What I learned: You have to be a very disciplined and slightly neurotic person to achieve major social change. Ghandi made a lot of personal sacrafices. But perhaps even more importantly, he was a person that really made serious changes to himself and to his and his family's lifestyle as he became more educated about the world around him. Something that should be more commonplace it seems. That said, the book was filled with an awful lot of mundane details about what Ghandi ate from day to day etc., which kind of dragged the excitement level down for me.
