This book is a political biography of Rabindranath Tagore. It identifies the principal threads in Tagore's ideational universe and discusses them with reference to his written treatises. The book looks at the issues that made Tagore a thinker of visions and were complementary to the uplift of humanity regardless of race, religion and ethnicity. According to Tagore, religion, caste and gender were the major deterrents to the socio-cultural uniformity of contemporary India. He championed an ideational vision castigating those socio-cultural practices which impaired the coming together of human beings.
