The book Uniform Civil Code for India by Shimon Shetreet and Hiram E. Chodosh provides a comprehensive blueprint for alternative frameworks and courses of action, based on lessons from a comparative context of three nations. The book also seeks to resolve the challenge of introducing the civil code with continued respect for community laws and their social customs. Most important, it provides a fresh set of guidelines and processes that might be helpful to find a solution of the politically sensitive issue and the dilemma in the formulation and implementation of the Uniform Civil Code in India.
