Prashant Bhushan - The Case that Shook India: The Verdict That Led to the Emergency.Chintan Chandrachud - Cases That India Forgot.Justice AK Ganguly - Landmark Judgments that Changed India.Zia Mody - 10 Judgements That Changed India.The Reading List (List not exhaustive and not in any particular order of preference) I would also like to thank the numerous kind-hearted law students, advocates and other reading enthusiasts on the internet who have helped me shape and share this list! Most importantly, I would like to thank Radhika Roy, Vikram Hegde, Anuj Bhuwania, Bhawna Gandhi, Apar Gupta, Vasundhara Sirnate, Afreen Alam and Arushi Singh for taking out the time and helping me curate this list. If you have any suggestions for the list, please reach out to me on Twitter. This is my humble attempt to make the study of law a bit easier and bit more enjoyable - for law students across India and also, for me.
It shall be updated at regular intervals with newer book suggestions, as well as with sub-lists in different areas of study such as race, culture, finance, etc. The list is not permanent and is supposed to be ever evolving. They were requested to add their book suggestions from various areas of the law the result of which is a diverse and extensive list of books written by both domestic and foreign authors. I then shared the editable Google Docs page with numerous members of the legal fraternity. For example: Anuj Bhuwania's Courting the People. I created a Google Docs page and added a few books that I felt were important reads. The books mentioned in the list are reading suggestions by practicing advocates, journalists and leading academics.
The list aims to help students and aspiring litigators to cut through the numerous books available and focus on the ones that really matter. The Reading List Project is an effort to collate and curate the most exhaustive, robust and valuable reading list for law students and aspiring litigators in India. To read a good book, you should first know that the book exists. Kannabiran's Wages of Impunity on any of these widely circulated online lists.
For example: I never found a must-read like K.G. Also, while a number of reading lists are already available online, many of them are generic, shallow and often cater to a non-Indian reader base. To fill this void of knowledge, most law students take to reading - only to realize that they do not know what they should or shouldn't read. While this helps in creating a basic understanding, it is in no way enough. Colleges and universities often teach foundational theories and concepts with a few basic procedural and substantive laws. Most law students in India find their legal education to be outdated and incomplete.
