    About the Book

    The book charts a journey around the globe. While the first part covers the exciting destinations of India, the second part tries to cover a wider canvas. The coup de maitre reads like a backpacker’s fantasy. From almost climbing the Mount Everest to encountering the indigenous people of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, from paying obeisance at various popular and lesser known temples and shrines in Himachal Pradesh and Garhwal to wandering in the deserts of Ladakh, the author endeavours to give a taste of everything Indian.

    His unquenchable thirst for adventure takes him further. Metaphorically thawing the ice sheet between the contemporary people and the Inuits in Greenland, the author gives you a world view of his experiences facing inhospitable weather in the icy Patagonia, getting lost in the romanticism of the Wadi Rum and Petra, and watching in awe the mighty Iguassu Falls.

    About The Book

    America is in the grip of a crisis seldom seen in its history. At the domestic level, there is rising unemployment, a recession that seems to have no end, increased drug abuse, failing schools and the breakdown of the family. America’s international image is dented by wars, the incidence of terrorism and the failure of the Obama Administration to bring about comprehensive immigration reforms. Dr Dhanpaul Narine writes brilliantly about some of these issues and asks that we think of the ways and means to resolve them.

    About the Book

    ‘Amitabh Bachchan As The Other’ by Shoma A Chatterji is not a biographical study of the actor. Beyond the persistent ‘angry young man’ label, Chatterji contends that Bachchan’s cinematic prowess defies stereotypes, aligning him more closely with the intriguing concept of ‘The Other.’ This ‘Other’ challenges norms, demands our attention, holds us responsible for our actions, and prompts a reconsideration of our understanding of the world. To substantiate this thesis, Chatterji meticulously examines fifteen of Bachchan’s classic performances spanning two decades, from Anand to Agneepath. The other films in this study include Parwana, Zanjeer, Saudagar, Namak Haram, Abhimaan, Deewaar, Sholay, Amar Akbar Anthony, Don, Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Shakti, Coolie, and Main Azaad Hoon. In the chapter titled ‘Othering the Other,’ we witness a mellow Bachchan embracing roles he never thought possible in his youth.

    About the Book

    Jayalalithaa was a superstar in every respect. Jayalalithaa—a journey is a book on her life and times. This book attempts to bring to the reader a whiff of the personality, an understanding of the person she was and the adulation that she garnered. Jayalalithaa was a convent educated polyglot, a beautiful young woman at the height of a successful career as an actor, capable of taking her own political decision. And that decision stood by her and her people through all the ups and downs that life threw at her.

    A New York Times story called Jayalalithaa, ‘… a natural leader, glamorous and intelligent’. There was, undeniably, more to the woman than meets the eye. Her people were with her. She was their mother figure, not just an astute politician who won two elections in 2015 and 2016 with huge margins. And that is why this book.

  • ANATOMY OF BLACK MONEY

    About the Book

    Issue of black money has gained more attention due to political reasons and economic consequences of this menace has taken a backseat in this discourse. Indian government constituted various committees to understand the nature and magnitude of black economy and suggest remedial measures. However, black money proportion of GDP has increased consistently which proves that there is too much theory and too little practice when it comes to tackling this issue. Issues of black money, tax evasion, money-laundering, benami property, terror financing etc. are highly interrelated because the prime motive of the perpetrators of crime is to get unlawful financial gains. Globalised world has provided multiple ways to the perpetrators of the financial crimes to hide their identity. Lack of cooperation between the countries is one of the primary reasons which prevents the meaningful resolution of cases. Role of political machinery is also quite important because political establishment drives the legislative and policy decisions. In November 2016, India demonetised high value currency notes with an aim to reduce the cash circulating in the economy with an understanding that a significant part of black money is in the form of cash. This book aims to cover the issue of black money, its causes & consequences and the way out. This book has been written in a language devoid of technicalities and jargons which can be helpful for a general reader who is interested in this topic.

    About the Book

    Archival Science: Education and Training in India is a powerful call to action for policymakers, educators, and institutions to invest in preserving India’s documentary heritage. Archives are more than dusty files—they are the bedrock of governance, legal rights, cultural memory, and transparency. Yet, India suffers from a critical lack of archival science education, with the National Archives of India being the only formal training institution. As government agencies, universities, banks, and corporations demand better record-keeping and digital management, the need for trained archivists has never been more urgent. This book highlights how archival science—an interdisciplinary blend of history, law, IT, library science, and management—can become a dynamic academic and professional f ield. It advocates for integrated programmes nationwide that prepare professionals to protect our past while building the infrastructure for a digital future. Preserving the nation’s memory is not optional—it’s a responsibility. This is a timely manifesto for a field whose moment has arrived.

    ASSASSINATION OF RAJIV GANDHI AN INSIDE JOB?

    About The Book

    For twenty-three years a myth has been perpetuated that former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated by the LTTE because it feared his triumphant return to power at the conclusion of the 1991 general elections, underway, when Rajiv, out of power was assassinated on 21 May 1991. But if this basic premise is knocked off and the alternate scenario is shown that the Congress which returned to power in 1991 even after Rajiv’s assassination considerably short of a simple majority, had no chance of returning to power, had Rajiv not been sacrificed thus, then the entire bottom of this myth is knocked off and the whole theory falls flat on its nose. This is the premise on which everyone starting from CBI-SIT to the Supreme Court and numerous analysts and theorists have built their castles of conspiracy. This book is also about conspiracies and intrigue, but it has attempted to explode this myth and seeks to find why Rajiv was killed if he was not likely to return to power in the 1991 mid-term elections?
