Produktbeschreibung
This memoir brings out the unique life journey in a remote village where the oral traditions and customs taught the children. The school in the village hut with a hay roof supplanted that education. The high school education in the district headquarters town represented the best education offered by the government schools of the time. The moves to the NIT, IIT, and the University of Illinois were a natural progression to learn the latest in electronics. The eclectic work experience with Burroughs, Bell Labs, RCA, Digital Equipment, and Process Software imparted a rich experience in Semi, Computers, Networks, AI, etc., spanning a quarter century. The move back to a second-tier city in India to start and sustain a software applications and service company for fourteen years was the urge to serve the motherland. The last fifteen years in retirement have been blessed with varied altruistic and intellectual activities on a Zen journey to Nirvana! The memoir details the stepwise march towards the ultimate goals while taking into account the well-being of the whole family. It points out some of the pitfalls of both American and Indian societies and how to tune oneself in old age.
