Until We Meet Again
Some people believe that saying "goodbye" or simply "bye" means "forever." Either forever or for a long time. When you say "until we meet again," people get the impression that there will be another time. It could happen sooner rather than later. "Until we meet again" provides variety and flavour to how people can end discussions and encounters. “Until We Meet Again” is a book that consist of heartfelt poems and proses that talks about some unfinished goodbyes, unrequited love and abandoned stories that will overwhelm you.
Women’s Empowerment in India
The volume brings together readings describing a range of less-traversed aspects and transferences of women’s rights and struggles in India and develops a comprehensive understanding of the interface between women’s activism and politics. The book documents and discusses diverse ways in which Indian women have struggled for empowerment, political voice and representation, and rallied against injustice and discrimination. Against the backdrop of women’s assertion of rights and negotiations for empowerment, the chapters in this volume explore diverse facets of collective agency, and emanations of women’s politico-legal struggles against stereotypes of gender and class in post-independe...
The Violent Domestic
In 2005, after considerable campaigning by women’s groups, the Indian government brought in an important new law, the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act (PWDVA). A civil law, the PWDVA was meant to combat violence against women in familial and intimate spaces. In The Violent Domestic, the authors ask: how effective has this law been? Have there been any changes in institutional regimes and their politics as a result of this legislation? They look at seven districts of West Bengal and interrogate, through the testimonies of survivors, whether the law reshapes the domestic, or whether the embeddedness of violence in the domestic is so complete that change through law must necessarily be partial and imperfect. Importantly, the questions the authors ask go beyond the heteronormative approach that centres only the married woman in the discourse around domestic violence. They include the voices of lesbian and transgender women, as well as women with physical and psycho-social disabilities. Given these unique insights, The Violent Domestic will be a welcome addition to legal and gender studies.
Advances in Organic Farming
Organic agriculture contributes significantly to environmental safety and sustainability of land productivity worldwide. This new book provides an understanding of organic farming, discussing the nutritional importance of organic foods, the effect of climate change on organic agriculture, crop management practices, soil and nutrient management, organic seed production and pest and disease management in organic farming. Some specific topics include the economics of organic farming, strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, integrated organic farming systems, biofortification in organic farming, water and weed management, holistic plant breeding, biofertilizers and vermicomposting, organic seed production, and much more. Bridging the gap between literature and practical applications, this comprehensive book provides a plethora of information for academicians, scientists, researchers, students, farmers, NGOs, agriculture entrepreneurs, and progressive farmers in developing a sound knowledge base on organic farming.
Music is Magic | Music is Medicine
‘Neuro-management’ (‘NM’), classifies ‘Happiness’ into: ‘Smart Happiness’ that comes transiently with a smart release of the happiness neuro-chemical Dopamine; ‘Short-lived’ or ‘Short Happiness’ where the happy experience is retained a little longer and then gets stored in the long-term memory storage, retrievable on demand; and, finally, ‘Sustained Happiness’ which is long-lasting. ‘Bio-musicology’ is an offshoot of ‘NM’. It deals with the impact of music on body, brain, mind and soul. This book discusses, with diverse examples, how music can have ‘magical’ effects producing both ‘Smart’ and ‘Short’ varieties of happiness. The author believes that, if properly applied with clear understanding of the patient’s pathology and the impact of the sonic vibrations, music can also serve as ‘medicine’ and provide ‘Sustained Happiness’.
Applications of Internet of Things
This book features extended versions of selected papers from the International Conference on Computer Communication and Internet of Things (ICCCIoT 2020). Presenting recent research addressing new trends and challenges, and promising technologies and developments, it covers various topics related to IoT (Internet of Things) and communications, and machine learning for applications such as energy management systems, smart asthma alerts, smart irrigation systems, cloud healthcare systems, preventing side channel attacks, and cooperative spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks.

Safety and Resilience of Higher Educational Institutions
The world has spent the majority of 2020 enduring an unpreceded crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of this crisis has been enormous, and the situation has yet to be resolved. It is still difficult to anticipate when the pandemic will end and how our lives will have changed after the crisis. Higher educational institutions (HEIs) have also had to undergo tremendous transformation, in particular, changing a conventional educational, teaching, and learning system to a digital and online mode and cancelling or postponing important events such as graduation and entrance ceremonies and entrance examinations. In addition, a number of HEIs have been facing financial constraints due t...
Thermotolerance in Crop Plants
This book collates various aspects of stress tolerance in crop plants. It primarily focuses on the heat and temperature related stress, starting from the severity of the problem on quantity and quality of yield under the threat of global climate change. The content also explores other mechanistic dimensions such as physiochemical and molecular mechanism underlying thermotolerance, signaling mechanism under heat stress, role of heat shock proteins in modulating thermotolerance, omics approach for development of climate smart-crop. Chapters discuss different approaches used in the past to develop heat stress tolerant crop plants, list of developed thermotolerant agriculturally important crop plants, redox homeostasis under heat stress, nutrient uptake and use efficiency in plants under heat stress and much more. The book is a useful compilation for researchers working in the area of abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants, as well as for students of plant physiology and agricultural sciences.
Dew Computing
This book discusses the dew computing paradigm with the evolution of future-generation technologies through the cloud and the Internet of Things in the scope of machine intelligence. Dew computing is an emerging paradigm that inherits a flexible and super-hybrid methodology to afford personal information to users with self-regulating internetwork connectivity. The contents conceptualize how the end-users can benefit from data analytics through intelligent data sensing, computing, analytics, and distributed scenarios using a dew-cloud computational framework over the Internet of Things environment. The main focus of this book is to bring all the related technologies into a single platform so that undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, academicians, and the industry can easily understand dew computing, future generations of cloud computing, machine intelligence, and representation learning in IoT-enabled technologies.
