Civilization is the outcome of varied experiences and observations of people on the canvas of time, the vital among which have been recorded since time immemorial. With the advent of the book, such observations have become better preserved, tangible and accessible, to the benefit of generations to come. Upholding this tradition, some proactive members of the publishing industry traced and identified a karmayogi in their domain, Mr Subhash Sethi, who has devoted fifty precious years of his life, serving selflessly and with dedication, to the welfare of the publishing industry. Taking into account his hardships and his valuable experiences – professional as well as personal – the people close to him thought it prudent to record them all, and persuaded him to walk down his memory lane and commit his story to paper, for the benefit of all those who are aspiring to make publishing and bookselling their career.
