MPI,
Will someone clarify why they brought out so soon a second edition of one of the world's greatest books?
Will Amartya have a say on this please?
I got an invite and may go.. Will skip the speeches though
I believe TMK will sing after the speeches.

Perhaps the first sold out.
Or perhaps, it is the New, Improved Version!
The First edition sits, on my shelf, still awaiting reading.
