Undernutrition in India
This book deals with issues related to undernutrition and anaemia in India. It establishes its interconnectedness with poverty, tribal living conditions, contraception usage, dietary diversity, and socioeconomic inequality. It addresses SDG 2, namely “end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture.” It puts forth the linkages between mother's economic empowerment and children's nutritional status, anaemia of women with particular reference to tribal women, and the issues associated with anaemia in India. It also delves into the relationship between contraceptive usage and anaemia level. It explores the proximate and intermediate determinants of undernutrition disaggregated at the state level in India. It elaborates the importance of ensuring food security and suggests policy measures to improve maternal and child health. The book is an asset for all researchers, academicians, clinicians and policy makers dealing with sociology, economics, public policy, social work, population study, gender issues, biostatistics, health, development, and nutrition.
DYING WITH A LITTLE PATIENCE: POEMS
“Abhijit Sarmah's Dying with a Little Patience transports us into a world of fine wit, opulence, and stark imageries. It opens up alternate worlds, democratic and egalitarian—spaces that question the existent social condition, create an alternate reality, and dare to undo the state of apathy and brutality that pervades our current scenario.” —Namrata Pathak, author of That’s How Mirai Eats a Pomegranate
Atlas of Gender and Health Inequalities in India
How will the world's largest population approach its inequality challenges? This volume addresses this question by unraveling different strands of India's emerging health and gender geographies. It is the first book to offer a comparative study of these disparities in India, stressing the deep interaction between health challenges and patriarchal features. Most themes explored in this book illustrate the entangled nature of the social and regional determinants of gender and health imbalances in India. Through its rich cartography of contemporary India, the book represents the first Atlas exploiting district-level figures drawn from the latest sociodemographic survey conducted in 2019-21. Aft...
Population Dynamics in Eastern India and Bangladesh
This book highlights historical and current perspectives on population issues in the Bengali-speaking states of India (i.e., West Bengal, Tripura, Assam) and Bangladesh and explores three core population dynamics: fertility, mortality–morbidity and development. Furthermore, it presents a selection of revealing cases from area-specific micro-studies, mainly conducted in West Bengal and Bangladesh. The book covers various demographic and health issues in these two regions, which are similar in terms of several sociocultural aspects, yet dissimilar in terms of their policies and programs. Adopting an integrated approach that combines various disciplines and perspectives, it explores highly topical issues such as social inequality, religious difference and mental health. The book is intended for a broad readership interested in population studies, sociology and development, including academics, researchers, planners and policymakers.
Production of Biofuels and Chemicals from Sustainable Recycling of Organic Solid Waste
This book covers sustainable recycling processes (e.g. physical, biological, chemical, and thermo-chemical) of multiple organic solid wastes, provides methods for material recycle of wastes into value-added products including fuels and commodity chemicals that are able to be directly applied to promote manufacturing processes. Aimed at improving the awareness of effective conversion protocols and for developing innovative biomass conversion processes, this text was conceived as a collection of studies on state-of-art techniques and know-how for production of biofuels and chemicals from sustainable recycling of organic solid wastes. Topics in the text are discussed in terms of addressing recent advances, assessing and highlighting promising new methods or new technological strategies and direct conversion of organic solid wastes to process feeds. Highly-recognized authorities, experts and professionals have contributed individual chapters in selected areas to cover the overall topic in a comprehensive manner.
A Comprehensive Textbook of ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT

Multidisciplinary Approach to Information Technology in Library and Information Science
In the ever-evolving landscape of information technology within library and information science, scholars often find themselves navigating a complex web of diverse research areas. The broad spectrum of topics, ranging from digital libraries to artificial intelligence, poses a significant challenge for academic scholars seeking a comprehensive understanding of the field's intricacies. The absence of a consolidated resource tailored to the specific needs of graduate students, professors, and practitioners further exacerbates this issue. Multidisciplinary Approach to Information Technology in Library and Information Science addresses the pressing challenges faced by scholars in the realm of library and information science. This reference handbook serves as a beacon, illuminating the multifaceted interactions and impacts of technologies on information resources. This book delves into the ethical, legal, and social implications of information technology across diverse contexts – libraries, information centers, archives, museums, education, business, government, and healthcare.
