Dijital Minimalism (डिजिटल मिनिमलिझम)
मागील दोन दशकांत तंत्रज्ञानाने आणि विशेषतः डिजिटल तंत्रज्ञानाने आपले संपूर्ण जगच व्यापले आहे. ते इतके की आपण सारेच त्याच्या अक्षरशः आहारी गेलो आहोत. तंत्रज्ञान आपल्या सोयीसाठी आहे की आपण तंत्रज्ञानासाठी आहोत? असा प्रश्न आता प्रत्येकाला पडायलाच हवा ! डिजिटल उपकरणे, साधने आणि समाज माध्यमांनी मानवी जीवन-संबंधांचा, मनांचा ताणाबाणा पार विस्कटून टाकला आहे. या वातावरणात शारीरिक आणि मानसिक आरोग्याच्या नव्या प्रश्नांनी डोके वर काढावे, यात नवल ते काय. कॉम्प्युटर्स, लॅपटॉप, मोबाईल, टॅब यांसारख्या उपकरणांच्या माध्यमातून सर्वप्रथम समाज माध्यमांचे बोट धरणाऱ्या अमेरिका किंवा युरोपच्या पाश्चात्त्य जगताला या समस्येचे चटके थोडे अगोदर जाणवले आहेत. लेखक कॅल न्यूपोर्ट यांनी ते अतिशय प्रभावीपणे या पुस्तकात मांडले

Dhirubhai Ambani: AGAINST ALL ODDS
Dhirubhai and Reliance's success have been so phenomenal that most people are unable to see beyond he glitter of their wealth. Dhirubhai's success was by no means a walk in the park. He had to fight long and hard for it. And that is what is so inspiring about his life and success. It gives us the courage 'to dream...with our eyes open' as he put it. This is a collection of stories not just about dreams but about the price that you pay for achieving them. Dhirubhai's path was liberally sprinkled with obstacles. Some of them were deliberately placed by peers who hoped in vain to slow down his hard-to-beat pace, and some by fate itself. But unlike you and me who would probably change course after overcoming a few, he on the other hand, persevered, found a way around them, bulldozed his way through the others, but more importantly never, ever lost hope, and was rewarded a hundredfold because of it.

Dhirubhaism
With moderate beginnings from a small town in Gujarat to the founder of India?s first privately owned Fortune 500 company, Dhirubhai is a quintessential story of rags to riches. Not a product of the formal education system, Dhirubhai was known for his astute business acumen and entrepreneurial prowess. No wonder Dhirubhai?s business philosophy was quite different from his contemporaries. This book is not about Dhirubhai?s life, or how Dhirubhai went about building his business empire. Dhirubhaism is an attempt to capture those unique insights that Dhirubhai shared with the author in several interactions during their long association. The 15 Dhirubhaisms put together bring out the work philosophy of Dhirubhai and give us a glimpse into the remarkable thinking process and practices of one of India?s most successful entrepreneurs.
