Preface
The treatment has throughout been dispassionate, critical and arresting. His acquaintance with the subject is deep and extensive. He bas strictly followed the maxim na'mūlam likhyate kiñcin nå'napekṣitam uchate. The style is lively. All this has made the present work a brilliant treatise on the subject.
We are grateful to Dr. G. C. Pande for these three lectures which he prepared at our instance. I have no doubt that the students teachers and others interested in the subject will find this book interesting and intsructive.
