I recommend the book for everyone who is interested in electronics, business and the development of technology." - Arja Björklund, Head of Finance, Nokia India Sales Private Limited

"It was a pleasure to discuss this new book with Dr. Sethi at Mustila in Finland, where Eric Tigerstedt's first electronic laboratories were set up more than 100 years ago. ... It is interesting to read about his contributions in this historical context, making me ever more convinced that he was far ahead of his time." - Peter M.A. Tigerstedt, Professor Emeritus, University of Helsinki, Finland
"In the age when most things modern are taken for granted, The Business of Electronics provides great perspective.It takes the reader through an exciting journey from the very beginnings of many profound inventions to our modern era and faiths of many well-known corporations that have contributed to our life as we live it today. A fascinating and enlightening read!" - Antti Ohrling, Chairman, Ohrling Ltd.; Speaker, The Outstanding Speakers' Bureau
