This book is not Bharadwaj's story. I wish it was. Rather, it is the former law minister's testament to himself to show that he was—and is—well versed in the shastra of law at the very highest levels, quite capable of not just exposing the errors of the likes of Arun Shourie on the Muslim Maintenance Shah Bano case (which occupies a large part of the book), but also the fallacies of Supreme Court judges and politicians (including the legendary A.K. Sen) whom he regarded as adversaries and subversives.
