Crossword Bookstores launches Oxford scholar’s bestselling book fluid
Oxford scholar Ashish Jaiswal’s book fluid, emerged as #1 bestseller in educational philosophy on Amazon, within one week of its pre-order. Hailed as a revolutionary book by scholars from Harvard, Yale, and Oxford, one of the key premises of fluid is that failure, faltering and being uncertain in disciplinary choices is actually not a flaw but a stepping stone to achieving bigger success.
Published by Wisdom Tree, fluid builds its research around the work of geniuses from diverse fields and weaves the likes of Leonardo da Vinci, CV Raman, Steve Jobs, Charles Darwin into its narrative.
Learners across disciplines can get an insight into how groundbreaking ideas and innovations are achieved, through fluid, which could well be to learning what Sapiens by Yuval Harari is to history. Incidentally, like Harari, Ashish Jaiswal too has a DPhil (higher education) from the University of Oxford.
