Inclusive of all taxes

General’s Jottings is your guide to national security and the ‘strategic’ domain. No longer a domain reserved for soldiers, national security now entails a ‘whole of nation’ approach—it includes you and affects you. Everyone has to be a ‘Nagrik Yodha’ (Citizen Warrior) in the mode of a vigilant or ‘Jagruk Hindustani’.

These jottings were first written as newspaper columns and articles. This book weaves them thematically, highlights important issues, updates latest developments, and flags key takeaway points.

The book’s approach is geocentric, which is used as the prefix, making it geopolitical and geoeconomic within the ambit of geostrategic. It will be an invaluable companion for the professional and amateur alike.
