This book is written as a conversation from one human to another. It lays out the theory and institutions of freedom.

Brief history of this book. My earlier book, Breaking Free of Nehru, was conceptualized in early 2005 as a single book to be called: A Short History of Freedom. Since it kept growing it had to be split in two. And only a portion of the first part was published by Anthem Press, the rest remaining as Online Notes.

This manuscript is the second part of the original book. This manuscript examines the theoretical foundations of freedom and outlines the pillars of freedom. It then looks at some of these institutions from a historical perspective.

India has yet to get freedom and good governance, but so have most parts of the world. This book is intended to be a contribution towards raising awareness of the importance of freedom to humanity. Our future will be determined by how well we, as a species, understand freedom.
