The book is divided into two parts, with the first part providing an in-depth analysis of the Arthasastra, including its historical context, structure, and content. The second part of the book explores the practical application of the principles outlined in the Arthasastra, including topics such as taxation, diplomacy, and warfare. Throughout the book, Law draws on a wide range of historical and literary sources to provide a comprehensive and insightful analysis of ancient Hindu political theory and practice.
