This is one the first books I read, I have a lot of respect for this great man, who is the president of India.
Its an inspiring story to know about the person who started off from a tiny village in Rameshwaram and is now the First citizen of India, staying in NewDelhi.
The book gives a detailed account of the life of this great man, right from his birth to his education, his dreams, his work and then his acievements.
Some people feel, the book becomes less of his life story and more of the scientific milestones of the Indian defence. But that is what his life is about.. his life is all about those marvellous achievements that are part of Indian Defence now.
The book is a very motivating one, and gives a lot of messages to those who read it. The main message that I got from this book is - "Chase your Dreams".
When you look at the chapters where he mentions about his mentors like - Satish Dhawan, Vikram SaraBhai, you realize how great these people were. How they nurtured young talent. This is exactly what I feel is missing now a days. The most touching instance for me in the book is that in which, the destined launch was flopped. It was a gr8 leadership lesson that I picked through this instance from the book.
You can find many more such instances in the book which are worth reading.
