Gandhiji's ideas in regard
to this New Education did not, of course, suddenly emerge from his brain in 1937, but
-were the outcome of long years of sustained thought and experience. The present book
relates to this earlier formative period when he revolted from the prevailing system of
education and sought in various ways to substitute it by educational practices more in
harmony with his own conception of the function of education. To understand adequately the
Basic Education scheme which lie formulated in 1937 it is essential to go back to this
earlier period where we can see it in origin and growth. The present book may, therefore,
be said to be a necessary companion volume to the one on Basic Education.
