Millenium Trilogy (Stieg Larson), for introducing the world of Swedish fiction. 2. State of fear (Micheal Crichton), for providing a different perspective of environmentalism 3. The world is flat (Thomas L Friedman), for being an eye-opener into the topic of Globalisation 4. India 2020: A Vision for the new Millennium (A P J Abdul Kalam), for planting a dream of prosperous India, long before NaMo came into spotlight 5. Chanakyas Chant (Ashwin Sanghi), for generating an interest in historical fiction 6. Who moved my cheese? (Dr.Spencer Johnson), a nice little book on how not to react to change 7. Over the Rainbow (Aroti Dutt), an inspiring travelogue of a social worker around the world. 8. Paths of Glory (Jeffrey Archer), for instilling the true spirit of adventure 9. Robinson Crusoe (Daniel Defoe), the first full book I read 10.
