English Summary/英文概要： The definitive life of one of the most remarkable figures of the 20th century
New York Times Book Review Books of the Year 2014
In this fascinating new biography Ramachandra Guha allows us to understand the personality and politics of Mohandas Gandhi as never before. Showing that Gandhi’s ideas were fundamentally shaped before his return to India in 1915, Gandhi Before India is an extraordinarily vivid portrait of the formative years he spent in England and South Africa, where he developed the techniques that would undermine and ultimately destroy the British Empire.
Drawing on many new sources located in archives across four continents, Guha sensitively explores the many facets of Gandhi’s life and struggles. This is the biography of the year.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本书（荣获“年度自传”称号）将以一种前所未有的方式为你呈现甘地其人及其政治理念。本书作者古哈坚信早在甘地于1915年回到印度之前，他的思想体系便已基本成型。古哈将通过引用四个不同大陆所记载的档案史料，引领我们穿越古吉拉特邦，维多利亚时期的伦敦以及南非大陆，向我们一一呈现这些不同的地域是如何在甘地人生中重要的定型时期对其产生了毕生的影响。全书文笔优美，同时细腻地探索了甘地的一生及其奋斗经历的方方面面。（DC）
