Tina Dhabi:
Friends, I've got the great opportunity of sharing with you the release of the book written by Shri Haulianlal Guite, 2011 Batch Rajasthan Cadre IAS.
Its a book you would never encountered before! Do give it a shot!
'CONFESSIONS OF A DYING MIND'
The following excerpt is from his post:
"CONFESSIONS OF A DYING MIND":
A MILESTONE I'M PROUD OF
On my birthday last year, I got that call from Bloomsbury Publishing House. "Congratulations", said the man, as my face beamed to an irrepressible smile. "We have accepted your book!"
Yes, that's right. I have written a nonfiction novel titled "CONFESSIONS OF A DYING MIND". It investigates what Will Durant says is the most important question of our times: "has modern science done away with God?"
Unlike all other books on the subject, this is written as a novel. So, no needless jargons, and in readable English prose, for any literate person to grasp with just a little bit of thought. That the publisher of the Harry Potter series agrees to its publication, gives me an especial joy indeed. For I can now fulfil another of my long-held dreams: contribute to our shared humanity by authoring an original philosophical work before turning 30.
This fulfilment is all the sweeter as the book will be the first philosophical novel on God.
After prolonged negotiations and back-and-forth edits, "CONFESSIONS" is, at long-last, ready for the public. At the stroke of midnight, this book has been made available in Amazon.in at
http://www.amazon.in/Confessions-Dying-Mind-B…/…/ref=sr_1_1… for all interested readers to get a hold of it even before its release.
So yes, here I am, delighted to announce this work to my friends, colleagues, well-wishers ... and everyone else interested in investigating the God question, now made all the easier in this novel form.
Does God's relationship to science fascinates you? Then this is what Dr. C.K Mathew, IAS, who wrote the book's Foreword while a sceptic himself, has to say:
"... a masterpiece ... pick it up and read it. It will change the way you think!"
