Infelizmente não consegui abrir este livro. Todas as vezes que tentei meu Kindle deu "tultiz", isto é, travou geral! Nunca mais abri e fiquei muito curiosa em ler. Estava lendo H. Kissinger A oredem Mundial e ele cita Kautilya's. Fiquei curiosa e...muito decepcionada. Nem posso avaliar porque não li, mas gostaria muiiiiiiiiiiiiiito!

This book has nothing to do with Kautilya original Arthashastra, is just a number of selected quotes picked for marketing purposes. The result was that I had to buy again the real Arthashastra.

I wanted a copy of the Arthashastra. This book is composed almost entirely of all notes from the editor/interpreter and at times it's impossible to work out which bits are from Kautilya and which bits are just interpretation. If there's a copy of the Arthashastra out there (plain version, no notes or "helpful" interpretation) please let me know!

This book is a translation of Chanakyas Arthshastra. I don't know Sanskrit therefore as a benefit of doubt I am giving it 5 stars. It is a well binded book and small in size.
