First published in 1936, The Hindu-Muslim Problem in India is an attempt to analyse in a non-technical manner for the general reader some of the causes of Hindu-Muslim conflict. The book traces briefly the cultural history of Hinduism and of Islam, describes the clash between cultures, and then deals with the specific causes of Hindu-Muslim tension: social, religious, economic, and political.
While the author does not minimise the gravity of the situation, he is not unduly pessimistic regarding the future. There is a way out, if Hindu and Muslim leaders have the courage and the statesmanship to follow it. The book, in its endeavour to face issues which are generally glossed over and unduly minimised should stimulate serious thought. This is an interesting historical reference work for scholars and researchers of Indian history, South Asian history and history in general.
