Synopsis Gandhi-Jinnah Talks is not only a book on an important phase of our contemporary history, but it reveals the facts of that period effectively. With utmost ease the author explores the psyche of two great personalities, who shaped the destinies of this sub-continent. It helps us to understand divergent opinions that surfaced in the talks and circumstances that led to partition. It captures vividly the historical moments in an intimate manner without loosing sight of the political scenario of that period.

The text of conversation has many layers of meanings which need to be connected, explored and reconstructed by the historians as well as by the students of history. The author has taken up the challenge to do so. Wherever, he felt it necessary, he peeped into the layers and reviewed the process underneath. At times, he has synchronized his textual readings with views and reviews expressed by other leaders.
