"In this book, Merton has selected the basic statements of principle and interpretation which make up Gandhi's philosophy of non-violence (AHIMSA) and non-violent action (SATYAGRAHA). The Gandhi text follows that established by the Navaijivan Trust with sections dealing with ""Principles of non-violence"", ""Non-violence, true and false"", ""Spiritual dimensions of non-violence"". ""The political scope of non-violence"", and ""The purity of non-violence""."
