Abstract

It was in the early„ 80s and I could still vividly recall when I eagerly picked up and bought a book entitled “Murphy�??s
Law”. Holding the pocket book securely in my hand, I then asked myself, “What is in this book that made it an
international best seller?
Actually, I heard about this book from my friends who were praising to high heavens the truth that was being spread
around by the author. I didn�??t know who Murphy was and what I read from the book was that Murphy was a keen
observer of life and he came out with a set of practical rules that governed his life. His famous dictum was: “If Anything
Can Go Wrong, It Will.”
