BOOK REVIEW (WINGS OF FIRE)
Book
Review: Wings of Fire- APJ Abdul Kalam
About the author: APJ Abdul
Kalam is one of India’s most distinguished scientists. He served as the 11th
President of India, between 2002 and 2007. He was fondly referred to as “The
People’s President” during his term. He has honorary doctorates from over
thirty universities and is the recipient of the country’s three highest
civilian awards – the Padma Bhushan, the Padma Vibhushan and the Bharat Ratna.
My thoughts on the book:
The
book Wings of Fire, the autobiography of A P J Abdul Kalam constitutes an extraordinary
reading for all ages. There is something that everybody can extract from this
book. In this book, the authors tell us the story of a young Muslim boy who has
big dreams about his future and what inspires him to become an eminent
scientist. This real
story tells us the role of family, relatives and friends in helping a person in
achieving his goals. Apart
from the very indicative title, the chapters of the book are also touching
–orientation, creation, propitiation, and contemplation.
Orientation contains
32 years of his early life – days as a child, going through adolescence and
getting into rocketry. His description of the people, who shaped his life,
interweaving religion and education, is a charming part of the book that almost
nobody would miss reading.
Chapter 2
entitled ‘Creation’ describing the next seventeen years till 1980 covers his struggle at
ISRO going from one-engineer-amongst-many to the successful project director of
SLV bringing pride to the nation through the technological achievement of
putting a satellite in the orbit.
The next ten
years are set out in chapter 3. These constitute the outstanding
accomplishments at DRDL. The way he transformed the laboratory from one which
had a weak heart with little confidence to one which felt a sense of strong
self-esteem and could feel proud by contributing developed missile systems to
the services, is a remarkable saga.
The last
chapter entitled ‘Contemplation’ contains
a condensation of ideas and thoughts arising out of his colourful life, the
awards that he received (the highest honour, namely Bharata Ratna that he
received does not find a mention in this book) and some messages for the future
generation.
The author
through this book and the various chapters builds a quick rapport with the
reader, who is spellbound. It stresses on the point that the youth should not
get disheartened by failures. According to him, source of hidden knowledge is
within us, with whom we should communicate. It is an inspirational book for
everyone, especially the youth, with a message not to get bogged down in life,
due to personal tragedies and setbacks in professional life.
