It traces the evolution of the message of peace from its first expressions in South Africa to Gandhi's later campaigns against British rule in India, most prominently the Salt March campaign of 1930. It argues that Gandhi's blueprint for change must be adopted in the present, as the world craters on the precipice of catastrophic climate change, and the threat of nuclear war hangs over our heads.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA timely book for uncertain times, this work is a reminder of the value of peace in the 21st century.
