Stardust and Moonlight is an anthology of 26 pieces from authors of all ages and stages, from aspiring beginners to seasoned wordsmiths who write in styles ranging from poetry to short stories to essays. It is an ode to the thoughts that keep you up in the middle of the night, an ode to tales that wouldn’t be complete without the setting of darkness. Some words are meant for when the world is asleep, when dreams can exist freely somewhere between the boundaries of reality and fantasy. The body of work in this collection is as diverse as the constellations scattered across a night sky. Happy stargazing!
Sarah Hrdy argues that if human babies were to survive in a world of scarce resources, they would need to be cared for, not only by their mothers but also by siblings, aunts, fathers, friends—and, with any luck, grandmothers. Out of this complicated and contingent form of childrearing, says Hrdy, came the human capacity for understanding others.
We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Oncology "Women in Cancer Imaging and Image-directed Interventions” series of article collections. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
Looking at the present scenario of the educational market in India which is teaming up with schools, it is a dire need of the hour to create a ‘Ready Reckoner’, providing a comprehensive reference material for educators and educational administrators about management, administration and laws governing such organizations. The author has been sensitized by working with different sets of defence organizations and schools. He has very copiously addressed the need of the hour by writing this book on school management, which also includes safety and security aspects. - Shashi Thakar, Chairperson, Sanjeewan Vidyalaya Trust, Panchgani
