== Summary of Selected Works by Charan Singh == https://www.amazon.in/dp/B08RWN68CS Summary of Selected Works by Charan Singh (145 pages) includes summaries of each of 6 key books written by Singh between 1947 and 1986. For the very first time, this Summary brings to light Singh’s deep and wide range of reading from the time of his youth in the 1920s, during his multiple periods of incarceration in British jails during India’s freedom struggle, and then his long period as a legislator and Minister in multiple Government’s in Uttar Pradesh and Delhi in the 1980s. These books gave shape to his economic and political thought over 6 decades of his long public life. The Summary painstakingly re-creates annotated Bibliographies of each book, as well as traces the origins of Singh’s formative Masters education in History at Agra University in the then United Provinces. The Summary is a companion volume to the comprehensive Selected Works by Charan Singh which is a library set of 6 books written by Singh. A comprehensive introduction to Singh whose ideas remain relevant to an as-yet agrarian India, this Summary is very useful for policy makers, politicians, academicians and students of the political economy of India, development studies and Gandhian followers. “He [Charan Singh] was exceptional ... in producing a substantial corpus of written work, between 1947 and 1986 which contained a coherent and elaborate set of ideas, encompassing a vision of the nature of rural India and of the road that rural India might best take. He was a genuinely productive intellectual, who distilled in his writing a potent mixture of analysis and prescription. ... thirdly, he possessed a special distinctiveness, in combining a capacity for political action with intellectual activity and facility in conveying ideas.” Byres, Terence Charan Singh (1902-87): An Assessment. Journal of Peasant Studies, 15:2, 139-189. 1988 “While Russia produced more than a dozen agrarian intellectuals, and China produced a few, Singh may have been independent India’s one and only.’' Khilnani, Sunil.
