The book is an initiative of the INAE and a reflection of the experiences of some of the Fellows of the INAE in the fields of science, technology and engineering. The book is about the reminiscences, eureka moments, inspirations, challenges and opportunities in the journey the professionals took toward self-realisation and the goals they achieved. The book contains 58 articles on diverse topics that truly reflects the way the meaningful mind of an engineer works. 000752650 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed December 10, 2015). 000752650 650_0 $$aEngineers. 000752650 650_0 $$aEngineering. 000752650 7001_ $$aGhosh, P.,$$d1947-$$eeditor. 000752650 7001_ $$aRaj, Baldev,$$d1947-2018$$eeditor. 000752650 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGhosh, Purnendu.$$tMind of an Engineer.$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore, ©2015$$z9789811001185 000752650 852__ $$bebk 000752650 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-0119-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000752650 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:752650$$pGLOBAL_SET 000752650 980__ $$aEBOOK 000752650 980__ $$aBIB 000752650 982__ $$aEbook 000752650 983__ $$aOnline 000752650 994__ $$a92$$bISE
