Review “Dubey’s book is a remarkable and witty excursion into a world that most people know little about. It is also the inside story from someone who calls a spade a spade. Students of law should read the book so that they can get a lowdown on the profession they have chosen.” - Indian Legal Online “The book is outrageously funny and part of the fun of reading it is the wildly twisted turn of phrase that you know is waiting for you round the corner of the next paragraph… The book should be in the library of every law college in India… The reader may be outraged even upset but in reading it he will never be bored.” - ANI “The book is a roller-coaster written in simple English without any heavy-duty legal lingo… What sets it apart from the plethora of books on the legal profession is that it tells us how the legal profession actually functions - and not how it should…It should be mandatory reading for students of law especially wannabe lawyers judges and policymakers. “ - Indian Express About the Author Ranjeev C.
