highly recommended

I love this book. I learned about it when Arun came to speak and decided to buy it. Great introduction to the ideas of nonviolence in a very simple and short (read it the first time entirely in a single day) format. Have leant it out to several others to help spread the word.

One man's struggle to understand

Written by Arun Gandhi (the fifth grandson of the great spiritual and political leader Mahatma Gandhi), Legacy Of Love: My Education In The Path Of Nonviolence is an autobiographical account of one man's struggle to understand, cope with, and learn to peacefully resist social injustice in all of its forms. Born in 1934 in South Africa, Gandhi and his family were subjected to the wrongs of apartheid while he was growing up. In Legacy of Love, his reflections on the profound power of truth, morality, and the spiritual meaning of nonviolent resistance fill the pages with meaningful and insightful testimony.
