This contributed volume is about water resources, their variability with prevalent environmental conditions and its sustainable management in India. Water has always been the life line for survival. An adequate supply of safe drinking water is one of the major pre-requisites for a healthy life. Time and again water has been a means of consolidating power in the human society. In the beginning of the new millennium, water has become a major issue in India. India is known to have the gift of its unique river systems have abundant water resources but ironically India faces severe water crises and other water management issues on a vast scale. The water related issues in India varies with both time and space. From crises of potable water, lack of sanitation, water borne diseases, to pesticide and heavy metal contamination, water related predicaments are highly prevalent in India and are more grave in rural set up.
Environmental Sanitation and Community Water Supply
In the Indian context.
New Concepts in Cerebral Ischemia
Approximately half a million Americans suffer brain ischemic episodes every year. These brain strokes are the third leading cause of death in the United States and the number-one cause of permanent disability. Over the past decade, we have made extensive attempts to understand the biological mechanisms that underlie stroke-induced neuronal injury.
CNS Neuroprotection
"CNS neuroprotection" was a common subject of papers, symposia, and reviews during the previous "decade of the brain. " Indeed, in recent years, experimental study of putative neuroprotective agents prompted clinical trials of numerous drug candidates in acute and chronic human neurodegenerative conditions. While the outcomes of these trials have not been as successful as initially hoped, these were early explorations, and the pipeline of relevant ideas continues to grow in strength and depth. We predict that early in this new millennium, crippling disorders such as stroke and Alzheimer's disease will be treated effectively by therapeutic neuroprotective strategies. This volume of the Handbo...

Ground Water Development - Issues and Sustainable Solutions
Ground water resources are receiving global attention, as human population growth and development cause significant changes to the earth system. It plays a major role in ensuring livelihood security in many parts of South Asia and its contribution to poverty alleviation is substantial. The complex nature of ground water problems in the Indian Sub-continent requires a precise delineation of the ground water regimes in different hydro geological settings and socio-economic conditions and is a primary necessity for sustainable and equitable management. Strategies to respond to ground water over-exploitation and deteriorating water quality must be based on a new approach. Practical policies and ...
Systems Approach for Development
Systems Approach for Development presents articles in such topics as methodology, management and planning, education and transfer of technology, industrial application, energy, power systems, transportation and communication systems, urban systems and housing, and water resource systems. A sample of article in methodology is a simplified model approach in the hierarchical control systems. The book discusses such topics as dynamic economic models, creation of an optimum technology for olive oil production, systems prospective, types of technological forecasting techniques, and the use of a learning automata model in resource allocation problems. The optimal rate of transfer of technology is briefly analyzed and a systems approach to technological education is covered. An essay in the development of operator interface techniques is given. A section of the text provides the requirements of an ideal teaching system for microcomputers. The book will provide useful information to engineers, sociologists, economists, computer programmers, students and researchers in the field of science.
LIFE Before, Through & After COVID-19
This is not a biography. But if the pictures scattered in the book are arranged, it will be a good autobiography. This is not a science book, but if the scientific knowledge available in it is collected, it will become a popular science book. This is not a travelogue. This book is a carpet with many strings attached. This Book contains author's ruminations on the eventful professional life spanning over five decades. As an Engineer, he had worked in various capacities in many countries. The author faced many personal challenges along the way. It includes his face-off with scourge of the century, the COVID-19 virus. It culminated during his quarantine. Preceding this home imprisonment, he visited Singapore, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Dubai. During these trips, some of his resolute escorts for decades accompanied him. He could never shake them of despite his best efforts. they were diabetes, heart diseases, stroke, Bronchitis, and macular degeneration. His travel to those countries coincided with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in each one of them. It was a quirk of fate as if coronavirus was his pursuit.
Decoding the Mystery Behind 3, 6 & 9
This book Decoding the mystery behind 3, 6 and 9 has grown out of my increasing wish to learn about myself, to learn about why the creator brought me on this planet, what is the reason for my being and now that I have been sent here, how should I celebrate my life as a gift. We as human beings blindly follow what others say. Our ability to judge any situation is dependent on what others’ have taught us, it may be wrong, it may be right. Our family and social or group conscience rules our judgment and our mind. This book is all about my journey to the creator. It will take you through the hard truths of life. The truth behind the beginning of life when the universe sang to us and gave us the songs of life; the truth when only love existed and gave birth to sex; the truth when mankind was not aware of death; the truth behind human conscience and how it makes us do different things; the truth behind coming out of the materialistic society and starting your journey to the unknown; the truth behind how I had an encounter with different form of life and experienced the existence of the other forms of life.
