I'm Pregnant, Not Terminally Ill, You Idiot!
A friendly and laugh out loud funny book on the before, during and after of pregnancy. This book is about the good, bad and downright ugly of being pregnant and being a mother. It is about the journey of the author from the time she conceives to motherhood and to everything between and after. What’s so different about this book? Unlike usual pregnancy books, I’m Pregnant, Not Terminally Ill, You Idiot! does not talk about how the foetus grows, how to have an easy delivery, how to breastfeed, etc. It has fantastic illustrations and is about the real stuff like: How the typical Indian family, friends and colleagues react when they come to know that a woman is pregnant. How a pregnant woman...
Sridevi
She was a diva, a dancing queen and a comedienne par excellence. An actress who set the box office on fire in a male-dominated Bollywood. What made her tick? What did it take to work in films across five languages, and churn out hits like Himmatwala, Chaalbaaz, Moondram Pirai, Nagina, Kshana Kshanam, Mr India, Sadma, Chandni or Lamhe? All this did not come easily for her. An outsider in Bollywood, she was mocked for her poor accent and dubbed 'Ms Thunder Thighs'. Sridevi had to reinvent herself many a time, whether it was by making the white salwar kameez sexy or by playing double roles with flair. Then, after she'd left it all to be a doting wife and mother, she made a brilliant comeback with a memorable role in English Vinglish. This book traces her journey and her battles against odds, and is a tribute to her as an actor and as a woman.

Rescuing Railway Children
Rescuing Railway Children focuses on runaway children in India who have used trains to take them away from home, and who live on railway station platforms and in trains. It presents the issues and challenges of reaching out to these ‘railway children’, particularly through the experiences of Sathi, an NGO based in Bangalore. This organisation has chosen to work with children on railway platforms across India with the intention of reuniting them with families wherever possible. The book deals with platform outreach and focuses on shelters close to the stations. The reuniting process is examined from a practical as well as a child-rights perspective. It expands the horizons of analysis by presenting the system prevailing in the UK as a counterpoint, thus highlighting the concerns and current thinking on institutional care and fostering at an international level.

Songs of Lust and Love
The book explores intimacy of human love as expressed through sexual attraction between man and woman. The poems explore the breath-taking depths of erotic intimacy through the five senses of sight, sound, touch, taste and smell.
For the poet marriage is the sacred union of two souls on the path of God realisation. Romantic attraction prepares the human heart for ultimate God communion. The Creator has split Himself into Man and Woman for cosmic play. By seeing one's mirror image in one another, a couple in love can retrace their path back to the divine origin. Hence sexual intimacy should be seen as a worship of God, and erotic art as a celebration of spiritual life.
Underneath the sexual imagery there is an intense yearning for God realisation. The poems provide a penetrative new interpretation of the universal truths expounded in the scriptures of all world religions – e.g. Veda, Bible, Gita and Quran.
Lalitha Iyer is a pseudonym of Hemangi Sharma, the mystic poet-scholar from Kashmir. The book has been edited by Dr Tapan Kumar Pradhan, who has also written its foreword and introduction.

The Lalita Cult
The Lalita Cult has figured and still figures prominently among the countless cults of ancient India. Lalita is looked upon by the Hindus as a divine manifestation of the goddess Durga. The cult of Lalita is intimately associated with the Sakti cult or the worship of the Divine as Energy in the feminine form. The present book studies the cult of Lalita from a historical point of view. Though this study is mainly based on the Lalitopakhayana section of the Brahmanda Purana, an endeavour is made to review other phases of the Sakti cult and its place in Vedic literature, and particularly to examine its philosophical basis. The study also aims to remove certain misconceptions and improved theories which have obscured the true import and value of the Sakti cult.
