"Ignited Minds: Unleashing the power within India" by Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam - A book Review

Hello there,
Welcome, how you doing? Reading a good book is the best job and justice you can do to your free times so, would you like to read a review, please go on:

I recently bought this book and read it once. I have plans to read this in future again because, this book is quite impressive and inspiring. I will post when I read it again.

Book Title: Ignited Minds
Author: Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
ISBN: 978-01-4302-982-3
Publisher: Penguin Books India
e-ISBN: 978-81-8475-849-8
                                                                                                
There are very few people in India who wrote their Autobiographies, now this is not a complete Autobiography but, is written in a manner that it acts like an Autobiography as well as the self help book.

Dr. Kalam is previous president of India and previously he has worked with DRDO and ISRO mainly.  He is the man behind India's famous missiles and Satellite Launch Vehicles. Well, I can't remember much names of the missile like Agni and planes like Teja because, they are more familiar to a person from Aeronautical field.

What I remember about Dr. Kalam from this book is that he is a brilliant personality who has a keen desire to see India as the developed nation in 2020. He has written this book to inspire the children, teachers and parents of this country who has more young manpower capital than the old manpower capital to have a vision and enough time to achieve that.

The contents of this book are as follows:
Ignited minds
1. The Dream and the Message
2. Give us a role model
3. Visionary Teachers and Scientists
4. Learning from Saints and Seers.
5. Patriotism beyond Politics and
6. The knowledge Society
7.Getting the forces together
8. Building a New State
9. To my countrymen
-Epilogue
-Song of Youth
-Acknowledgement

This book is quite low priced and a good read. Vocabulary used the Dr. Kalam is simple because the book is specifically written for children, Teachers and parents so, it has to be simple.

                                                                                             
 This is a good and short read so, to read it in either digital format or in Paperback format click on the link to the book on the online store, given to the right.

Thank you for your visit!
