The Positive Background of Hindu Sociology c3.255

c3.255

The public lectures and interviews may be regarded as Professor Sarkar's addresses or open letters, so to say, to the Bengali, and very often, to the Indian people. From beginning to end the *Positive Background of Hindu Sociology* has grown as the work of a scholar who is a man at the service of the masses. The results of his publications in the scientific journals of India, Europe and America have always been communicated by him to the people in and through their most diverse institutions and organs. It is from the people, again, that he has derived the problems for investigation and research. Altogether this book is the product not merely of researches carried on in libraries but also of intercourse with men and things.
