Many businesspeople believe that India’s national economy will be a dominant international force in the future. India’s vast resources, untapped human capital and enterprising businesses cast it firmly in the role of global economic powerhouse. Nandan Nilekani, co-founder and co-chairman of Infosys, the corporate services giant, offers an insider’s view of his home country’s remarkable progress and ever-present challenges. He pulls no punches in detailing India’s problems, ranging from political to cultural to economic matters, but in so doing, he paints a revealing portrait of a nation slowly coming to grips with myriad issues. This substantial book is detailed, sometimes too much so for the casual reader, but its wealth of insight and information make reading it a worthwhile endeavor. getAbstract recommends Nilekani’s honest assessment of India – past, present and future.

On similar lines he has spoken about many other ideas which could be of significant impact if implemented especially the one on energy tapping around central India. This idea also has a big potential to lead India towards self-sufficiency in energy space.This is one of those books which everyone should read who is looking to explore some innovative options for problems which we may be facing as a country today. It definetly adds different perspectives on looking at the issues.
Though the name suggests the book to be on India but the ideas suggested and discussed could be very much relevant for many other countries who share the similar geographical profile as India has.
