Abut the book:-This volume contain book IV & V. The story of a discussion between Nagasena and Millinda is no doubt, if the arguments in the Introduction to part I are of any avail, an historical romance with an ethical tendency. In constant repetition after it had become popular. At present it can only be said that we have a very pretty puzzle propounded to us a puzzle much more difficult to solve than those which king Milinda put to Nagasena the sage. If the shorter version (or rather paraphrase, for it does not seem to be a version at all in our modern sense) that from the Korea be really the original how comes it that the other Chinese book, included in a collection made two centuries later should happen to differ from it in the precise parts in which it the supposed original differs from pali.
