Description

It is a comprehensive and erudite work on the subject by the scholar of repute, who has contributed as many as nine books on the various aspects of Human Values i.e. education, culture, literature etc.

There are good number of books on values with the educational point of view but very few evincing to the inter-disciplinary approach. The present one is the inter-disciplinary study encompassing psychology, ethics, Philosophy, theology, culture, education, and management etc. within the circumference of Human Values in Indian perspectives.

Every man has to foster certain values since al his major decisions are regulated by the values he fosters. How to choose values-whether from the set of values prescribed by the society or according his inner psychological obligations or keeping in view merely material gains.

These are a few burning questions bothering every man. In this regard the author has tried to enhance his pragmatic suggestions, here and there, through critical analysis, which are really thought-provoking.
