QUALITY AND LANGUAGE
Language is technical.
Content is factual.
Research oriented and lacks narrative style.
CRITICAL ANALYSIS Lack of perspective
on other Central and All India services.
Methodology treatment of subject is hypothetico- deduction and purely qualitative.
Researches own experiences and observations
OVERALL IMPRESSION
Very informative for a reader who wants an in-depth view of the services.
Overload of data and information.
Lop sided view of the present state of administration.
The book is undoubtedly a valuable addition to the otherwise meagre material on Indian Civil Services.
