J. R. D. TATA IS THE FIRST TO BE FELICITATED WITH THE HIGHEST AWARD, `BHARAT RATNA`; AND HE IS THE ONLY INDUSTRIALIST UPON WHOM THIS HONOUR HAS BEEN BESTOWED. HE HAS ALWAYS PREFERRED THE WELFARE OF THE COUNTRY IN COMPARISON WITH PERSONAL WELFARE. HE ALWAYS FEELS THAT WHATEVER IS BEST FOR MY NATION IS BEST FOR TATA. TODAY THE CULTURE OF TATA HAS MANY SALIENT FEATURES. TATA ALWAYS FOLLOWS PRINCIPLES, REMEMBERS THE CONSCIENCE, ALWAYS CARES FOR THE HANDS AND MINDS THAT KEEP THE BUSINESS RUNNING SUCCESSFULLY, USES THE NATIONAL WEALTH FOR THE WELFARE OF THE NATION, AND ALSO DEVELOPS THE AREA WHERE THEIR INDUSTRIES ARE SET. J. R. D. HAS ALWAYS BOOSTED NEW IDEAS, NEW MINDS. HIS IS THE LION`S SHARE IN SHAPING MANY AN INDUSTRIALISTS. HE TRUDGED ALONG NEW PATHS; HE FOUND NEW WAYS, CREATED NEW TOUCHSTONES. HE HIMSELF HAS A RICH AND VARIED HERITAGE, CULTURED BACKGROUND, AND A VERSATILE PERSONALITY. THE ARTICLES IN THIS BOOK BRING US ACROSS MANY ASPECTS OF HIS PERSONALITY. WHAT WE LIKE THE MOST ABOUT THIS LEADING INDUSTRIALIST IS THE COMPASSIONATE, CONNOISSEUR, SILVER-TONGUED AND HAPPY HUMAN IN HIM. 'भारतरत्न' हा सर्वोच्च नागरी सन्मान मिळालेले पहिले अन् एकमेव उद्योगपती जेआरडी टाटा यांनी उद्योगाचा विकास करताना 'जे देशाच्या भल्याचे ते टाटांसाठी उत्तमच असेल' हा विचार प्रधान मानला. नीतीमूल्यांची बूज राखत व्यवहार, उद्योग चालवणारे हात अन् मने जपणे, समाजातून मिळवलेली संपत्ती समाजाच्या विकासासाठी वापरणे, उद्योग उभा असलेल्या परिसराचा विकास ही टाटा उद्योगसमूहाची संस्कृती आहे. नव्याचे स्वागत करत जेआरडींनी अनेकजणांना घडवले, नव्या वाटा खोदल्या, नवे मापदंड निर्मिले. त्यांना लाभलेला उज्ज्वल वारसा, व्यक्तिमत्त्वाची जडणघडण, नवे आयाम मिळत विकसित झालेले त्यांचे समृद्ध, चतुरस्त्र व्यक्तिमत्त्व याची ओळख या पुस्तकातील लेख करून देतात. विशेषत: अनेकविध भूमिकांना पुरून वर दशांगुळे उरणारा त्यांच्यातील सहृदय, रसिक, संभाषण चतुर, आनंदी 'माणूस' वाचकाला अधिक भावतो.
