the release of radha rajan's book on gandhi

jun 19, 2009

it sounds like a powerful and interesting book, debunking one of the deified. iconoclasm is great fun, except when it happens to your own little tin gods with feet of clay.

now for someone to write a similar one on nehru. then on indira. and on the sainted rajiv. oh, but i forgot, if you do that, you get blackballed by the entire pseudo-secular establishment. no boondoggle conference trips. no sinecures as 'eminent historian'.

i guess radha doesn't give two hoots about those things.

Just because a computer-savvy person will click on everything in sight is no reason not to put a label below the image saying "click on image to enlarge" !
