Turning Points: A Journey Through Challenges by A.P.J. Abdul Kalam

Turning Points: A Journey Through Challenges by A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book that I have read written by the great scientist Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam . The first book Wings of fire introduced us to an aspiring Scientist and the challenges he faced . His hard work, his love for the country and the dedication for the development of the nation. The technical victory he had with all his team , putting India in the world map. His contribution towards building a strong and determined India. But that was not all.

Turning points showed us that Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam was not just a scientist , he was also a visionary. He dreamt of a successful nation. Not just technically developed but overall development which included easy access to basics amenities and all the fundamentals services provided to all without any difficulties.

This book describes the tenure of his presidency and how he Aimed and worked for the plan of a developed nation by the year 2020. He was a great man , no doubt of it but this book made me respect him more for the ideologies he had and how important was the country and the people of India was for him.

This book took a little time for me to read. It is very well written but i think the Wings of fire was a bit more interesting than this.

I rate this book a 4.5 star
