Title : Bhagvad Gita (A Handbook for students)Students of Indian universities know much less about the Gita and the principles of Hinduism than undergraduates of European universities know about the Bible and Christianity. The present handbook is a welcome step towards correcting this sad situation.The present book has been written mainly to serve as a Hand Book for students. The subject wise classwise classification of the topics on which the Gita dwells is greatly useful for the students, as it helps him to acquire a broad yet systematic view of the Gita's philosophy as a whole. The value of this book for the beginner lies especially in the fact that there is a conscious effort on the learned author's part to refrain from making it a book for scholars.
