Writer: Hamish McDonald
Genre: Biography
The book is a fabulous collection of statistics as India tried to establish herself in the post independence era. The controversial rise of Dhirubhai Ambani and his Reliance industries forms the crux of the book. The book covers his meteoric rise from the small village of Chorwad to the spunky office at Nariman Point.
Being a biography, as usual I read it with a detached sense of belonging for I usually never form an opinion or comment on a second person's view about a third person :)
Read the book, do not let tthe statistics scare you. The book has some big names like Ramanth Goenka, Gurumurthy, Rajiv Gandhi, Pranab mukherjee, etc being mentioned quite often. You will really find it quite accurate if you manage to google the facts. A good read whatsoever
