Summary, etc Memoirs of a Maverick: The First Fity Years (19411991) Of Indias civil servants, Mani Shankar Aiyar may have arguably had one of the most colourful careers. Known for his lacerating wit and many indiscretions, with a career that has seen great highs and lows, he has been a true maverick. In this extraordinarily honest memoir, he tells the story of his first fifty years from his childhood at Dehradun where he was raised by his feisty widowed mother to nearly becoming the president of the Cambridge Union, to working as a young diplomat who strengthened IndoPak ties by brilliantly managing Indias first consulate
