Jasper Lal Chith, an accomplished aerospace engineer and graduate of IIT Bombay dedicated over three decades to ISRO, specializing in rocket propulsion. In his captivating debut book "The shattered glass and other stories from my life", he shares his rich life experiences in a simple and engaging manner. This collection reflects the unique perspective of a rocket scientist while vividly portraying life in southern India during the 1960s. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to him on this remarkable achievement. -
