In the Shadow of the Hills
Reproduction of the original: In the Shadow of the Hills by George C. Shedd
The Making of the International Solar Alliance
In 2015, leading up to the Paris Climate Conference, India faced intense scrutiny over its role in either securing or scuttling a global climate deal. On the first day of the climate talks India and France jointly announced the International Solar Alliance (ISA), and two weeks of hectic negotiations culminated in the adoption of the Paris Agreement. In less than two years, even as multilateral climate negotiations were weakening with the United States announcing its withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, the ISA - led by India and backed primarily by developing countries-became a legal entity. Vyoma Jha presents a case study of the creation of the ISA as a treaty-based international organizati...

Gaps and the Creation of Ideas
Gaps and the Creation of Ideas: An Artist’s Book is a portrait of the space between things, whether they be neurons, quotations, comic-book frames, or fragments in a collage. This twenty-year project is an artist’s book that juxtaposes quotations and images from hundreds of artists and writers with the author’s own thoughts. Using Adobe InDesign® for composition and layout, the author has structured the book to show analogies among disparate texts and images. There have always been gaps, but a focus on the space between things is virtually synonymous with modernity. Often characterized as a break, modernity is a story of gaps. Around 1900, many independent strands of gap thought and experience interacted and interwove more intricately. Atoms, textiles, theories, women, Jews, collage, poetry, patchwork, and music figure prominently in these strands. The gap is a ubiquitous phenomenon that crosses the boundaries of neuroscience, rabbinic thinking, modern literary criticism, art, popular culture, and the structure of matter. This book explores many subjects, but it is ultimately a work of art.
Towards a Four-Tiered Model of Mediation
Underpinned by a hybrid methodology (ranging from social sciences to human sciences), this book parses mediation in four perspectives, which stands as an unparalleled methodological approach so far. Mediation has long been tethered to piecemeal and haphazard approaches, which have flatly failed to capture the gist of the uniqueness of this (often) poorly latched on (and poorly understood) dispute resolution mechanism. This book argues that, in order to fully grasp the richness of such dispute resolution mechanism, mediation must be parsed in four tiers. The first tier is the social dynamics of mediation. The second tier is the cultural dynamics of mediation. The third tier is the legal dynam...
