Overview

In the final decades of the twentieth century, as India stood at the cusp of a technological awakening, a quiet revolution was taking shape in the labs and lecture halls of IIT Kharagpur. Memory of Memories is the vivid and deeply personal account of Prof. M. A. Faruqi, a pioneering faculty member who helped guide the Institute's transformation from traditional Mechanical Engineering education to the frontiers of digital innovation. It offers a rare insider's view of the birth of Computer-Integrated Manufacturing in India, the establishment of the country's first CAD/CAM Centre, and the development of Intelligent Machines. The book tells the story of students who took risks, of faculty who explored new knowledge, and of an Institute that nurtured curiosity despite modest means. From robots and Chaotic Systems to Neural Networks, Prof. Faruqi recounts not just what was built, but how it was imagined. Rich in human insight, Memory of Memories is both a personal journey and a testament to the spirit of invention, perseverance, and the quiet courage of academic minds working in uncharted territory.
