A very interesting, informative and well written book. Richard Gott, starts with the basic concept and ideas of time travel with an brief explanation to the scientific theories lying behind some of the Hollywood’s successful movies. He further moved down to explaining the various concepts, theories and ideas behind time travel to past and to future. Linking the time travel to the beginning of the universe introduces the reader with many interesting theories and concepts.

Discovery Of India
An excellent book which gives an overview and understanding of the glorious intellectual and spiritual tradition of India and how the British forced the economic, moral and intellectual decline of India by vicious exploitation of the Indian people.
The content of this book shows the depth of knowledge Mr Nehru possess. He has referred numerous texts and books in this work, all of these references was not possible to be arranged inside the prison. He wrote this book entirely in a prison and wrote over thousand pages of manuscript on papers which he arranged through great difficulty.
A must read for every person who wants to make an attempt towards understanding India.

A Search In Secret India
Bruton has recorded his experiences while searching for a Guru (Holy Teacher) who can initiate him into Yoga. Its a marvelous account of how he traveled the whole country as a critical seeker and found some great Yogi’s and spiritual teachers but could not accept any of them as his Guru until he find Raman Maharshi.My own Guru Pt. Sriram Sharma Acharya, who is the founder of All World Gayatri Parivar used to say, “when you are going out in the market to but vegetables etc you check thoroughly for quality, so why can’t you do the same when you go in search of a Guru“. The best part I like about Brunton is the critical questions he asked various spiritual leaders in order to test whether they are actually spiritual or merely taking advantage of the people in the name of religion.
This is a great book which presents multiple faces of India at those times and I would highly recommend it to all spiritual seekers.

Fish
Its very rare that we got to do the work which we love to do and in order to grow in this materialistic work we often need to take on work which we actually do not love to do. Going through this book boosted my morale and made me to love the work which I do. There is a very deep meaning in the small book. A definite read if you are on a low morale.

Beyond Einstein
A perfect book for people who wants to understand and review the various theories related to the Universe and find a single theory of the universe. An excellent but somewhat outdated introduction to the concepts of the String Theory. Written in a simple language, you do not need to possess a degree in physics to understand it. A high school level understanding of science is enough to understand the matter presented in the book.
