This text is an appeal to Christians concerned with justice in the Third World and in the West to recognize the relationship between evangelism and social reform. It is not about people in the Third World but is written by an Indian struggling to apply his faith in a poverty-stricken country. Combining popular theology with personal anecdotes, "Truth and Social Reform" discusses the relationship between evangelism and social action and underlines the supernatural dimension to effective social reform. It will be of interest to people involved in Christian "social conscience" movements such as CARE, Tear Fund, Life and Christian Impact. The author has also written "Dear Rajan - Letters to a New Believer" and "The World of Gurus".

Endorsements:"This is an extremely significant piece of work with huge global implications. Vishal brings a timely message." (Ravi Zacharias, author, Walking from East to West and Beyond Opinion)
"In polite society, the mere mention of the Bible often introduces a certain measure of anxiety. A serious discussion on the Bible can bring outright contempt. Therefore, it is most refreshing to encounter this engaging and informed assessment of the Bible's profound impact on the modern world. Where Bloom laments the closing of the American mind, Mangalwadi brings a refreshing optimism." (Stanley Mattson, founder and president, C. S. Lewis Foundation) 
"Vishal Mangalwadi recounts history in very broad strokes, always using his cross-cultural perspectives for highlighting the many benefits of biblical principles in shaping civilization." (George Marsden, professor, University of Notre Dame; author, Fundamentalism and American Culture) 
"The Indian perspective is a breath of fascinating fresh air for American readers. I wish and pray that it finds readers willing to have their minds shaken and their hearts, yes, their hearts, stirred as well." (James W. Sire, author, The Universe Next Door and Habits of the Mind) 
"This book is well overdue! If there is one book that has shaped Europe's art, architecture, commerce, education, ethics, family life, freedom, government, healthcare, law, language, literature, music, politics, science, social reform, and much more, it is the Bible. Yet biblical illiteracy is almost universal in Europe today. We need Vishal's clear, prophetic, Eastern voice to jolt us back to reality before our rich biblical heritage slips beyond our grasp." (Jeff Fountain, director, Schuman Centre for European Studies, the Netherlands) 
"Vishal's book is one of a kind-vast in scope, penetrating in its depth, and prophetic in its message. If we fail to listen and recover the importance of the Bible in personal and public life, then the sun may set on the West. This book is a tract for our times and a must-read for anyone concerned with impacting our culture." (Art Lindsley, author, C. S. Lewis's Case for Christ)
