About the book

This title places the Āpaddharmaparvan ('the book on conduct in times of distress') within its literary and ideological contexts. In doing so, it explores the development of a conception of Brahmanic kingship morally justifiable within the terms of a debate largely set by various alternative social movements of the period.
