BOOKS

Reading for Reflection
Maj. Gen. B.K. Sharma (retd)
Books should not be categorised as educational or entertaining. An ideal book should have both these features. Unless educative books are interesting it would be impossible to read them. And if the raciest of thrillers don’t leave us with a thought to ponder upon, they will remain in the read and throw category, not finding a place in the bookshelves. Here’s my list of recent books that have caught my attention.
