Footprints In The Sands Of Time - Vedantha Desika
When I was seven years old, I was invested with the sacred thread and renamed as Venkatanatha after Vedantha Desika. I have been an avid reader and chanter of his devotional verses ever since. More recently, I have had the good fortune of reading some of his other works in some depth. I was astonished by the range and extent of his literary and philosophical compositions. In due course, the writing instinct in me impelled me to undertake this arduous task of critically analysing his contributions and their relevance to the present day.
Footprints in the Sands of time
The book has 6 chapters dealing with Ramanuja's birth in 1017 AD in Sriperumputhoor near Kancheepuram in Tamilnadu, his early years, his arrival in Srirangam, his multifaceted and ceaseless activity to streamline the affairs and worship of the Srirangam temple, his authoring of Sreebhashyam, a commentary to the Brahma Sutra of Sage Vyasa, his enunciation of the Visishtadvaitha School of Philosophy, his pilgrimage all over India, his flight to Tirunarayanapuram near Melkote in Karnataka to escape from the murderous attempt by the ruling Chola king, his consecration of the Panchanarayana Kshetras in Karnataka during his stay in Tirunarayanapuram and his acceptance into the community of Vaishnavas a. A large number of people were not allowed to enter and worship in Vaishnavite temples. The book also covers his return to Srirangam after the death of the Chola king and his establishment of 74 Simhasanadhipathis to continue his work after his passing away at the end of 120 tumultuous years. A translation of Vedanta Desikan's Yatiraja Sapthathi into English prose is an additional attractive feature of this book.
Festschrift
This is essentially a book which belongs to the genre of anthology of autobiographical narratives of some of the finest products of IIT Madras who have come together of their own accord, at the invitation of their former teacher, on the eve of his 80th birthday. Within its covers one can find situations of common occurrence and interest and different ways in which they are handled by different people. Their collective experiences have resulted in a cross-sectional view of current Indian society, looked at from different perspectives. They are presented in a semi- popular style which holds the attention of the readers riveted to these issues and their solutions. The presentation is fluid and conversational rather than serious and technical. As such it is bound to interest a large number of people who are engaged in various professions and belong to many different strata of Indian society.
Industrial Mathematics and Complex Systems
The book discusses essential topics in industrial and applied mathematics such as image processing with a special focus on medical imaging, biometrics and tomography. Applications of mathematical concepts to areas like national security, homeland security and law enforcement, enterprise and e-government services, personal information and business transactions, and brain-like computers are also highlighted. These contributions – all prepared by respected academicians, scientists and researchers from across the globe – are based on papers presented at the international conference organized on the occasion of the Silver Jubilee of the Indian Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (ISIAM) held from 29 to 31 January 2016 at Sharda University, Greater Noida, India. The book will help young scientists and engineers grasp systematic developments in those areas of mathematics that are essential to properly understand challenging contemporary problems.
