<br/><br/> This book is the first complete and authentic account of the Indian socialist movement from its inception in the 1930s to the present from a prominent socialist leader. Surendranath Dwivedy recounts in considerable detail the differences between the Congress Socialist Party and the leaders of the Indian National Congress between 1934 and 1947 and discusses the attitudes of Mahatma Gandhi, Subhash Chandra Bose, Jawaharlal Nehru and other prominent leaders. He examines the role of <br/>NarendraDeva, Harnmanohar Lohia, Jayaprakash Narayan, Asoka Mehta and others at critical points of the movement and assesses its achievements and failures. He discusses the contending trends within the socialist movement, especially <br/>between the anarchists and the  collaborationists, and presents the history of Indian socialism in its proper perspective. <br/>
