Animal Farm (George Orwell)

This book serves a reminder to all those who believe that revolutions will lead to be better lives. It highlights the key point again and again..whatever be the reason for revolutions, whoever participates in the revolutions and whichever party wins, ultimately the people will always be ruled by the filthy pigs.

One can relate it to any movement in any country..be it the current state of free market movement, rise of Socialist movements...the heart of all these movements was in right places..but ultimately the pigs enjoyed the spoils and other suffered.

Its not just a children's book. It has very deep philosophy for anyone who cares to think and question the history.

The Asocial Networking (Must Read)

http://www.flipkart.com/books/9381115879?pid=jt33f9xa7x&_l=CJHVEqJO3veuHytbACc9dw--&_r=YUuTZuFdK3IW0A%202f6w3ag--&ref=93a9b8f5-86fa-43ea-800a-91dc3ff29c5b This most unusual book looks at the newfound obsession driving people of all classes, countries and age groups - 'the asocial networking' - a must-do mode of entry into a new social order.

The author discusses our vulnerabilities and weaknesses, which are often reflected in the way we socialize on the web. Some people have, however, maste...
