Books holds only a very brief account of Pichai's lifefrom being a school student to the designation as the CEO of a Tech giant Google. Author had embedded the events which leads Pichai to steadily climb the ladder of management to top. So the lack of research was clearly felt.
I had picked up this book with an intention of knowing about Sunder Pichai, a man who has achieved unparalleled success in life at very young age. Not only this book does not serve this purpose but also it just seems compilation of random articles into a book with no clear direction whatsoever. When I finished the book, I quite could not understand what the writer was trying to achieve.
Unrelated chapters and half hearted efforts are quite visible when you seat and try reading this book. I think if there was an example of how to not write a biography then this book would serve as a great example. A primer on Sundar Pichai interlaced by professional and personal incidents that shaped him as of A very short read from the point of view of Jagmohan S Bhanver based on a fair amount of in-depth research would best describe this book.
The key highlights and anecdotes that correlate with the subsequent passages are well thought by the author. The author has presented a mini biography that might be More inclined towards glorifying Pichai in spite of its fair share of cherishable moments that offer a peek inside the life of P. Unfortunately, This book does little to discuss the other side of the coin to Pichai's life.
Though it may be unfair to expect so much in a terse review, In few instances, mentions of critiques aimed at Pichai about being an elitist have been rebuffed by the author with sufficient backing. Undeniably, his admiration for Pichai is overwhelming throughout the book which makes you rethink if there is any the flip side about Pichai.
Another case in point is the briefly pointed out timed-and-high-profile exits within Google due to Pichai's acceleration on the growth ladder. Overall, the book has interesting notes pertaining to Pichai's career, childhood, college days, ambitions, technical enthusiasm, vision, people management, relationship at work, and business challenges.
All this in a nutshell. So why not take a moment to glimpse into Sundar Pichai's life? Only disappointment for me is the more than required focus on Nadella in the latter part of this book. Probably, the fact that the author has written a prior book on Nadella has influenced his content besides the justified need to raise competitors into the scene when penning about technological giants.
Syed Hassan. Limited research has been done beyond what is already available in the public domain funny to read that Sundar started loving tech from the rotatory phone or he played cricket seriously at high school when he had no inclination towards actually playing the game himself. Lakshya Paneri. It was chaos. In the beginning, it was on the track.
It was all about Pichai. But in the latter half, it was just about more of the google and other companies and less of Pichai. Still, I get to know a lot of stuff from this book like the journey of Pichai, the compeattive market, challenges faced by google, why google lost many of their highly skilled employees and later to be the founder of some famous startups like Sandberg, Marissa Mayer, Evan Willams and many more.
So if you know some technical stuff or have little technical background you will have a good time reading this book but if you just want to read about Pichai, this book lacks behind. Mayank Garg. Very nice book. It explains in detail not only about Sundar Pichai but about Google also.
