24 കോഡ്സ്
Two groups try to unravel one secret. One relies on modern technology. The other relies on knowledge long hidden in tradition.
The journey looks outward, but it turns into a deep search inside the human mind.
In the end, the book closes by leaving one clue for the reader to solve... Try it and see whether you can solve it. It is a challenge — the author's challenge to the reader.
In truth, the book does not end even there. It also offers 24 timeless life lessons for further reading. Perhaps, for some, that will be the treasure they find in this book.
At the heart of the book is knowledge that corrects our assumptions about wealth and technology. Every page is sure to give you something new to learn — or something worth being reminded of.
- If what you seek through reading is knowledge, this book is for you...
- If you want to understand the latest technologies in the simplest way, this book is for you...
- If you want to know how traditional sayings and modern psychology are connected, this book is for you...
- If you love novels and want to travel with the story and beyond it, this book is for you...
