Excerpt from Public Administration in Ancient India: A Thesis Approved by the University of London for the Degree of D.Sc. Econ
The object of this book is to give within a small compass all the important facts relating to the administrative system of Ancient India. To make the account complete, a few of the political ideas of the early Hindus have been briefly noticed here. The period mainly dealt with in this work is the millennium 500 B. C. to 500 A. D., but, occasionally, references have been made to earlier and later periods. Nothing has been said here which is not supported by reliable evidence. Sanskrit passages have been transliterated in accordance with the system adopted at the Geneva Congress, which system has also been applied, with some accommodations, viz. sh for s, ri for r, in citation of Sanskrit terms and expressions; but, for the convenience of non-Sanskritists, all proper names have been transliterated, except for indications of vowel length, in the simple and ordinary way.
