Ace Of Blades
A Razor-Sharp Saga of a Family Business Empire, Obsession, and the Price of Greatness. Rajinder Kumar Malhotra—the mastermind behind India's iconic razor blade brands, Topaz in the '70s and Supermax from the '80s to 2023—was driven by one relentless obsession: the cutting edge of perfection. Born into a powerful Punjabi family, RK's journey was defined by contradictions—whiplash volatility, merciless edge, and a family pulled in different directions by ambition and greed. What began with humble Panama blades expanded into an empire that Gillette tried—unsuccessfully—to acquire for over a decade. Yet RK's obsession with the perfect edge ultimately shaped everything he touched. But as his empire rose, so did the personal and professional sacrifices that would test him at every turn. Ace of Blades is a raw, real account of RK's life and leadership, narrated by his daughter, Reenita, and validated by interviews with family, colleagues, and associates. This is not just the story of one man, but a coming-of-age story on three levels: RK's transformation, the rise of India's FMCG industries through the lens of the blade industry, and the cultural revolution of every Indian man who shaved with his brands.

Sree Narayana Guru The The Sage Who Reimagined Hinduism
The Sage Who Reimagined Hinduism is an inspirational account of one of the most important spiritual leaders and social reformers of modern India, Sree Narayana Guru. In terms of his contribution to the betterment of Indian society and Hinduism, he ranks with Swami Vivekananda, B. R. Ambedkar, and Mahatma Gandhi. However, he is not as well-known as he deserves to be, and this book is, among other things, an attempt to remedy that neglect. Born in 1855 into a modest, middle-class family in Travancore (now Kerala) the Guru belonged to the Ezhava caste, which was considered untouchable at the time. The story of how a boy from a socially disadvantaged caste rose to become a charismatic sage with millions of followers is a remarkable one. Yet, the Guru was not just an inspiring spiritual leader. He was also a social reformer who was determined to reshape the oppressive caste system that held millions in its grip. He fought to make the society he was part of more equal, establishing and consecrating temples that were open to all castes, founding schools and other educational institutions, and doing everything he could to empower the lower castes and break the malign influence of the upper castes. Today, if Kerala is one of the most progressive states in the country, plural, secular, and egalitarian, much of this can be traced back to the Guru’s transformative efforts. As the author writes: ‘[Sree Narayana Guru] stands unmatched…as the greatest reformer to emerge from southern India since the incomparable Adi Shankara a millennium earlier, and the most successful champion of the rights of oppressed Hindus in the twentieth century.’

Play Nice But Win
WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER From Michael Dell, renowned founder and chief executive of one of America’s largest technology companies, the inside story of the battles that defined him as a leader In 1984, soon-to-be college dropout Michael Dell hid signs of his fledgling PC business in the bathroom of his University of Texas dorm room. Almost 30 years later, at the pinnacle of his success as founder and leader of Dell Technologies, he found himself embroiled in a battle for his company’s survival. What he’d do next could ensure its legacy—or destroy it completely.

For the first time, Dell reveals the highs and lows of the company's evolution amidst a rapidly changing industry—and his own, as he matured into the CEO it needed. With humor and humility, he recalls the mentors who showed him how to turn his passion into a business; the competitors who became friends, foes, or both; and the sharks that circled, looking for weakness. What emerges is the long-term vision underpinning his success: that technology is ultimately about people and their potential. More than an honest portrait of a leader at a crossroads, Play Nice But Win is a survival story proving that while anyone with technological insight and entrepreneurial zeal might build something great—it takes a leader to build something that lasts

Deng Xiaoping And The Transformation of China
Once described by Mao Zedong as a "needle inside a ball of cotton", Deng was the pragmatic yet disciplined driving force behind China's radical transformation in the late 20th century. He confronted the damage wrought by the Cultural Revolution, dissolved Mao's cult of personality, and loosened the economic and social policies that had stunted China's growth. Obsessed with modernization and technology, Deng opened trade relations with the West, which lifted hundreds of millions of his countrymen out of poverty. Yet at the same time he answered to his authoritarian roots, most notably when he ordered the crackdown in June 1989 at Tiananmen Square. Deng's youthful commitment to the Communist Party was cemented in Paris in the early 1920s, among a group of Chinese student-workers that also included Zhou Enlai. Deng returned home in 1927 to join the Chinese Revolution on the ground floor. In the fifty years of his tumultuous rise to power, he endured accusations, purges, and even exile before becoming China's preeminent leader from 1978 to 1989 and again in 1992. When he reached the top, Deng saw an opportunity to creatively destroy much of the economic system he had helped build for five decades as a loyal follower of Mao-and he did not hesitate.
