Frugal Innovation

In the global business landscape, increasingly defined by trends such as the sharing economy and the maker movement, companies the world over are facing pressure from consumers, employees, and governments to create and deliver first-rate, affordable and sustainable products and services using less energy, less capital, and less time. This has led to the development of a new model for business success: FRUGAL INNOVATION, or the ability to do more - and better - with less. In this seminal book on a revolutionary worldwide phenomenon, innovation experts Navi Radjou and Jaideep Prabhu chronicle the rise of a frugal economy in the US, Europe and Japan, and show how the world's top companies across sectors - American Express, Ford, GE, IBM, Levi Strauss, Marks & Spencer, Novartis, Pearson, PepsiCo, Renault-Nissan, Siemens and Unilever - are achieving great success by embedding frugality into their business models and corporate culture. By doing business faster, better and cheaper, these frugal pioneers have demonstrated how to tap into a trillion-dollar global market for sustainable products while realizing huge cost savings. Featuring over 50 case studies, and identifying, for the first time, the principles, perspectives and techniques behind frugal innovation, this inspiring and significant book is Corporate India's guide to reclaiming global leadership in frugal innovation by generating greater economic and social value while minimizing the use of resources. Reviews for the Book “As the authors highlight, by combining the frugal ingenuity of developing nations with the advanced R&D capabilities of advanced economics, companies can create high-quality products and services that are affordable, sustainable, and benefit humanity as a whole. This [book] provides the essential roadmap for those wishing to navigate this new world. Frugal innovation is an idea - and a book - whose time has come.” - Paul Polman, CEO, Unilever. “This book vividly describes the frugal innovation revolution unfolding in the West.

Building Bridges

When Swadesh Chatterjee arrived in the united states with his wife Manjusri and their baby daughter, he had just $35 in his pocket. A decade and a half later, he was a successful north Carolina businessman at the helm of a company, while Manjusri had a thriving practice as a psychiatrist. They were well on their way to achieving the American dream. Not satisfied with simply being an immigrant success story, Chatterjee decided it was time to give back-both to his adopted land and his motherland. He took on a leading role in the burgeoning movement of Indian Americans seeking a rapprochement between the united states and India after decades of cold war misunderstandings and resentment. Chatterjee helped shape this movement and its strategy and in the process he developed a new playbook for immigrant political empowerment. This memoir is a chronicle of the ups and downs of that movement, a blueprint for younger Indian Americans and other immigrant groups raising their voices in the united states and a deeply personal family story.

India Shastra

Renowned author and politician, Shashi Tharoor demystifies the ongoing transformation of India. This has been a time of unprecedented change in the country. The transformation of Indias politics, economy, foreign policy, media, civil rights, governance and a myriad other aspects of our society and government has been swift and disruptive, sometimes brutally so. Narendra Modi, the nations new Prime Minister and his Bharatiya Janata Party, dominate the political scene, as the Congress once did and are attempting to change the way we work, think, pray and conduct ourselves as citizens of the planets most populous democracy.

What does the future hold? Is the promise of good times a mere illusion? Have we forgotten the democratic, humane, secular and liberal values that our founding fathers endowed us with? Are high-speed trains and missions to Mars eclipsing the vital need to achieve universal literacy, eradicate poverty and provide food, shelter and health-care for all?
