At present the scholarly world finds a catch on the socio economic history leaving the political history in cold storage. The Gupta period of Indian History is a rich mine of information with dark and glittering segments, requiring a review of the literature every decade. The present work is a sincere attempt in that direction. It is a product of a reconsideration of all the printed works available in English and Hindi throwing light on the most glorious period of Indian History. Apart from thematic approach on the various facets of the political history of the Gupta period, the author has made a penetrating analysis of the rise and decline of the Gupta empire in great detail.
