"A fascinating peek into the modern history of Saudi Arabia through the lens of a young Indian woman. Shifting Sands of Time paints a vivid picture of a constantly stereotyped, yet unfamiliar world to most of us." - Raju Reddy, Founding Partner - Silicon Valley Quad, Founder Ex-CEO, Sierra Atlantic "I had the opportunity to connect with Sandhya Prakash and exchange ideas during my time in Saudi Arabia. It's truly inspiring to see individuals like her who demonstrate courage and persistence in their professional lives. Writing a book is an incredible endeavor, and I'm sure Sandhya's experiences will provide valuable insights into her journey. I wish her the best of luck with her book, and I hope it resonates with readers who are interested in learning more about the unique experiences of women working publicly in Saudi Arabia." - Rashed Abdullah Al-Snan, CEO Etisalcom, Ex-CEO Batelco Jeraisy Ltd., Bahrain
