Judging the Judges

This treatise by prominent legal luminaries is intended to review the performance of judges and the justice delivery system in India in recent times. A starting exposition of the acts of infringement on the perimeters of judicial system by extraneous powers is presented. In this book, the current hot topic of judicial activism is examined in the context of delivery of social justice. In a special article, V.N. Narayanan beautifully brings to light the contradiction between the judiciaries urge to restore its power and the urge (rather necessity) to exercise this power to deliver the goods.
