Reviews
Dr. Sethi takes us on a fascinating and intriguing journey through centuries of innovations that have fundamentally changed our lives - and still do. Very enjoyable reading! - Tehri Hakala, Director General, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Finland Connecting the dots in a fascinating manner, Sethi illustrates us how the foundation of our modern day-communication was laid down long ago. I recommend the book for everyone who is interested in electronics, business and the development of technology. - Arja Bjorklund, Head of Finance, Nokia India Sales Private Limited The author brings magnificently into the daylight some of the most remarkable but forgotten inventors whose inventions have helped others to succeed. This new book should definitely be called as a handbook of popular electronics history! It also suits well as a first reading to those studying electronics. - Matti Kerppola, CEO and Founder, Leonis Consulting, Finland It was a pleasure to discuss this new book with Dr. Sethi at Mustila in Finland, where Eric Tigerstedt's first electronic laboratories were set up more than 100 years ago. ... It is interesting to read about his contributions in this historical context, making me ever more convinced that he was far ahead of his time. - Peter M.A. Tigerstedt, Professor Emeritus, University of Helsinki, Finland In the age when most things modern are taken for granted, The Business of Electronics provides great perspective. It takes the reader through an exciting journey from the very beginnings of many profound inventions to our modern era and faiths of many well-known corporations that have contributed to our life as we live it today. A fascinating and enlightening read! - Antti Ohrling, Chairman, Ohrling Ltd.; Speaker, The Outstanding Speakers' Bureau
