Hi everyone,
I’m Ramkumar S. P., and I’m currently in a career transition phase after spending over 10 years in the supply chain and logistics industry.This shift gave me some space to reflect on long-standing questions I’ve had about politics, power, and society — thoughts that have been simmering for years but never had the time to fully express.
I’m new to Goodreads and still figuring my way around, but I joined to connect with readers who enjoy deep, meaningful books — the kind that don’t just inform, but challenge.
During this break, I took the opportunity to write my first book: The Endless Pendulum. It’s a nonfiction reflection on why democracies swing between extremes, and how ideology, fear, and power keep repeating in different forms.

I’m here more to learn than to promote, but I’d be happy to share more about the book in the appropriate thread if anyone’s interested. Looking forward to discovering new reads and thoughtful discussions!
