"Atrocities against women are on the rise. What types of women are the victims of violence? What types of males are the perpetrators of crimes? Could any theoretical analysis be offered for explaining the etiology of violence by males against females? Will taking up the cudgel by women's organizations on behalf of the victims and women's self-awareness and using bold and courageous steps to face the physical and mental torture and sexual harassment prove effective? This book examines these aspects and some more crucial issues with a sociological perspective. It also assesses the issue as to how the victims of violence face the shock and attempt to adjust themselves in the social environment, in spite of the biased attitudes, lack of sympathy and callousness of the concerned agencies. A number of initiatives have also been proposed to tackle the most gruesome problem of violence against women.Providing a balance between practical and theoretical issues and concerns, the book is an essential reading for sociologists, criminologists, psychologists, women activists, health care workers and social workers."
“Every person has dreams; some may be realized while some may remain dreams only. I have always believed in dreaming and dreaming big. I have also believed that mere dreaming is not enough. One must work hard to realize those dreams by putting in honest efforts in the right direction. I have also had several dreams, some of which were realized but some did remain dreams only. It is reasonable to analyze, at this advanced age, which of the dreams could be turned into realities, and which remained dreams only. I have the pleasure of sharing with my readers my life time experience in this direction.”
India's over 200 million Dalits, once called "untouchables," have been mobilized by social movements and political parties, but the outcomes of this mobilization are puzzling. Dalits' ethnic parties have performed poorly in elections in states where movements demanding social equality have been strong while they have succeeded in states where such movements have been entirely absent or weak. In Mobilizing the Marginalized, Amit Ahuja demonstrates that the collective action of marginalized groups--those that are historically stigmatized and disproportionately poor ED is distinct. Drawing on extensive original research conducted across four of India's largest states, he shows, for the marginalized, social mobilization undermines the bloc voting their ethnic parties' rely on for electoral triumph and increases multi-ethnic political parties' competition for marginalized votes. He presents evidence showing that a marginalized group gains more from participating in a social movement and dividing support among parties than from voting as a bloc for an ethnic party.

A tester’s mind is never at rest. It is constantly searching, over populated with information, and continually discovering changes to context. A tester at work is interacting with plenty of people who don’t understand testing, pretend to understand or have conflicting ideas of testing. A combination of all this creates restlessness in a tester’s mind. A restless mind ends up with fragmented learning and chaos. This impacts the quality of life itself. Is this book for you?
