First published in 1939, this book sets out to refute some of the
'unjust charges laid at India's door' and correct the 'false
impressions' that prevailed at the time. The author argues that the
distorted view of the social conditions in India in the
contemporary press and literature were detrimental to the
relationships between East and West. Attempting to give a picture
of the true state of affairs, they show that Hinduism was reforming
from within and that it was unjust to still equate it with earlier
periods. The Depressed classes, women's rights, child marriage,
Caste and Kalighat are all examined in detail. The book will be
interest to students of colonial India and social history.
