There is an ever widening gap between these two Indias.’ In this concise yet wide-ranging book, Madhav Godbole delves into what he considers the root of India’s socio-political problems: the lack of good governance, which, he asserts, has never been a focus of governments in our country. Godbole traces the rise and fall of politics and policy in independent India from the time of Jawaharlal Nehru’s prime ministership to present day through a careful exploration of several issues—from defining the concept of good governance as understood universally, to identifying the highly problematic areas of governance that need urgent action and emphasizing how changes in polices can make a marked difference to governance in our country. Author’s biodata: Madhav Godbole (born on August 15, 1936) joined the Indian Administrative Service in 1959 and took voluntary retirement in March 1993, when he was Union Home Secretary and Secretary Justice. His distinguished career included assignments such as Secretary, Petroleum & Natural Gas, and Secretary, Urban Development in the Government of India, Principal Finance Secretary, Government of Maharashtra, and Chairman, Maharashtra State Electricity Board. He worked for the Asian Development Bank from 1980 to 1985. He has been chairman of several committees including the Enron power project, good governance, right to information, and management of international borders. Dr Godbole has a MA and PhD in Economics from Bombay University and a M.A. in Development Economics from Williams College, USA. He is the author of 16 books in English and Marathi, of which nine are in English. 62 <strong>MARCH</strong> 2014
