This is a book which can be fully appreciated only by the hardcore law fraternity, law students with a basic understanding of Constitutional Law ..

A Brilliant Masterpiece, one of the best law books which provides insight into the most important cases which have shaped the history of India !!

I am not studying law (though I intend to in the future)..but I am always keen and enthusiastic about reading such books and I saw this book on Flipkart and decided to give it a try.. I have read the book completely and I am speechless! Overhelmed by the content and the descriptive narration of our highly controversial post-independence legal, judicial and constitutional changes.. Nani Palkhivala's qualities are till date unmatched and are most unlikely to be even equalised in the future! He ...

This book travels with life of Nani P with a precise legal acumen making finest compilation of his life, work and contribution to India's legal heritage.

It tracks his early life, meteoric rise to stardom and his journey as a conscience keeper of nation when it was in turbulent mode. Legal summary in major cases with position of law, judgement and its current position makes this book as lexicon of Indian law and tax practice.

Parts outlying position taken by government in fundamental rig...

once of the greatest lawyers ever to have been born.. a must buy.. has all the famous and landmark cases also.. flipkart was again prompt enough with its delivery..

Fascinated by Palkhivala's invaluable contributions of Palkhivala in the evolution of the working of Indian Constution. The case histories of the company law and tax cases could have been better included as a separate book. An invaluable read.

The book is illustrative of the inspiring and illustrious career of arguably world's one of the top ten lawyers ever.
A must for every law student or an enthusiast one.
The book has prominent cases in appendix, chiefly Golak Nath case, Kesavananda Bharti Case.

The fact that the book is co-authored by Soli Sorabjee makes it a good combine of intellectual insight too.

Let me start by quoting G E Vahanvati (former Attorney General for India) about heights of advocacy of Nani Palkhivala --
"One of the reasons was that when he addressed the Court, he communicated with the judge. He caught his eye. He caught his attention. And he dominated his brain."

Nani Palkhivala is one of the best Advocate India has ever seen and the best finance minister India never had chance to have. Apart from his advocacy, he was very famous for his budget speeches in 70's and 80's....

A must for everyone who are working in legal field

Though I'm not a law student I like the way book was written and it has a great collection of marvelous cases.

For me to enhance the knowledge in the field of Law this was very helpful.

The book is great because it is about that individual who is also great, but packaging is super worst not upto the level of flipkart market value, and cover page is torn and damaged. Mittal book agency i think he is of the opinion that he is above flipkart customer value.
