Pursuit of Happiness

Nausherwan Hasan, a professional engineer who grew up in Pakistan before immigrating to the United States of America, recalls his journey from the East to the West.
From an early age, he learned how to deal with challenges when his family was forced to migrate to Pakistan following the partition of India in 1947-a history he revisits in this autobiography. His father had to adjust to a new reality but met it head on with hard work and faith.
Hasan shares how he made his way to America and joined Ebasco, which was formed by General Electric in 1905. There, he had the opportunity to work on a range of nuclear power plants, hydro facilities and infrastructure projects. The author, who was nicknamed Nash, worked there his entire career- lasting over 44 years..
Hasan also reflects on surviving two bombings on the World Trade Center, his love affair with New York City, while sharing stories of his work and hid family and the many lessons he learned about pursuing happiness
