru, the great nationalist leader and the first Prime Minister of India, is famous for his contribution to historical, political and socio-economic thought. The multi-faceted dimensions of his thought include various other fields of national life. the contributors of this volume – L.L. Mehrotra (New Delhi) Professor Rathore, S.R. Goyal, A.C. Angrish, S.R. Bhansali (all Jodhpur) and numerous others are all specialists in different fields and disciplines. They have made a critical evaluation of the spectrum of Nehru’s thought. Though now quite a large literature on Nehru has developed, yet we hope that this work, mostly from the pen of competent university academicians, will be a welcome addition to Nehruvian literature and throw new light on the prism-like quality of his thoughts.
