Book Summary
At the start of his career as sub-collector of Parvathipuram subdivision in north-coastal Andhra Pradesh way back in 1974, Subbarao learntthe hard waythat tribal development requires more than enthusiasm;it requires, most of all, an understanding of poverty.Nearly forty years later, in 2013, as the governor of the Reserve Bank of India in the midst of a fierce exchange rate crisis, Subbarao learntonce again the hard waythe harsh challenges of emerging economies in an unequal world.Bookended by these assignments is the remarkable journey of a small-town boy from a modest background to the top echelons of Indias civil service and then on to the helm of the countrys central bank. Subbarao recounts that journeyhis hopes and despair, his successes and setbacks, his mistakes andmisdeeds, and the lessons he learnt along the waywith rare candour and honesty. The subtext of that story though is his constant soul-searching about whether he has given back to society more than he received.Just a Mercenary? is a warm, engaging and earnest account of an extraordinary career that is bound to inform and inspire young professionals trying to find their way up the career ladder and discover meaning in their journeys.
