Roger Boesche is the Arthur G. Coons Professor of the History of Ideas at Occidental College. He is the author of Theories of Tyranny: Plato to Arendt (1996), The Strange Liberalism of Alexis de Tocqueville (1987), and Alexis de Tocqueville: Selected Letters on Politics and Society (1985).
This is a valuable and insightful study of one of the world's
neglected classics of political philosophy. Boesche is to be
commended for bringing Kautilya's masterpiece to the attention of
the Western reader.
