” A Man of Two Faces: A Memoir, A History, A Memorial” by Viet Thanh Nguyen

26 05 , 2025 No Comments

Viet Thanh Nguyen’s novel The Sympathizer won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and was turned into an HBO limited series. The recipient of fellowships from the Guggenheim and MacArthur Foundations, his most recent books are A Man of Two Faces: A Memoir, A History, A Memorial; To Save and to Destroy: Writing as an Other; and the edited volume The Cleaving: Vietnamese Writers in the Diaspora. All of them have been published by Hachette India.

How do you even begin to describe a book that is gut wrenching, relevant, and absorbing to read? I read it more or less in one fell swoop, despite many false starts. It took a while to read the first few pages and get my bearing. But once I had figured it out, I just read and read and read. A Man with Two Faces is very moving, very thought-provoking and it truly helps decontstruct the concep of America as everyone seems to think that they know. It is told from the point of view of a Vietnamese refugee whose parents flee at the time of the Vietnam war. Viet Thanh Nguyen is fours-year-old. But he seems to carry within him the experience of being a Vietnamese and a successful American. He has broken many barriers by being accepted for who he is, his views, his writing, and his opinion pieces. He has been true to his identity and not allowed anyone to tell him otherwise. All the while he also recognises the intense sacrifices his parents made for the sake of their two sons. Both of whom ended up living the American dream, but at what cost. Their mother quite literally had had to be institutionalised not once, but twice, and finally passed away a woman trapped within herself. It is a heartbreaking account of her downward spiral. Yet, what is extraordinary is that her younger son, the writer, recognises with acute sensitivity what it takes for a woman to live many lives in one. He refers to her marriage at the age of seventeen as the first time she was a refugee when Vietnam was split into two and then the second time, when she fled Vietnam for the USA. Throughout the text, he is able to draw comparisons between the freedom she had in Vietnam, including earning her livelihood and being able to drive a car, but in the USA, she was handicapped by language and ultimately, her existence was circumscribed by the provision store that she ran with her husband and her domestic chores. It broke her, piece by piece.

There is much else in A Man of Two Faces. It is a combination of sophisticated criticism and a witnessing to modern events in the USA. Also, what it takes to be an immigrant.

The writing style at first is peculiar to engage with. But as one proceeds through the book it becomes fairly obvious that these were previously published essays that are now interspersed with present day commentaries and observations by the author. It makes for an interesting visual arrangement on the page, almost like literary art. At the same it, it is like the reader is privileged to be privy to a dialogue. Ultimately, it illustrates the very title of the book wherein the two faces of the author — the public and the private are in constant engagement with each other in the prose format. Fascinating!

Read an extract from the book published on Moneycontrol to coincide with the fifty years of the conclusion of the Vietnam War on 30 April 2025.

“The Story of a Heart: Two Families, One Heart, and the Medical Miracle That Saved a Child’s Life” by Rachel Clarke

23 05 , 2025 No Comments

The first of our organs to form, the last to die, the heart is both a simple pump and the symbol of all that makes us human: as long as it continues to beat, we hope.

One summer day, nine-year-old Keira suffered catastrophic injuries in a car accident. Though her brain and the rest of her body began to shut down, her heart continued to beat. In an act of extraordinary generosity, Keira’s parents and siblings agreed that she would have wanted to be an organ donor. Meanwhile nine-year-old Max had been hospitalised for nearly a year with a virus that was causing his young heart to fail. When Max’s parents received the call they had been hoping for, they knew it came at a terrible cost to another family.

This is the unforgettable story of how one family’s grief transformed into a lifesaving gift. With tremendous compassion and clarity, Dr Rachel Clarke relates the urgent journey of Keira’s heart and explores the history of the remarkable medical innovations that made it possible, stretching back over a century and involving the knowledge and dedication not just of surgeons but of countless physicians, immunologists, nurses and scientists.

The Story of a Heart is a testament to compassion for the dying, the many ways we honour our loved ones, and the tenacity of love. It has been published by Hachette India.

Dr. Rachel Clarke won the Women’s Prize for Nonfiction 2025. Her book, Story of a Heart: Two Families, One Heart, and the Medical Miracle That Saved a Child’s Life (published by Hachette India) is very well written and extremely moving in parts. She achieves a remarkable balance between telling the account of a heart transplant in two kids (for which one had to lose her life), changing the organ donation law in the UK, and sharing the history of heart transplants — it is fifty years since the South African cardiologist Christiaan Barnard conducted the world’s first human-to-human heart transplant operation.

It was a privilege speaking with Dr. Clarke on TOI Bookmark.

Here is a snippet from the conversation:

I think the heart of good medicine and an essential requirement of every good doctor, is the ability to really listen to your patents, really care about them as human beings. Not just as somebody with a failing liver, failing heart. You need to care about human beings. You need to be curious about their life; their story and you need to attend very very closely to what they say. And actually, a lot of those are traits of a good writer as well and a good journalist, particularly a nonfiction writer.

Also, read an extract from the book on Moneycontrol.

Dr. Rachel Clarke is a palliative care doctor and author of three London Sunday Times bestselling books, including Dear Life, which was shortlisted for the Costa Biography Award, longlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize, and chosen as a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week. Prior to medical school, she worked as a broadcast journalist. She writes for many publications, including the New York Times, London Guardian, and the London Sunday Times, and she makes regular television and radio appearances on outlets including the BBC, among others.

“Rethinking Work : Seismic Changes in the Where, When, and Why” by Rishad Tobaccowala

23 05 , 2025 No Comments

A sea change is occurring—a change so monumental that it is making us re-invent the traditional ideas of where work is done, when work is done, why work is done, and even what work itself is.

We have a choice. We can either be reactive and struggle to adjust to transformational events on the fly, or we can be proactive and control the narrative—reinventing work to align with the evolving environment. Futurist Rishad Tobaccowala has had a highly successful career because he has anticipated and capitalized on emerging trends. In Rethinking Work, Rishad outlines the reasons why being proactive in this era of unprecedented change is the only way organizations will survive and thrive.  Schools, banks, law firms, startups, medical offices—every sector will be affected by the current or soon-to-be-emerging trends and events that Rishad describes in this invaluable guide.

Learn to thrive in a world where the who, what, why, where, when and how of work will be transformed:

  • Who will people work for?  A growing number of people are choosing to work for themselves while others are opting for greater control over who they work for. This will lead to more options both for employees and employers on how to structure their work.
  • What will organizations look like?  Like nothing in the past.  We will no longer have a single organizational model or design but instead have a wide range of operating styles, structures and sizes.
  • Why will people work?  Two-thirds of workers under 30 are combining different gigs to not only satisfy their financial needs but to their own personal satisfaction and sense of purpose
  • Where will people work? In the metaverse. At home. In morphing offices that bear little resemblance to traditional workspaces. With team members in other countries and customers on other continents.
  • When will people work?  Whenever. The 9-5 workday is already passing as efficiency lessens in importance to innovation, disruption, and agility.
  • How will leadership change? We are evolving to a new type of leadership from management focused to growth, agility and learning focused.

While there are many points to ponder over in this book, it is worth mentioning that it would be advisable to always remember that this book is written within a US context, so take from it whatever you deem fit for your context. The book has been published by HarperCollins Publishers India.

Read an extract from the book on Moneycontrol.

Rishad Tobaccowala

When I was growing up in India my parents took me to book stores every weekend and I became a voracious reader and decided I wanted to be a writer. My parents steered me to mathematics instead and said one day when you have something useful to say you can become a writer.

After a 38 year career in marketing, strategy and change management across the world for the Publicis Groupe and for its many clients I have finally written my first book. Early readers have indicated that yes I have something useful to say and so I hope you will too.

My book aims to help readers feel, think and see differently so they can grow their companies, their teams and themselves in these transformative times. It hopes to be a resource and an operating manual of sorts to thrive in a world where both technology and humanity are key.

Every chapter of my book can be read in any order. Think of it as a Spotify Playlist with a theme about how to integrate the story and the spreadsheet as the spine that runs through the book.

Chapters include 1) How to Upgrade Your Mental Operating System, 2) Why Change Sucks and 3) How to Lead With Soul.

This book is not about marketing but a combination of business insights and hopefully wisdom. To write it I spent two years doing research and combined it with my four decades of learning working across different industries and clients.

I hope you enjoy it and find it helpful and fun.

“Chhaunk on Food, Economics and Society” by Abhijit Bannerjee

23 05 , 2025 No Comments

Chhaunk, oil infused with different spices, lies at the heart of Indian cooking. It is just a few teaspoons, but it finishes a dish and gives it its particular piquancy. The pieces in this delightful book can be seen as a literary chhaunk – a sprinkling of ideas and arguments around the social sciences, which imparts its own distinct flavour.

Part memoir, part cookbook, Chhaunk playfully uses food to talk about economics, society and India, and makes unexpected connections, say, between savings and shami kebab or between women’s liberation and the Bengali vegetable dish of ghanto. It is published by Juggernaut Books.

Abhijit Banerjee, economist and Nobel laureate, loves to cook and feed people, and misses India all the time. This delicious collection of essays – light in style and big on ideas – is his attempt to string the many parts of his eclectic existence together.

Fourteen-year-old Sarah Rose was very fortunate to have met the Nobel Laureate and illustrator at Bahrisons, Khan Market in December 2024. It was an unexpected but a pleasurable event. Abhijit Bannerjee did say that he usually does not give his consent to be photographed with others but he was willing to make a concession for a teenager who is interested in reading and cooking. Thank you, Sir!

The author was gracious enough to autograph it for Sarah too.

“Ready, Relevant and Resurgent: A Blueprint for the transformation of India’s Military” by Gen. Anil Chauhan

23 05 , 2025 No Comments

The Indian Armed Forces stand at the cusp of a profound transformation, in keeping with the changing nature and character of war. With the unwavering pursuit of national interests and the inviolable need for safeguarding the nation’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, the armed forces are taking deliberate and sustained strides towards greater synergy through jointness and Integration.

Faith in indigenous capability development, bolstered by original, innovative and critical thinking abilities is the foundational pillar for progress. The articles in the book intensely deliberate over the need for developing indigenised solutions for India’s problems and lay emphasis on self-reliance and Atmanirbharta as the way forward in defence manufacturing for retaining our strategic autonomy.

Creation of the Department of Military Affairs and the post of the Chief of the Defence Staff is one of the major defence reform undertaken in the recent times. The book highlights the significance of Higher Defence Organisation and the need to adopt a whole-of-nation approach towards effectively harnessing civil-military fusion. It underscores how the Armed Forces are adopting a nuanced consensus-based approach towards the creation of the Integrated Theatre Commands and the subsequent advancements in the processes, doctrines and their warfighting strategies.

True reform can only be ushered by changing the old mindset by way of sharing one`s experiences. It is with this objective, that the author has articulated his vision and thoughts in this book titled Ready, Relevant and Resurgent. The book provides a cogent viewpoint to the readers as to how the Indian Armed Forces are transforming to emerge as a future ready force and their steadfast contributions towards realization of the national vison of becoming ‘Sashakt, Surakhshit, Samridh and Viksit Bharat’ by 2047.

Read the fascinating introduction to this book on Moneycontrol.

General Anil Chauhan, was commissioned into the Sixth Battalion, the Eleventh Gorkha Rifles in Jun 1981. With over 43 years of distinguished military service, the general has held various key appointments across varied operational and terrain profiles including the Command of 3 Corps and Eastern Army besides serving as the Military Advisor to the National Security Council Secretariat (NSCS) before being appointed as the second Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) of the country. The present appointment of CDS, with adjunct responsibilities of Secretary of the Department of Military Affairs, Chairman Chiefs of Staff Committee and the Principal Advisor to the GoI on military matters, has afforded him the opportunity to interact with the brightest minds from India and abroad. General Anil Chauhan has drawn upon his vast experience and inclusive learnings to highlight the transformative reforms that our country and the Armed Forces are presently undergoing.  He lays down an implementable roadmap for the Armed Forces to be effective enablers in the national vision of becoming ‘Sashakt, Surakshit and Viksit Bharat’ by 2047. The present work is expected to contribute towards creating enhanced awareness within the Armed Forces and the nation at large about the Jointness, Integration, Atmanirbharta and Civil – Military fusion initiatives that are being fostered at the highest levels.

“AI Valley: Microsoft, Google, and the Trillion-Dollar Race to Cash In on Artificial Intelligence” by Gary Rivlin

17 05 , 2025 No Comments

Artificial Intelligence has been “just around the corner” for decades, continually disappointing those who long believed in its potential. But now, with the emergence and growing use of ChatGPT, Gemini, and a rapidly multiplying number of other AI tools, many are wondering: Has AI’s moment finally arrived?
In AI Valley, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gary Rivlin brings us deep into the world of AI development in Silicon Valley. Over the course of more than a year, Rivlin closely follows founders and venture capitalists trying to capitalize on this AI moment. That includes LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, the legendary investor whom the Wall Street Journal once called, “the most connected person in Silicon Valley.”

Through Hoffman, Rivlin is granted access to a number of companies on the cutting-edge of AI research, such as Inflection AI, the company Hoffman cofounded in 2022, and OpenAI, the San Francisco-based startup that sparked it all with its release at the end of that year of ChatGPT. In addition to Hoffman, Rivlin introduces us to other AI experts, including OpenAI cofounder Sam Altman and Mustafa Suleyman, the co-founder of DeepMind, an early AI startup that Google bought for $650 million in 2014. Rivlin also brings readers inside Microsoft, Meta, Google and other tech giants scrambling to keep pace.

On this vast frontier, no one knows which of these companies will hit it big–or which will flame out spectacularly. In this riveting narrative marbled with familiar names such as Musk, Zuckerberg, and Gates, Rivlin chronicles breakthroughs as they happen, giving us a deep understanding of what’s around the corner in AI development. An adventure story full of drama and unforgettable personalities, AI Valley promises to be the definitive story for anyone seeking to understand the latest phase of world changing discoveries and the minds behind them.

Fun fact. Geof Hinton who co-founded the University College London’s Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit where Demis Hassibis had a research fellowship on the possibilities of neuroscience and AI was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics 2024. It was awarded for “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks”. The same year, Demis Hassibis was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry for “for protein structure prediction”. Interesting coincidence.

Meanwhile, as the book extract suggests, Demis Hassibis, CEO and co-founder of Google DeepMind and Mustafa Suleyman is CEO of Microsoft AI. Both of them were earlier co-founders of DeepMind, an AI company acquired by Google.

Read the extract from the book published on Moneycontrol. AI Valley: Microsoft, Google, and the Trillion-Dollar Race to Cash In on Artificial Intelligence has been published by HarperCollins India.

Gary Rivlin is a Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative reporter who has been writing about technology since the mid-1990s and the rise of the internet. He is the author of nine books, including Saving Main Street and Katrina: After the Flood. His work has appeared in the New York Times, Newsweek, Fortune, GQ, and Wired, among other publications. He is a two-time Gerald Loeb Award winner and former reporter for the New York Times. He lives in New York with his wife, theater director Daisy Walker, and two sons.

“The Fall of Kabul: Despatches from Chaos” Nayanima Basu

16 05 , 2025 No Comments

On Thursday, 15 May 2025, the Indian Foreign Minister, Mr. S. Jaishankar tweeted that he had spoken to the Acting Afghan Foreign Minister Mawlawi Amir Khan Muttaqi. As NDTV reported, by speaking with the Taliban foreign minister, Jaishankar had scripted history.

One of the responses to this conversation that stood out was that of journalist and author Nayanima Basu. She posted a long post on Facebook on Friday, 16 May 2025. I am reproducing the text here:

Four years can significantly affect public memory. When the Taliban returned to power in Kabul on 15 August 2021, global reactions were largely negative, including from India, which promptly shut down its embassy in Kabul and revoked valid visas for Afghans, including those traveling to India for higher studies under ICCR scholarships and medical treatment.

The Indian government, despite multiple requests from former Afghan diplomats and ministers, did not provide temporary refuge to these individuals. Consequently, Afghan students and patients were left in a difficult situation as India prioritized security and viewed the Taliban as an adversary.

I was in Kabul and also in other key cities of Afghanistan in August 2021. Reporting from ground zero I witnessed first-hand how the situation was rapidly evolving as the U.S. withdrawal concluded in the most chaotic manner, marking the end of their longest war. I reported that many Afghans, excluding the elite in Kabul, were preparing to adjust to the Taliban’s return. But they knew India will remain their steadfast friend, no matter what.

Subsequently, I wrote several analyses discussing and advocating the importance of India reassessing its stance towards the Taliban, highlighting that significant global changes have occurred since the Taliban’s previous rule in the 1990s. I also wrote in my book (The Fall Of Kabul : Despatches From Chaos) why India needs to engage with the Taliban, including addressing issues such as women’s education and the implications of regional dynamics, particularly regarding Pakistan.

Read one of my pieces from August 2023 that explores the potential benefits of re-establishing people-to-people ties with Afghanistan in light of these challenges. For further insight, read my book (Available both online and in bookstores globally).

I endorse her book too. It is very well written. It won the debut writer’s prize at AutHer Awards 2025. (Read more here and here.)

As the Literary Director, AutHer Awards, I was pleased that a new voice had been discovered and recognised. I hope Nayanima Basu will write more reportage and publish books regularly. We need balanced and nuanced voices to write about moments in history as we live through them. It is easy to be swayed by popular sentiment, but Nayanima Basu’s commentaries are worth reading in real time. They have gravitas.

Good luck to Nayanima!

“1945: The Reckoning: War, Empire and the Struggle for a New World ” by Phil Craig

14 05 , 2025 No Comments

Packed with fresh and surprising stories, 1945: The Reckoning takes readers on a spectacular journey from the deadly jungles of Burma through hospital ships on Indian rivers and copper mines in Formosa to the ‘lost trains’ of the Belsen concentration camp. As the fate of the world is decided so too is that of the British Empire and in India millions of men and women struggle to decide whether to support ‘the Raj’ or fight alongside the Japanese. In Borneo a little known Australian special forces campaign – secretly controlled from London – goes horribly wrong as questions are asked about whether its true purpose is military or imperial.

Clearing away the haze of nostalgia, many uncomfortable truths emerge – but so too does a new and balanced analysis of Empire at this unsurpassed moment of global jeopardy. An Indian military family is bitterly divided. Will it be the brother who stands by the British, or the one who follows Subhas Chandra Bose and his Indian National Army, who goes on to help build a new and free India?

Phil Craig is a best selling author and multiple-award-winning film-maker.

He studied history at Cambridge university, was a BBC graduate trainee and built his career working for iconic British TV series World in Action and Panorama. Later he held senior positions at the prestigious Brook Lapping production company, at Channel Four, at the Discovery Channel and at ABC Television in Australia where he ran the entire factual output including its high profile ANZAC centenary project. Throughout his TV and writing career Phil has spent many years researching and reinterpreting the story of Britain and its Empire during the Second World War, including his definitive and bestselling account of 1940 – Finest Hour.

“GeoTechnography: Mapping Our Digital Societies” by Samir Saran and Anirban Sarma

12 05 , 2025 No Comments

In an era defined by rapid technological change, a seismic shift is underway, one that is transforming every aspect of our lives. From the rise of digital platforms that mediate our interactions–with markets, with governments and perhaps most importantly with each other– to the growing tension between our online personas and our real-world identities, the forces of technology, geography and society are colliding in ways we are only beginning to understand. Even as technology opens up new opportunities for civic engagement, it simultaneously disrupts the very foundations of societal cohesion.

The digital age has given rise to a new stage for global drama–one where surveillance, misinformation and the erosion of trust in multilateral institutions are playing out in real time. But as these forces evolve, so too must our understanding of how societies can navigate them. Will digital societies endure, or are they doomed to collapse under the weight of their own contradictions? Can democracy as we know it survive in a world where power is increasingly concentrated in the hands of a few tech giants? And as nations grapple with the changing dynamics of governance, how will international norms, laws and institutions adapt? In GeoTechnoGraphy, Samir Saran and Anirban Sarma offer a compelling analysis of the forces reshaping the modern world. Drawing on groundbreaking research and incisive insights, they examine how the convergence of geography and technology —geotechnography — is rewriting the rules of power. The book excerpt that has been published here is an excellent primer to the term “geotechnography”. Read the chapter excerpt on Moneycontrol.

It is a portmanteau word that cleverly describes the coming together of spatial distances as examined by geographers and the world of technology. It is true that technological advancements in the twenty-first century have broken past geo-political barriers to create online/cloud communities. It raises many questions about our realities, identities, security, data management as well as of responsibilities. This is the crux of the discussion in GeoTechnoGraphy. There are plenty of examples offered to illustrate the eight chapters.

These are worth listing as they are illuminating about the flux in this relationship between tech giants, technology, politicians/governments/nation states, and individuals. The chapters are: “Children of Our Landscape: Geography, Affinity and the Rules-Based Order”, “The Death of Geography? Cyberspace, Borderless Worlds and the New Tribalism”, “The Mediated Self: A New Relationship with the World”, “From Censers to Censors: Is Big Tech the New Clergy?”, “Achilles’ Last Stand: The Resuscitation of Autonomy”, “Apocalypse Now: Will Digital Societies Survive?”, “Terminated? AI and Our Human Future”, and “Rebooting History: A Rules-Based Order for the Digital Age”. Mukesh D. Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director, Reliance Industries Ltd., says that “GeoTechnoGraphy explores the dual forces shaping our future: the transformative potential of technology on society and the perils of the contest for dominance. A book that is as timely as it is thought-provoking”.

Marietje Schaake, Fellow, Standford University says that “This must-read book guides us through the dramatic changes of our time”. Nandan Nilekani, Cofounder and Chairman, Infosys, and Founding Chairman, UIDAI (Aadhar) says that it is “A bold and visionary work that offers a profound rethinking of the forces shaping our world.” Undoubtedly, GeoTechnoGraphy requires pauses between reading so as to gather one’s thoughts but it is worth spending time with. Buy it. Read it. Think about it. Reflect upon it. Samir Saran is the President of the Observer Research Foundation (ORF). His research focuses on issues of global governance, climate change and energy policy, technology and media, and India’s foreign policy. As ORF’s President and member of the Foundation’s Board, he provides strategic direction and leadership to the foundation’s multiple centres on fundraising, research projects, platform design and outreach initiatives including stakeholder engagement.

He curates the Raisina Dialogue, India’s annual flagship platform on geopolitics and geo-economics, and is the founder of CyFy, India’s annual conference on cybersecurity and internet governance.
