Indian Diaspora
Borders give rise to the line of division, the suffering of homelessness, and the loss of culture. The book masterfully ties together the stories of those who have been uprooted and have endured humiliating experiences abroad, as well as the voyage of Indian writers who were dispersed, including Jhumpa Lahiri, Kiran Desai and Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni. Moreover, the book bears witness to the disadvantaged and disgraced migrants, refugees, and exiles who have used their writing to highlight effectively the concerns related to migration.
Headlines From the Heartland
Based on over 150 interviews with journalists, readers, publishers, politicians, administrators, and activists, as well as expert content analysis, this book tells the ongoing story of the press in the Hindi heartland. Against the backdrop of the relationship between press and society, author Sevanti Ninan describes the emergence of a local public sphere; reinvention of the public sphere by the new non-elite readership; the effect on politics, administration, and social activism; the consequences of making newspapers reader rather than editor-led; the democratization of the Hindi press with the advent of village-level citizen journalists; and the impact of caste and communalism on the Hindi press.
Verghese Kurien
When Verghese Kurien stepped down from the train and on to the dusty platform in Anand, Gujarat, on 13 May, 1949, little did he know that his life was going to change unimaginably. Waiting for him was not just his own destiny but that of thousands of small, marginalised farmers who, until then, had only known exploitation and deprivation. The story of Dr. Kurien is the story of Amul. It is the story of Operation Flood, the 'billion-liter idea' that set India on the top of the world map for milk production. A die-hard patriot, Kurien was committed to the co-operative cause. He put the milk industry in the hands of the farmers, believing firmly that with ownership would come responsibility and great success. And he was right. Amar Chitra Katha traces the story of the man who is known as the 'Father of the White Revolution'
