Indian Political Thought: Themes and Thinkers | Third Edition | By Pearson
by Himanshu Roy, M P. Singh
Overview
In the third edition, we have tried to retrieve and resurrect the Indic thought by focusing on the works of pre-colonial thinkers. It also intends to posit this Indianness as the pivot of academic curriculum and public discourse. For this reason, works of four new thinkers namely Sankaradeva, Meerabai, Dara Shukoh and Swami Sahajanand Saraswati have been added to this edition.
They represent different regions of India but, as said earlier, there is a common running theme of social integration and social emancipation in their work.
