Just when you think that you own the world, there comes a strong blow from somewhere up there, says management guru Prof Arindam Chaudhuri   . THERE is no God.

But at the last moment, I had to change my plan when I had a chance to glimpse through the latest copy of UNDP’s Human Development Report 2006. Well, for thos...
