I have already added this cover of 1990 Oxford University Press edition of Ashis Nandy's 'At the Edge of Psychology: Essays in Politics and Culture' to Librarything and posted some extracts from this rare by important book by Ashis Nandy [Nathuram,Sati,Gandhi].
The book first published in 1980 (in the 1990 edition, author acknowledge that some of ideas may be redundant. But it's for the keen reader to identify those rusty bit ) can be found in Ashis Nandy's 'Exiled At Home' that also includes his works: 'The Intimate Enemy' and 'Creating a Nationality'.
I first read the book a couple of years ago, stole it from a cousin and never gave it back. I had never read something like this till then. I quite liked it.
But the real reason for this post is that I just wanted to share the beautiful cover of this book. It's is by Meera Dyal Deshaprabhu.A quick search found me another wonderful cover art by the artist:
'Science, hegemony and violence: A Requiem for Modernity', edited by Ashis Nandy
