Manish Tully: Book Review

The Go-Giver: by Bob Burg and John David Mann This book is indeed a masterpiece. I request the readers of this book to carefully understand the text and apply the laws.  This book is a story of a guy named Joe, an ambitious young man who always wanted to make big, but was facing lot to impediments, and then he met the “Chairman” his Mentor, who changed his way of thinking and Joes' life changed for ever. Few quotable lines from the book: “Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment"-this is the Law of Value: ”  “The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving” Everyone must read this book. It contains certain important principles of business, friendship, and relationship. I must say this is one 10/10 book. Must read.  Cheers, Manish

A Hermit in the Himalayas: by Paul Brunton Yesterday, I concluded reading this book. Paul in this book is simply describing his experience of staying in Himalayan region of Tehri and other nearby places.

These women came out to share their personal account of horrors of war, and wish this never ever happen again.
