Spectrum's Indian Polity is exhaustive and well researched. It covers not just the Indian Constitution but also its working and development over the years in the context of the political system in India. Compilation of information, especially in the chapters on separation of powers, statutory and regulatory bodies, and the working of the Indian Constitution, will be very helpful for students as well as academicians. The flow of the language is easy to understand and the discussion columns at the end of chapters enhance the book's relevance today. Perhaps, there could have been more discussion of topics in the chapter on Federalism and a critical analysis of how the local government is actually working in India. Overall, I can say that it's been long since such a comprehensive compilation of information on Indian Polity in a single book has been available.
