520 _aThis unusual collection of essays dwells upon a wide variety of themes that essentially reflect, overtly or subtly, on the processes of nation building. As a result, the author traverses like a gypsy in the world of ideas to allow his soul to express itself before his readers In this process, the book reveals author's ever maturing understanding of a few memorable poems, the role of inspiring leaders, metaphysical essence of life and society, traumatic events and processes in history. the human quest towards institution/nation building and the likely role of younger generations in shaping India of tomorrow. A gypsy that is hiding deep down in the author's mind continuously makes him restless within the narrow confines of the known world and wandering in the world of ideas appears to be an obvious outcome of his restlessness.
