This book doesn't have clear explanation of what exactly Kauthilya meant.

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.
