review 1: This is neither S. Ramadorai's autobioghraphy nor proper & complete TCS's story, but I don't think there is anyone else other than Mr. S. Ramadorai who could wright book on TCS. It includes how TCS was started and how its business evolved. Author has tried to give as much information as he could but I think not enough details has been shared. This book mostly talks TCS under Mr. S. Ramadorai. Last chapter is more about Mr. S. Ramadorai's vision of what IT could do rather than TCS.This is good book to read not just for people from IT industry but for non-IT people as well. Many a times other IT companies in India take credit for starting offshoring business but the fact is that TCS is the company which started the whole new industry of offshore software development.I ho... morepe other founders and CEOs other great Indian companies also starts publishing their books as it shares valuable knowledge that can be very helpful for students and knowledge seekers.
review 2: Book speaks about TCS in the eye of Ramadorai right from it's early years. Starts interestingly with his boyhood in his village, about his family and his graduation etc. Also the kind of difficulties TCS faced in the period of 'license raj' was well narrated. It makes us to feel how cumbersome the policies has been laid that importing a mainframe computer to India would fetch nearly 2 years from the order, despite paying twice the cost of the computer as tax, custom duties, etc., Hardship faced by TCS on several occasions due to govt policies and the way it has limited TCS's and India's ability to march ahead in tandem to other developed/developing countries is also expressed elegantly. The mentioning of patriotism shown by TATAs are sprinkled almost everywhere as the reverence with his boss Kohli was shown. Some of the best practices inculcated by TCS was boasted. This books made me to feel that; when some people over here (India) talks about emigrate to another country seeing the kind of difficulties they're facing from the govt. policies, bureaucracies, hurdles, etc., Tatas learnt to digest and deal with such things and still able to move ahead in the interest of the nation is really inspiring and earned my respect. less
