Rezensionen

This riveting book highlights Nehru's role in post-colonial India's first constitutional crisis. Singh's nuanced perspectives comprehensively capture the historical and legal contexts that defined the event. It is masterfully written—a book for anyone who wants to look behind the veil of the world's largest constitutional democracy.
