“…(R)arer still is the example of a Hindu writer, who has approached Islam with scholarly detachment… Against this background, the publication of Prof. Sheshrao More’s Muslim Manacha Shodh’ in Marathi is a landmark event…. Prof. More took it upon himself to offer a fair and lucid account of the three main founts of Islam : The life of Prophet Muhammad, the Holy Quran and the Hadis.” - From the column by Dileep Padgaonkar former Editor of ‘The Times of India’ dt. 3-11-2002. “No author of average capabilities would ever have been able to write So scholarly a book on religion with which he bears little or no association. Not a single line in the book has been penned without supportive evidence or reference…. The present work commands historiacal importance. So deep and thorough a study of the Quran and the Hadis - In other words, of Islam itself – had not previously been presented for our Hindu brethren by any Hindu thinker. Prof. More’s work is truly commendable… This book, which Sheshrao has authored after meticulous and thorough study, is an important an unprecedented achievement. It is an invaluable contribution to literature on Islam. An erudite work of this degree of excellence is exceptional… The work will inspire- as well and more thorough inquiry into Islam. If we want non-Muslims to study Islam, we must welcome, appreciate and encourage well-researched works like this publication, irrespective of all differences of opinion… The contents of most of the book are in conformity with the perspective assumed by the Quran, the Hadis and Islam itself.” - From the ‘Foreword’ by five Muslim scholars. “Prof. Sheshrao More is a well-known author and research scholar in Marathi literature.

Air Vice Marshal Suryakant Chafekar's memoir will keep the reader enthralled. This is a story of an upright, spirited and self-respecting individual who had the grit to take on a well- entrenched and callous system that unrelentingly tested his integrity, his faith in truth and his indefatigable sprit. Chafekar's passion for justice is such that he fights the seemingly insurmountable odds with rarest conviction. He has steel in him. Ehile facing an enquiry for a flying incident, he, rather than breaking down, fearlessly decides to follow the path of justice with tremendous moral convition. It is a rare read, at once uplifting and thought provoking. One does not come across such honest narratives too often. The book is unputdownable. Mahesh Elkunchwar
