    <body><![CDATA[And I thought Gandhi spent his days spinning wool and dieting...  What I love about this book is that it talks as much about Gandhi the day-to-day political strategist and tactician, as he files lawsuits, arranges safe passage for marchers, works the media and carries on a running conversation with ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/12033746">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I read the 1966 Macmillan edition of this 1950 biography which is still very highly regarded as its author knew Gandhi personally and interviewed him professionally.  It apparently was also the primary reference for the making of the beautiful film, Gandhi. Reading it inspired me to go on to read Fi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/20359352">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Very interesting look at the life of a legend.  Some of his day said he was the most Christian non-Christian they knew.  Also an interesting look at the history of India and Pakistan and how the Brittish gave up rule in 1947.<br/><br/>When you're not busy reading, see what we're all up to on Belly...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6243828">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[How, with a cause bigger than the ego &amp; self, a simple average man can fulfill the greatness that is his destiny. I learnt that everyone possesses that seed of greatness and only when we focus on our cause selflessly can that seed grow into something mighty. Amazing book in the journey of one soul. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/48663792">more...</a>]]></body>
