Profiles In Achievement: Greatness is an enigma. It is an asset. And it is a liability. Everyone of us is curious about it because it gives us a barometer with which we can measure ourselves and our lives. It commands our respect and awe. And we can dream of endeavouring to rise as high! Personalities which figure in this book have done something better than most of us can do. And we should know why they have done that something better so that we can gauge our achievements and do something about it.
