Indian Daughters of Science
The Book ‘Scientific Daughters of India’ is a beautifully sketched life journey of 21 women scientists of India and their contribution to the field of Science. These scientists belong to fields of cell biology, neuroscience, mathematics, statistics, botany, space sciences, geology, genetic engineering and many more. Mrs. Neeta Mohite, the author of the book, teaches Physics at Dr. D.Y.Patil ACS College, Pune. She has always inspired her students by the life stories of various scientists and has now compiled a book serving this very purpose. The book was originally written in Marathi and has been translated to English by Dr. Harkirat Kaur who believes that such books should get wide readership, across India and the world to let everyone know of such phenomenal women scientists, who create ripples in their respective fields but sadly remain unknown to the population in general. The book is also beneficial to students appearing for competitive examinations. It strives to achieve the goal of motivating innumerable girls and boys to delve into the unfathomable mysteries of the universe and solve them.
Stories of our Sheroes
We are all aware of the first woman Prime Minister and the women Presidents of India. We also know the first woman who conquered Mount Everest and the women who have won medals at the Olympics Games. But, have you ever wondered who the pioneering women in Science, Engineering, Medicine, Arts, Literature, Sports and other fields are? For example, who was the first woman to get a Doctorate? Who were the first women IFS, IAS and IPS officers and Judges? Well, here is a collection of India's Sheroes who have achieved significant milestones across various fields – the women who led the battles protecting our motherland fiercely, who opened the gates of educational institutions and jobs to women, who demanded fundamental and equal rights and much more, enduring very lonesome and difficult journeys. They are The Foremost and Formidable Women of India. Welcome to the Stories of our Sheroes.

Lab Hopping
Embark on a one-of-a-kind journey through India's science laboratories in pursuit of the true story behind the gender gap. From Bhopal to Bhubaneswar, from Bangalore to Jammu, Aashima Dogra and Nandita Jayaraj engage in thought-provoking conversations with renowned scientists like Gagandeep Kang, Rohini Godbole, Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw and Prajval Shastri, as well as researchers at earlier stages of their scientific careers. These dialogues about the triumphs and challenges faced by women offer fresh perspectives on the gender gap that continues to haunt Indian science today. Our labs are brimming with inspiring stories of women scientists persisting in science despite facing apathy, stereotypes, and sexism to systemic and organizational challenges. Stories that reveal both a broken system and the attempts by extraordinary women working to fix it. By questioning whether India is doing enough to support its women in science and if western models of science and feminism can truly be applied in India, the authors not only offer a comprehensive examination of the state of women in science but also offer a roadmap for the way forward.

The volume brings...
Nucleus and Nation
In 1974 India joined the elite roster of nuclear world powers when it exploded its first nuclear bomb. But the technological progress that facilitated that feat was set in motion many decades before, as India sought both independence from the British and respect from the larger world. Over the course of the twentieth century, India metamorphosed from a marginal place to a serious hub of technological and scientific innovation. It is this tale of transformation that Robert S. Anderson recounts in Nucleus and Nation. Tracing the long institutional and individual preparations for India’s first nuclear test and its consequences, Anderson begins with the careers of India’s renowned scientists...
