बेटाई जी. के. भट्ट की 'रस थिअरी ऐण्ड अलाइड प्रॉब्लम्स' की समीक्षा करते हैं, जो बड़ौदा के टैगोर पीठ के व्याख्यानों के नौ अध्याय हैं। वे भरत के रससूत्र तथा रसनिष्पत्ति के चार मतों से अभिनवगुप्त तक लेखक का अनुसरण करते हैं और पुस्तक के मूल्य पर खेद करते हैं। Betai reviews G. K. Bhat's Rasa Theory and Allied Problems, nine short chapters from his Tagore Chair lectures at Baroda. He follows Bhat through Bharata's rasasūtra and the four classical explanations of rasaniṣpatti to Abhinavagupta, and regrets that the university priced the book beyond students.
