This is the best work by the versatile author on the subject of Problems of Indian Defence. The book examines how a strong defence system can be built up? What is involved in terms of national efforts in the new millennium? Political changes and advances in technology affect the defence organization, therefor the pattern of India's defence, Panikkar writes has to be based on the total effort of the nation on all essential fronts. It is a rare analysis of the subject. A must-read book.
