### [c2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c2.8)

The book is presented in the form and substance just as it was completed in April, 1918, but for the amalgamation of the matter published by the author in the \*Modern Review\* in April, 1920, on Paura Jānapada, and the addition of one passage( § 27 ) on a datum from the \*Abhidhāna-Rājendra\* (1919), of the last line of the footnote at p. 33, and of Appendices C and D. The date of the Kauṭilīya (Artha-Śāstra) has been retained as originally given, although Dr. Jolly has recently revived the controversy through his edition of the Artha-Śāstra. On account of the importance of the subject the present writer has re-considered it here.¹ He is unable to agree with Dr. Jolly's conclusions.
