Chase your dreams - An autobiography by Sachin Tendulkar
मेरे पिता ने मुझे 11 साल की उम्र में ही आजाद पंछी की तरह छोड़ दिया और मुझसे बोले, ''अपने सपनों का पीछा करो, लेकिन यह शर्त है कि तुम उनको पाने के लिए शॉर्टकट नहीं ढूँढ़ोगे।'' अपने 24 साल के लंबे कॅरियर के दौरान शायद ही ऐसा कोई क्रिकेट रिकॉर्ड होगा, जो सचिन तेंदुलकर से अछूता रहा हो। टेस्ट और एक दिवसीय मैचों में सबसे ज्यादा रन बनाने के अलावा वे पहले और एकमात्र ऐसे बल्लेबाज बने, जिसने 100 अंतरराष्ट्रीय शतक लगाए और 200 टेस्ट मैचों में अपनी मौजूदगी दर्ज कराई। उनकी स्ट्रोक खेलने की विशिष्ट शैली ने उनको ऐतिहासिक हस्ती बना दिया, क्योंकि यह उनकी ही विलक्षण क्षमता थी कि वह दुनिया के किसी भी हिस्से में और मैदान के किसी भी कोने पर गेंद मार सकते थे। बंबई में एक मध्यवर्गीय परिवार में जनमे सचिन ने, जो कि एक शरारती बच्चे थे, बड़े हुए तो दिखाया-एक खिलाड़ी और कप्तान के रूप में कैसे लक्ष्यों को हासिल किया जाता है और कैसे सपनों को सच किया जाता है! हैरत की बात नहीं, खेल के प्रति उनका जुनून, देश के लिए उनके मन में सम्मान और मैदान एवं उससे बाहर उनका शानदार व्यवहार ही वे बातें रहीं, जिन्होंने उनको करोड़ों लोगों का चहेता और आनेवाली पीढ़ी के लिए रोल मॉडल बनाया था। सचिन तेंदुलकर के शिखर को छूने की रोचक और प्रेरणाप्रद यात्रा, उन्हीं की जुबानी। यह पुस्तक न केवल पठनीय है, वरन् असंख्य युवाओं और खेल-प्रेमियों के लिए प्रेरणा का खजाना है।

The Social History of England
In 1989, the Berlin Wall fell; shortly afterwards the two Germanies reunited, and East Germany ceased to exist. In Stasiland, winner of the 2004 Samuel Johnson Prize, Anna Funder tells extraordinary tales from the underbelly of the former East Germany, a country where the headquarters of the secret police can become a museum literally overnight, and one in fifty East Germans were informing on their countrymen and women. She meets Miriam, who as a sixteen-year-old might have started the Third World War, visits the man who painted the line which became the Berlin Wall and gets drunk with the legendary 'Mik Jegger' of the East, who the authorities once declared - to his face - to 'no longer exist'.
