Book Description
Introduction
The present volume constitutes a set of selected lectures and speeches of Professor D. Javare Gowda, Vice Chancellor, and University of Mysore. The Institute of Development Studies decided to publish the volume for two basic reasons. In the first place, it throws some new lights on several of the issues and problems, the analysis and solution of which form the core of the Institute's programmes and activities. And secondly, it offers an insight, into the personality of a man who has shaped the course of events in an important centre of higher education in India and who has been the head of a small band of enthusiasts to whom the Institute owes its birth and development.

The volume includes reflections on such varied subjects like religion, history, international understanding, social science research, population problem, centre-state relations, land reforms, district planning, University and its relation to society and state, education including University, Pre-University, adult and rural, contributions to Sanskrit literature, contemporary Indian drama, impact of Marxism on Indian literature, Gandhiji in Indian literature and the relevance of American literature to India. The variety of subjects and the effectiveness with which the author has conveyed his message and thoughts are indicative of his personality and varied interests.

Notwithstanding the great variety in subject matter, there is a common theme which runs through each and every lecture. It can be summed up in the following words: There is something that is Indian; it is unique, yet it is universal. All changes social, educational and others must strengthen that Indianans. There is a call for change, but the author cautions against unplanned and imitative change.
