In this book, Author have presented an interesting and fascinating contribution to the discussion of a subject of great and vital importance.  Author has taken pains to explain in simple but elegant style the abstract notions which form the main ingredients of the concept of Nationalism. He has succeeded in examining the principles deduced from the above study in light of the conditions prevailing in India and applying the same to the solution of the problems with which the Indian Nationalist is confronted.
The book is one which will prove thought-provoking and serve to give an impetus to the scientific study of a problem which has been so far comparatively neglected. The author therefore deserves to be congratulated on having brought about this book at this time and presented to the readers a new and important point of view of looking at Nationalism and studying National movements which unfortunately did not occur to many who have been styling themselves and also working as Nationalists.

Many of the workers of this factory belonged to the untouchable communities. One day one of the workers felt thirsty. He asked a soldier for a mug of water. That soldier was Mangal Pandey. Mangal Pandey, a Brahmin, refused him water because the worker was an untouchable. This was very humiliating for the worker. He retaliated to the Brahmin soldier saying, “ Bara awa hai Brahaman ka beta. Jin kartuson ka tum upayog karat ho, unpar gaaye or suar ki charbi lagawal jaat hai, jinhe tum apan daatun se torkar banduk mein bharat ho. O samay tomhar jati aur dharam kahan jawat.
