This book is my endeavor to make all of us check that are we consciously parenting our children in true sense or are just monkeying around in our daily stroll between home, job and kids? Almost in every organization, we are given some basic induction training before starting our new role. To make the fresh recruit, accustomed with the new role and responsibility. Then how are we presumed to know about such an important job of rising the next generation? Parenting, in my opinion should be a separate academic course or at least a compulsory subject in our education system. It is because simply giving birth to a child and providing him basic amenities is not parenting. This book is compilation of my Parenting Sutras- my solutions to the issues that we daily face in our family. Issues that are quite subtle but if not addressed the right way, at the right time may soon aggravate to bigger problems. Through this medium, I aim to pass on my knowledge, understanding and tried and tested tips for the benefit of all my readers. It is because Parenting matters. So, let us talk about all those matters that matter in your parenting journey.
The book consists of the latest research in biomedical and communication integration. It discusses the fabrication and testing outcomes of the Internet of Things-enabled biomedical applications. The book focuses on recent advances in the field of planar antenna design and their applications in space communication, mobile communication, wireless communication, and wearable applications. Planar antennas are also used in medical applications in microwave imaging, medical implants, hyperthermia treatments, and wireless wellness monitoring. This book presents planar antenna design concepts, methods, and techniques to enhance the performance parameters and applications for IoT and device-to-device communication. It provides the latest techniques used for the design of antennas in terms of their structures, defected ground, MIMO, and fractal design. This book also addresses the specific steps to resolve issues in designing antennas and how to design conformal and miniaturized antenna structures for various applications.
The global population is growing at an alarming rate and is anticipated to reach about 9.6 billion by the end of 2050. Addressing the problem of food scarcity for budding population vis-à-vis environmental changes is the main challenge plant biologists face in the contemporary era. Plant growth and productivity are scarce in many areas of the world due to a wide range of environmental stresses. The productive land is dwindling progressively by various natural and anthropogenic means that lead to enormous crop losses worldwide. Plants often experience these stresses and have the ability to withstand them. However, when the stress exceeds the normal tolerance level, plants accumulate organic ...
This book presents state-of-the-art research on the many facets of the plant microbiome, including diversity, ecology, physiology and genomics, as well as molecular mechanisms of plant-microbe interactions. Topics considered include the importance of microbial secondary metabolites in stimulating plant growth, induced systemic resistance, tolerance to abiotic stress, and biological control of plant pathogens. The respective contributions show how microbes help plants to cope with abiotic stresses, and represent significant progress toward understanding the complex regulatory networks critical to host-microbe interaction and plant adaptation in extreme environments. New insights into the mechanisms of microbial actions in inducing plant stress tolerance open new doors for improving the efficacy of microbial strategies, and could produce new ways of economically increasing crop yields without harming the environment. As such, this book offers an essential resource for students and researchers with an interest in plant-microbe interaction, as well as several possibilities for employing the plant microbiome in the enhancement of crop productivity under future climate change scenarios.
What would you do if you found yourself in a Train Compartment that could talk?Would you be scared? Would you scream or run?Well, it sounds weird, but I have been in one such 'Talking' Compartment and if you don't trust me, just ask these women, who were there with me that morning.Bhavya - a young and energetic fighter who wanted to fly but destiny chopped her wings.Bhaumi - a workaholic and bullheaded woman who knew nothing beyond her duty towards her family.Tarini - a submissive and quiet orphan entrapped in the web of lies and deception.Ramaa - an introvert and homely mother whose entire world got devastated when she lost her husband.Vaidehi - a witty and quirky woman who loved to nurture but could not become a mother.They all boarded that special compartment with me that day and what a journey it was!Do you want to share a ride? Hop in to meet the amazing compartment and these inspiring women.Order now to witness the extraordinary tales of ordinary women- inspired by true events!
This greatly expanded and updated edition of a classic reference work comprises two volumes offering a compendium of methods for multiplying orchids through micropropagation. A detailed collection of procedures and methods for multiplying orchids, including organ, tissue, and cell culture techniques in vitro Presents classic techniques that have been in the forefront of orchid propagation since they were first developed in 1949 Detailed procedures are appended with tables and complete recipes for a large number of culture media Includes many illustrations, chemical formulas, historical vignettes, and seldom seen illustrations of people, orchids, apparatus and tools “... an excellent resource like its predecessor, ...both informative and captivating, and served as a reminder of why we go to such extremes in our quest to propagate these plants.” American Orchid Society, 2009 “...in the sense of its universal value and importance, this Second Edition will undoubtedly be considered a classic, if only because it will serve as a sole and invaluable resource on the subject.” Plant Science Bulletin, 2009

Decades of conflict and war have forced millions of men, women and children to flee from their homes and seek refuge in other parts of the country or in foreign lands - Afghanistan is one such country. This book is a study of the displaced Afghan migrant population in India, in particular the persecuted Sikhs and Hindus who are religious minorities in Afghanistan and make up a majority of Afghan migrants in India. It explores the relationship between acculturation and identity development. By focusing on the interactions between the Afghan immigrant population and the Indian society, the author analyses how the community negotiates identity and marginality in a country that does not recogniz...
