Just wondering if anybody here has read this book- Ignited Minds by President of India A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. If yes, kindly provide some reviews and if possible excerpts of first few pages. I am contemplating if its worth decorating my bookshelf with or shall I just leave it for Banes & Noble or Amazon for hat matter...hehe..Ok! that was a bad joke...On a serious note, any kind of information would be highly appreciated. Thanx!

Here is the synopsis/review of "Ignited Minds" :) Enjoying reading!

Thanx Flippu...as always tried my best bets on Amazon and Google...didn't find anything useful (excerpt wise speaking)...may be because I wasn't patient enough..... :-(...but again some Sajhaite reviews would've surely come handy ...Anyway, thanx for the pics as well...looks like u had a fun-filled Dashain like I did ..:-)

Cheers to "Happy Friday!"

mero bichar ma the characters n the plot r like this

Prologue
The hypothalamus is one of the most important parts of the brain, involved in many kinds of motivation, among other functions. The hypothalamus controls the "Four F's": fighting, fleeing, feeding, and mating.

hero = abdul
heroni = adiba
daku = parents, landlords, hired gundas
hero's fav weapon = pen
flash point = parents hire local gundas to separate abdul and adifa

Epilogue
Compassionate cure is the best of all psychotherapy, in my opinion.... As well might we expect a Abdul and Adifa to recover without love as to recover without hate.... The sound man needs work to keep him sound, but the nervous invalid has an even greater need of work to draw him out of his isolation, and to stop the miseries of doubt and self-scrutiny, to win back self-respect and the support of village-folks.
