Review

Abstract

Although several books and articles have already appeared on the Naxalbari Movement, the book under review by Sumanta Banerjee carries a distinctive appeal which sets it apart from other works on the subject. Not only does this book merit attention because it is written by a person who was intimately involved in the CPI(ML) movement, but also because it recaptures the spirit of the rebellious sixties when the ideological crisis was deepened by the impasse at which established political structures had arrived.
