Here is a book guaranteed to generate both interest and discussion. For the elderly, it provides a glimpse of the "good old days". For the younger generation, an awareness of how things were six decades ago and the almost unrecognizable changes that have come about. In its sweep, the book is indeed extremely varied, touching virtually all major aspects of life–from the changed Delhi to ones younger days; career choice to married life; home entertainment to communications; media to the political and economic scenes; priorities in life to health and medical facilities; film industry to tourism; the bureaucracy to defence forces. While the focus is on the Indian scene, a comprehensive review of the changed international scenario is also talked about. Without too many technicalities, the book in a lucid and racy style will definitely make you relish the past, think over the present and delve into the future as the author does in the concluding chapters. Here is a book with universal appeal and a message for all age groups, including those guiding the nation's destiny. A must read that is bound to make you ponder over so many aspects of life.
