About Book
Wings of Fire traces the life and times of India’s former president APJ Abdul Kalam. It gives a glimpse of his childhood as well as his growth as India’s missile man. Wings of Fire: An Autobiography is co-written by APJ Abdul Kalam and Arun Tiwari. The book traces his life from the obscure, poverty-stricken little village in Rameswaram to the imposing Rashtrapati Bhavan in the grand avenues of Lutyens Delhi. In Wings of Fire: An Autobiography, ABJ Abdul Kalam’s life – both personal and professional – is unraveled through four sections titled Orientation, Creation, Propitiation and Contemplation. In Orientation, we get an understanding of his early life. From the sea shores of Rameswaram to a training program in NASA, the journey is a truly remarkable one and the book traces it in detail. In `Creation,’ Abdul Kalam reminiscences on the beginning of his professional life. There are a lot of details about his work in NASA and other facilities in the US. The section focuses on the happenings in his life until 1980. `Propitiation’ traces his evolution into the `Missile Man of India’ and focuses on the period between 1981 and 1991. `Contemplation’ gives us an insight into the thinking and philosophy of this legendary technocrat and an amazing human being.
