The title of the book says it all. It is in your face, casual and conversational. The objective of the book is to make the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) “easily accessible to the lay reader” (inside jacket). There is a style that makes complex things accessible, a narrative style that is bereft of jargon. If one were to look at a breezy, interesting account of how the central banking evolved in this country, this is not the book, however.
