“Reading furnishes the mind only with materials of knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours.” ― John Locke

📖 Welcome to my book review page!
What I Read & Why
Books are my gateway to deeper understanding—whether it’s philosophy, technology, business, finance, leadership, self-improvement, or biographies. Whenever I encounter a new idea in my personal or professional life, I turn to books to explore it further. This interest has prompted me to research a variety of subjects throughout the years.
My Professional Journey Through Books
Before diving into trade, investment, and complex topics like M&A, valuation, and corporate strategy, I began my career by studying sales and marketing. Those early reads shaped my foundation, and I’ve kept building on it ever since.
Climate Change & Energy: A Lasting Interest
During my time at the British High Commission in India, I worked on climate change and energy projects, starting with the influential Stern Review (2006). Even today, I stay hooked on the latest developments in this critical field—it’s a topic that never stops evolving.
Biographies, Psychology & Self-Improvement
Biographies are powerful—they offer a window into the minds of great leaders and the emotions that drive us. I also love books on human psychology and self-improvement, not just for professional growth but to become a sharper, more thoughtful person.
