Economic policy sounds boring – but it affects all our lives. In episode 4 of The Book Club, Amit Varma raves about 'In Service of the Republic', a masterful book by Vijay Kelkar and Ajay Shah that distills decades of experience of shaping public policy. In their book, Kelkar and Shah write not about how to make policy, but about how to think about policy, in clear lucid prose that makes its complex subject suddenly seems so clear.
