520 _aNew Perspectives on Srimad Bhagavad Gita brings to light aspects which will appeal to today's men and women who are seeking well rounded, meaningful and purposeful lives - lives, which have equipoise, grace and dignity, relish the fine sensibilities of being human, and which are at peace within and outside, Prof. B Mahadevan takes an analytical look into an ancient yet perennially relevant text from the perspective of management and statecraft Within its compact dimension, the book identifies key aspects of leadership, philosophy and justification of war, identifies keys to decision making, dentifies how inclusive leadership is about balance - of strength and gentleness as well as of fearlessness and compassion Prof Mahadevan demonstrates how Lord Krishna peels away the layers of obfuscations which hinder correct perspectives of reality in times of stress and strain.
