この本について

"In his latest book, What young India wants, Chetan Bhagat asks hard questions, demands answers and presents solutions for a better, more prosperous India. Aout the book Why do our students regularly commit suicide? Why is there so much corruption in India? Can't our political parties ever work together? Does our vote make any difference at all? We love our India, but shouldn t some things be different? All of us have asked these questions at some time or the other. So does Chetan Bhagat, India's most loved writer, in What young India wants, his first book of non-fiction. What young India wants is based on Chetan Bhagat's vast experience as a very successful writer and motivational speaker. In clear, simple prose, and with great insight, he analyses some of the complex issues facing modern India, offers solutions and invites discussion on them. And, at the end, he asks this important question: Unless we are all in agreement on what it is going to take to make our country better, how will things ever change? If you want to understand contemporary India, the problems that face it, and want to be a part of the solution, What young India wants is the book for you."--Publisher description.

This book is by the author of "3 idiots". The book consists of many essays by him. Topics covered are regarding society, politics and youth in India

It gave me lots of insights to India from the viewpoint of Indian youth. Especially, I was impressed with the speech called "Sparks". That was for a ceremony in university in India.

- Next Diwali, when you pray, ask not for money but for Lakshmi.
- There was so much to be curious about. I call this excitement the 'spark'. Give your spark the fuel, continuously. Guard against storms.
- Hindi is our mother, English our wife, and it is possible to love both.
- Talent conflicts with the traditional Indian caste system.
- Lerds(Liberal Arts) and Nerds must join hands to build a better India.


きっとうまくいく(3 idiots)の作者による一冊です。多数のエッセイが収められており、話題はインドにおける社会、政治、そして若者に関してです。こう言った見方をするんだーと大変勉強になりました。特に大学向けのスピーチ原稿「Sparks」にはグッときました。ジョブスのstay hungry, stay foolishに通ずるものがあります。

- 次のディワリにはお金を願うのではなく、ラクシュミに祈ろう。
- 小さいころ、色々興味をひくものがあったはず。これらを目の前にした時の興奮が「スパーク」。気を付けないとそれらのスパークはどんどん消えて行ってしまう。自分で常に燃料を与えよう。嵐が来てもそれが消えないようにしよう。
- ヒンディは我々の母、英語は妻、どちらも愛することは可能だ。
- 才能重視の考え方はインドのカースト制度と衝突してしまう。でも才能重視に移行しないとインドに未来は無い。
- Lerds(いわゆる文系、政治家向けの人々)と技術オタクが手を取り合わないといけない。
