Tolley's Handbook of Disaster and Emergency Management
The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 modernised the UK’s approach to disaster and emergency management, taking into account the kinds of threats the country faces in the 21st century, including terrorist threats and threats to the environment. This third edition of the Tolley’s Handbook of Disaster and Emergency Management has been fully updated to cover the topics and themes reflected in the Act, and collates all the key components of disaster and emergency planning for both the public and the private sector, covering both man-made and natural disasters. Written from a UK practitioner’s point of view, using case studies and examples, it helps readers to understand and formulate disaster and emergency policies and systems for their workplace. Its practical approach will help organizations to ensure business continuity and safeguard the health and safety of their staff in the event of a disaster. The new edition has been updated in line with the latest legislation: * Civil Contingencies Act 2004 * Amendment to the Control of Major Accident Hazards (COMAH) Regulations * Corporate Manslaughter Bill

Indian Antiquary
"At a time when each Society had its own medium of propogation of its researches ... in the form of Transactions, Proceedings, Journals, etc., a need was strongly felt for bringing out a journal devoted exclusively to the study and advancement of Indian culture in all its aspects. [This] encouraged Jas Burgess to launch the 'Indian antiquary' in 1872. The scope ... was in his own words 'as wide as possible' incorporating manners and customs, arts, mythology, feasts, festivals and rites, antiquities and the history of India ... Another laudable aim was to present the readers abstracts of the most recent researches of scholars in India and the West ... 'Indian antiquary' also dealt with local legends, folklore, proverbs, etc. In short 'Indian antiquary' was ...entirely devoted to the study of MAN - the Indian - in all spheres ...

My Life, Lessons and a Teacher Within
My life, lessons, and teacher within, provide insights and subtlety of life in simple but captivative English. The book is stimulating and inspirational. It is unique in many different aspects. The author describes the historical incidences that impacted the communities and nations. The lives and struggles of ordinary people living in four countries, India, Zimbabwe, England, and Canada, are portrayed as witnessed by the author. Forever bleeding wounds of history, a partition of Punjab, struggles of the blacks of Africa and aboriginals of Canada captivates the reader to feel their pain. This book is the testimony of an immigrant, a man of colour within a layered society, divided within shades of colour, creed, and religion. The lessons learned in politics, business, family, culture, and professional are stated in the simplest way possible. Some chapters of the book provide knowledgeable insights into India, England, Zimbabwe, and Canada. The book prescribes the desirable criteria for a successful life, good health, shelter or roof over the head, enough money to live, a caring family, and a respectful place in society.
