Kayinath
BLURB ‘Kayinath’, meaning ‘Universe’ a collection of excellent Urdu poetry written by Professor Ghulam Hussain Daleel, is based on Sufism, which believes in the philosophy of ‘Unity of Creations’ and this expounds that there cannot be any difference between one group of mankind and another. The criterion that should govern the relationship among human beings is ‘love’ and there should be no place for any hatred or discrimination. This book authored by his daughter, Ms. Razia Begum Abdul Azeez, is a translation and exhaustive commentary on ‘Kayinath’. It was written to decipher the intellectually rich and spiritually pristine piece of her father’s magnum opus, into comprehendible message for the benefit of humanity. This book has deep rooted Sufi Philosophy and Islamic Spiritualism which the erudite author Ms. Razia Begum has prudently thrown light on, citing relevant reference from the Holy Quran and sayings of Prophet Mohammed ( peace be upon him).

The Scandal of Empire
Many have told of the East India Company’s extraordinary excesses in eighteenth-century India, of the plunder that made its directors fabulously wealthy and able to buy British land and titles, but this is only a fraction of the story. When one of these men—Warren Hastings—was put on trial by Edmund Burke, it brought the Company’s exploits to the attention of the public. Through the trial and after, the British government transformed public understanding of the Company’s corrupt actions by creating an image of a vulnerable India that needed British assistance. Intrusive behavior was recast as a civilizing mission. In this fascinating, and devastating, account of the scandal that la...

War, Exile and the Music of Afghanistan
In the 1970s John Baily conducted extensive ethnomusicological research in Afghanistan, principally in the city of Herat but also in Kabul. Then, with Taraki’s coup in 1978, came conflict, war, and the dispersal of many musicians to locations far and wide. This new publication is the culmination of Baily’s further research on Afghan music over the 35 years that followed. This took him to Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, the USA, Australia and parts of Europe - London, Hamburg and Dublin. Arranged chronologically, the narrative traces the sequence of political events - from 1978, through the Soviet invasion, to the coming of the Taliban and, finally, the aftermath of the US-led invasion in 20...

The Return of the Gift
This book is a history of European interpretations of the gift from the mid-seventeenth to the early twentieth century. Reciprocal gift exchange, pervasive in traditional European society, disappeared from the discourse of nineteenth-century social theory only to return as a major theme in twentieth-century anthropology, sociology, history, philosophy and literary studies. Modern anthropologists encountered gift exchange in Oceania and the Pacific Northwest and returned the idea to European social thought; Marcel Mauss synthesized their insights with his own readings from remote times and places in his famous 1925 essay on the gift, the starting-point for subsequent discussion. The Return of the Gift demonstrates how European intellectual history can gain fresh significance from global contexts.
Being Bengali
Bengal has long been one of the key centres of civilisation and culture in the Indian subcontinent. However, Bengali identity – "Bengaliness" – is complicated by its long history of evolution, the fact that Bengal is now divided between India and Bangladesh, and by virtue of a very large international diaspora from both parts of Bengal. This book explores a wide range of issues connected with Bengali identity. Amongst other subjects, it considers the special problems arising as a result of the division of Bengal, and concludes by demonstrating that there are many factors which make for the idea of a Bengali identity.
