Beginning with events that fired her passion on the bleak, mafia-controlled streets of post-communist Russia, Mission to Teach: The Life and Legacy of a Revolutionary Educator recounts the incredible journey of Dr. Jhumki Basu.
Mission to Teach chronicles the brutal murder of her dearest mentor and onset of breast cancer at age 24, to her founding of a public school in an embattled New York borough where she forged an inclusive teaching model that dramatically improved completion rates, to a unique professorship at New York University and untimely death and continuing legacy.
Narrated by Jhumki’s father, Dipak Basu, a writer and humanitarian, Mission to Teach is аbout:
• An enquiry into the public education system, especially as pertains to science
• A manifesto in favor of highly rational yet impassioned living
• The all-encompassing strength of family and friends and the investment in bonds that endure
• A breathless sense of the pace of one’s life; how it should be, how much one can do when fully alive, and how much one can leave behind

It is a great achievement for any man to perform extraordinary acts, but it is even more when this is done despite terrible circumstances. The only thing that makes this book stand-alone and must-read for you is that I have my own self-applied methods to come out of the grave of misfortune. You won’t believe how poor I was unless you come to know about my native place in Bihar in India which is giving the testimony by telling the terrible truths of my life. So I don’t call it a book but a commandment to human society of the entire world to lead them to their destination. It is not that after you achieve your goal, only then your life becomes beautiful, but what I say is that, you just start your journey to your goal and you will feel your life getting beautiful. Trust me; it is true, because I can’t distrust what I have practically learnt. Some of the greatest people of the world, who are often regarded as the smartest minds of our century, they often had to face great obstacles, the ridicule of their peers and the animosity of society, but ultimately they succeeded. They got success, they got victory. If you get to know about their lives, you will find that they also had to learn, practice and apply the skills that made them successful. The same skills that they learnt and applied, I am mentioning in this book believing the fact that your life will also be brightened with fabulous colours.
