Considered a Renaissance man by his friends, his interests span far and wide, from photography, painting, philosophy, economics and singing, to studying wildflowers and trees. He has published in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, and quite extensively in professional journals and books. In the field of medicine, he takes credit for suggesting to Robert Gallo, the discoverer of HIV that, based on his electron microscopic observations, AIDS may be caused by a retrovirus. Reading and writing have long been major interests of his, the latter finally bearing fruit in this, his first work of fiction. The book, a love story, presents India as it really is, and how it could be sans the mystical mumbo-jumbo which enshrouds every aspect of its culture. Gurdip believes strongly that reason is our greatest asset, and he gives short shrift to mysticism and the swamis and devis who have exploited the gullibility of many an American in the recent past.lihat lebih sedikit
