    મોહનદાસ કરમચંદ ગાંધી 'મહાત્મા' તરીકે જાણીતા છે. તેઓ અત્યંત પ્રતિભાસંપન્ન નેતા હતા. તેમણે અંગ્રેજ સરકાર પાસેથી દુનિયા દંગ રહી જાય તે રીતે ભારત દેશને આઝાદી અપાવી. ભારતના સ્વાતંત્ર્ય સંગ્રામના મહાનાયક મોહનદાસ કરમચંદ ગાંધી વિશ્વ માનવ હતા, તેઓ ભારતના રાષ્ટ્રપિતા તરીકેનું માન પામ્યા છે. તેમણે બ્રિટીશ રાજ પાસેથી આઝાદી મેળવવાની ભારતની ચળવળને દુનિયાના નકશા પર મૂકી. તેમના આદર્શો ભારતમાં અને અન્ય દેશોમાં પણ શાંતિમય પરિવર્તનની ચળવળ માટે પ્રેરણાદાયક રહ્યા છે.અહિંસક સવિનય કાનૂનભંગનો જે ખ્યાલ તેમણે લિયો ટોલ્સટોય અને હેન્રી ડેવિડ થોરો પાસેથી મેળવ્યો હતો, તેને અપનાવીને તેમણે બ્રિટીશ રાજ્યની હકાલપટ્ટી કરી ભારતને સ્વતંત્ર બનાવ્યું. આમાંથી પ્રેરણા લઈ ઘણાં પ્રદેશના લોકોએ પોતાના દેશની સ્વતંત્રતા માટે બ્રિટીશરો સામે લડાઈ આદરી. ગાંધીજીના સત્યાગ્રહના આદર્શે માર્ટીન લ્યૂથર કિંગ જુનિયર જેવા લોકશાહીના પ્રખર હિમાયતી અનેક આંદોલનકારીઓ માટે નવી કેડી કંડારી.

    Dr. Jivraj Mehta (1887-1978) was the founder-architect of Seth Gordhandas Sunderdas Medical College and King Edward VII Memorial Hospital, Mumbai. He devotedly served the cause of these institutions in the unenviable post of their first Dean over an eventful period of 18 years (1925-42). This was in addition to the selfless services that he rendered to the society in numerous other positions of immense responsibility and honour. A man of simple yearnings and exemplary moral rectitude, his life is a saga of perpetual struggle for the betterment of his fellow citizens.

    I met Manubhai for the first time in 1956 in the company of Dr. Ashok B. Vaidya. As an undergraduate student of medicine at the Grant Medical College and Sir Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy Group of Hospitals, it was my privilege to take them (along with the late Dr. Ajit Phadke, renowned urologist) through the wards of my alma mater, showing them ‘interesting patients’. They had asked me to point out ward patients from whom we could learn the art and science of medicine. To have these three keen clinicians as my mentors at that formative stage of my education was a unique blessing. They elicited valuable nuggets in each case history; then examined the patient gently and with infinite courtesy. The icing on the cake, of course, was how they coupled and analysed the facts and findings of history and examination to reach a diagnosis. They proved to be lasting influences on my life and work.

    Manubhai was, by then, already well known for his razor-sharp mind and unconventional thinking. He had suggested to Mr. Hamilton Bailey, (British surgeon and teacher – author of several famed text-books), a novel method for measuring the fixed adduction deformity in the diseased hip joint. Manubhai did so with some trepidation as he was still a student and Mr. Bailey wa
