Review
I'm a very big fan of Rashmi Bansal and always her books never fail to inspire me. This book is very inspiring from the first few chapters I read. As usual there are some punctuation mistakes overlooked and it's time the editors do something about it. And the big glaring mistake is that they have stated that Coimbatore is in Kerala. That city is in Tamil Nadu and I wonder whether Rashmi herself made this mistake !!! --sanjeev kumar rangasamy on Jan 28, 2014
This book is about 20 entrepreneurs from villages in India who have made multi-crore businesses. People who started Balaji wafers to a women who established the first Engineering college in Kashmir. Key elements of this book : 1) It's very motivational. 2)You can always go back to it and re-read chapters and derive inspiration from it. Cons : 1) The quality of the pages are bad ( I think it's because of cost cutting) 2) English used in this book goes a little astray and offbeat. But above all that what matters is the story and it's a must have. --Rohit Nair on Nov 30, 2014
Story of each of them is unique and inspiring.If you are looking for the stories of entrepreneurs who started from the scratch and have grown with the minimum resources and in a remote/village/town level place,the hassles the faced and innovative ways in which they encountered,then this one will be the best pick. --GeethaSaikrishna on Sep 20, 2014Rent & Security Return Pollicy
