Public Service Ethics: A Quest for Naitik Bharat is one-of-its-kind attempt to highlight the multiple dimensions of a very crucial element of human character, the practice of ethical principles as a way of life. This in particular has significant ramifications to the quality and trustworthiness of public governance system. In this effort, the author has brought to bear his enormous experience and background in public service over a lifetime, shouldering a variety of significant roles and responsibilities. Through the twelve chapters of the book, the author beautifully and effectively weaves the related aspects, including issues that encompass corruption, the perceptions about the civil service, role of democratic institutions, and elements of understanding the modern principles of ethics to drive home his point. The author has provided further authenticity to his work by adopting approaches of rigorous analysis and choosing anecdotal evidences. Another important dimension which needs to be highlighted is the section on ethics and decision making. Transparency and Accountability and practice of ethical principles in decision-making is not a matter of choice but a necessity. This book will certainly enjoy wide readership touching large cross-section of the society charged with building a modern India where the practices enunciated in this book would not only give a quantum leap to its prestige among the comity of nations, but in also making the nation competitive in a multiplicity of global endeavours.
