Reinventing India
When India was invented as a "modern" country in the years after Independence in 1947 it styled itself as a secular, federal, democratic Republic committed to an ideology of development. Nehru's India never quite fulfilled this promise, but more recently his vision of India has been challenged by two "revolts of the elites": those of economic liberalization and Hindu nationalism. These revolts have been challenged, in turn, by various movements, including those of India's "Backward Classes". These movements have exploited the democratic spaces of India both to challenge for power and to contest prevailing accounts of politics, the state and modernity. Reinventing India offers an analytical a...
MICROBIAL MYSTERIES OF INDIA: INDIA’S RICH LEGACY IN MICROBIOLOGY
Microbiology, the scientific study of microorganisms, has significantly advanced our understanding of the invisible world that teems with bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microscopic life forms. While modern microbiology has made remarkable strides in unraveling the mysteries of these tiny organisms, it is essential not to overlook the profound importance of traditional knowledge in this field. In India, a nation with a rich cultural heritage dating back millennia, traditional knowledge has played a pivotal role in shaping the understanding of microbes and their applications. This knowledge, often passed down through generations, has coexisted with modern scientific discoveries, making it...
Molecularly Imprinted Polymers
This book is divided into 5 sections starting with an historic perspective and fundamental aspects on the synthesis and recognition by imprinted polymers. The second section contains 8 up-to-date overview chapters on current approaches to molecular and ion imprinting. This is followed by two chapters on new material morphologies and in the last two sections various analytical applications of imprinted polymers are given, with the last four chapters devoted to the promising field of imprinted polymers in chemical sensors.The authors of this volume have widely different backgrounds; mainly polymer chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry and analytical chemistry, which means that this book has an interdisciplinary character and should appeal to a broad audience.

From Leapfrogging to Pole-vaulting
An exhilarating manifesto for the future, this book convinces readers to make the shift from reactive leapfrogging to proactive pole-vaulting through radical transformation. The unique '3-4-7 framework' demonstrates how a paralysing mass of problems can be brought down to a formidable formula, thus making every problem solvable, no matter how big and complex. The book is dotted with inspiring case studies that can instil confidence in people from across the world to put this framework into practice for assured success. Dr Mashelkar and Mr Pandit ably show in this must-read book that-as an interplay of global issues constantly raise the bar for innovation today-there has never been a better time to use our learnings to pole-vault over those bars into a new future!
Energy, Environment And Sustainable Development
"The papers in this volume, presented by the author on different occasions in the capacity Chairman of the Delhi State Centre, the Institution of Engineers (India), address various issues concerning energy, environment and sustainable development. Discussing the application of energy and environment to corporate and social sectors, the author looks into the issues of sustianable energy supply, power distribution through private companies, impact of energy efficiency on power sector, technology, R&D, CNG, rural energy and the role of NGO's. He also examines the impact of government policies on reforms. Environmental concerns for effective corporate planning, environmental protection, disaster mitigation, capacity building, mountains and the safer human settlements, and sustainable water supply make part of the deliberations as well"--Dust jacket.
Agricultural Research Management
Quite simply, this is required reading for anyone involved in managing agricultural research. With a wealth of practical solutions and advice, it offers a how-to guide for managers as well as highlighting the differences in the way that different nations approach this key area of research – one of the most widespread forms of inquiry in the world. The lessons that can be learned from this brilliant study apply in equal measure to developed and developing nations.
