Jolly J. Arthasastra of Kautilya. Vol. II. Naya Candrika

Lahore: Moti Lal Banarsi Das. 1924. — 328 p.The term prayasas "for the most part" seems to refer to the earlier works on Polity, the majority of which have been used by the present writer
for his own composition. This clause recurs at the beginning of Vatsyayanas Kamasutra, and is one of the many phrases, which as well,
at the whole plan of his work , Vatsyayana seems to have borrowed from the present work.
