New Delhi, July 29: Weighing values against material gains, ethics against legality, firmness against stubborness, the master motivator Shiv Khera exhorts all and sundry to place "honour above honours" in his new book poised to hit the stands on August 6. "The book, titled ‘Honour above honours’, is about humanity. It prods all of us to reconsider those ancestral values which are being rejected as outdated and junk now. We can't afford to ditch our parents" says Khera author of international best seller "You can win" in his inimitable style.


Displaying his trademark vivacity and never- say- die spirit, the much sought after educator, speaker and motivator lamented the downswing in India's national character but added that "most Indians are not partners in crime but victims of crime " and stressed the need to understand this fine difference to rejuvenate India's sagging morale and help realise its potential.

"I started working on this book while i was writing you can win and the inspiration came from many sources though I was much influenced by Lee Kwan Yue, ex-prime minister of Singapore," he told newspersons.
The rigmarole of routine existence has taken a toll of people's sense of morality and they have become more money-conscious. They have strange ideas of what success is and are compromising their integrity and values to achieve the same. It is in this context the book is written and asks people to place "Honour above honours", he asserts.
"75000 copies are into print and 55000 orders have already been placed. This shows that people are interested in values and honesty." Quipped Khera. Mc Millan is publishing the book.
