Autor Ananda M. Pandiri
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 oct 1995 – vârsta până la 17 ani
The first of three volumes, this comprehensive bibliography of more than 2,200 entries includes all English-language biographies of Gandhi, writings by Gandhi, and bibliographic sources. A unique aspect of the work is a section on books read by Gandhi, a useful list for those seeking insight on Gandhi. Pandiri has carefully examined the titles included and, unlike many earlier bibliographers, he has annotated all of Gandhi's voluminous writings. He also provides in-depth descriptive and evaluative annotations for the other works, noting content, scope, authority, use, and historical significance.A vital reference tool for scholars and researchers, this volume is the first comprehensive Gandhian bibliography since 1974. In addition to in-depth annotations, the entries include full bibliographic information. Many of the entries also include review notes of the work. Full indexes make the material easily accessible. Forthcoming volumes will include books on Gandhian topics and articles about Gandhi and Gandhian topics.

Recenzii

This comprehensive bibliography will help scholars and others in their research needs for a long time. Therefore, it is recommended highly for all South Asian collections and all research libraries. It is an excellent addition to the library literature.
Whenever I see a publication titled a comprehensive bibliography, as with this volume, I get excited. Another library ideal is the annotated bibliography, and once again the title of this book promises me much. It does not disappoint. The compiler, a retired lawyer-turned-librarian, notes an impressive list of sources used, ranging from library catalogues, published lists, trade catalogues, national and general bibliographies and indexes, periodical sources, and several online sources such as Dissertation Abstracts, Expanded Academic Index and ERIC.
Having been a lawyer in his native India and a librarian in the US, Pandiri, now retired, completes his two-volume bibliography by citing books and pamphlets about the life, work, ideas, and heritage of Gandhi published in English. The 1995 first volume cited Gandhi's own works, but this second also cites bibliographies and compilations of Gandhi's work published since then. The descriptive and critical annotations typically range from 50 to 100 words; annotations are missing only from works that are explained sufficiently by title or that he did not see personally. The arrangement is alphabetical by author; subjects and titles are indexed.
