University College, Nairobi most fittingly invited Dr. P. B. Gajendra gadkar, the former Chief Justice of India and now Vice-Chancellor of the University of Bombay, to inaugurate the annual Gandhi Memorial Lectures. They are being sponsored by University College, thanks to a generous annual grant from the Gandhi Memorial Academy Society.
This book with a foreword by Dr. Porter, Principal of the College, is the outcome of the first series of lectures. They are a tribute to a world leader, in this centenary year of the birthday of Mahatma Gandhi.
Their theme, the Constitution of India, is most apt, and the author has with great perception demonstrated how Gandhiji's vision has been em bodied and made practicable in India's Constitution; how this Constitution is a living organ, able to accommodate the multifarious aspects of Indian life and thus make it possible for the country to build a truly democratic welfare society.
In the final chapter the author looks at the Kenya Constitution, and how it relates to India's and recognizes many similarities.
