Customer Review: This is one of the most fascinating, inspiring, and funny books I have ever read. Branson's style is easy to understand (although there are a few British words), and the tale he spins is absolutely spellbinding. I was up until 3AM reading it because I literally could not put it down. In this... more info
Customer Review: A rambling account of mundane childhood memories which bore the reader, that even his family would find difficult to sit through. What's the point?

Customer Review: This is a book that would deserve much more attention by media and readers than it has gotten since it was published in 2001. The reason for this? It is quite simple; the book goes to the core of a key issue: succeeding in what you do with your professional life while being yourself. Too... more info
Customer Review: Read the subject again. This is a mistake I made, and even wanted write a negative review. Most of the business books I had read starts very interesting, breathtaking, however, later runs out of steam, and you hardly push yourself to finish it.

Customer Review: The story for "ASITG" is based on the Nagin mythos in Indian literature, which has been exploited to the hilt in numerous B-grade bollywood movies.
