Dr Kalam calls for an Indian Renaissance, which he describes in seven steps involving the common people of the land, and in particular, the youth. He urges people to arise out of servitude to a vested ruling class, awake from the slumber of a passive democracy, and advance to manifest our destiny of a developed nation. He recommends that by turning inward and listening to the voice of our conscience, we can live a virtuous life and thereby build a strong and secure India.
Dr A P J Abdul Kalam, former President of India, and author of `Wings of Fire’ Prof Arun Tiwari, coauthor of this book, also coauthored `Wings of Fire’
