内容説明・目次
内容説明
A personal portrait of one of the most controversial - and misunderstood - figures in Indian politics, V.K. Krishna Menon. Basing herself on a family archive of letters, personal recollections and interviews with Menon's friends and colleagues, Menon's grand-niece, Janaki Ram explores his contribution to the Indian freedom struggle, to formulating Indian foreign policy and to setting India on the path of self-sufficiency in defence requirements. She attempts to put into perspective various controversial events Menon had a role in, such as the Chinese debacle and the Kashmir debate. The book provides numerous glimpses into Menon's personal life, including little known aspects such as his belief in astrology and his romantic attachments. It includes a number of rare photographs.
