PUBLISHER'S NOTEIt is with very great pleasure and joy indeed that we issue this compilation of Gandhiji's writings on the subject of modern Economic and Industrial Life and Relations, edited by Shri V. B. Kher. The subject is now-a-days very much before the world's eye, particularly ours, thanks to the industrial and economic policy of the Government under their Five Years Planning. Therefore the issue of the compilation is timely and, we hope it will serve the particular need of those who would care to know and plan according to the ideas and ideals the Father of the Nation taught us during the last generation.In a way, it may be remarked and rightly, that this is not the first book issued by us on this subject. Readers of Gandhiji know that we have already till now issued some books bearing on, and touching one or more aspects of, this vast and important theme like Cent Per Cent SiuadesM, Khadi Why and How, Rebuilding Our Villages, Towards Non-violent Socialism etc. This compilation distinguishes itself from them in that it tries to bring all the aspects of the case under one cover in a well-arranged and systematic way, and it is ably edited so as to bring out what exactly is the nature of Gandhiji's philosophy about the socio-economic and industrial problem of the modern world in general and of India in particular.As the material that accumulated together in the hands of its careful and pains-taking editor, for presenting in one range and in their total view, Gandhiji's ideas on this problem, was voluminous, it was thought better to issue it in a few well-divided volumes. The erudite editor has taken care to do so in a noteworthy manner.The whole matter has been arranged and collated under eighteen different sections with an exhaustive Introduction by the learned editor who knits them all togetheriii
