Perhaps everyone else has read the above book. I did not know about it; had never heard about it; there was no review of it. It was sold out at the local bookshop where the counter person enquired if I would like to order it the e-tail way. A very nice book, he said. He had read it last year. Today, everybody is talking about Ruchir Sharma's Breakout Nations.
All the same, The India Way, is an important book because it has broken free of the old habit of comparing Indian business practices with Western practices and concentrating on the gap and distance to be covered. Instead, it proudly talks of Indian adjustments. It reflects the current mood of confidence among Indians.
Complete details of interview questionnaires, interviewees etc. in the end are very helpful. The style of writing is lucid but it is standard style to save the book for layreaders. Actually, the book strikes a good balance between academic style, content and popular writing.
