This copy has been signed 'Anand 2/21/11 - Bangalore' on the title page with no other dedication. A really good look into all the changes going on as India modernises. Business - is there an objective yardstick for judging right and wrong? In families as they change from family obsession to more open. In marriages from being selected by your parents to chosen by you for love. Being ambitious compared to accepting one's situation as in the past. It's so interesting to learn about this economic giant who is changing so fundamentally. Plus the differences between living in the USA and in India.

He has been honoured twice by the Society of Publishers in Asia for opinion and feature writing, by the South Asian Journalists Association for business reportage, and by the Indo-American Society for promoting cross-cultural understanding. In 2011, he published India Calling: An Intimate Portrait of a Nation's Remaking (Fourth Estate) about returning to the India his parents left. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife Priya Parker. Ref HHH 3. Signed by Author(s).
