The Unprized
‘The Unprized’- the title itself reflects the purpose of this very special book. In this book, you will find beautiful poems, meaningful open letters, and powerful articles. This anthology is an attempt to provide a literary outlet for a spectrum of women writers to appreciate the women in their life. The writers were free to interpret the theme as they wished to, which has led to an amalgamation of inspiring and wholesome tales. From friends and family to famous personalities and sometimes even strangers, the women in our lives can have a huge impact on us. This was a chance for the community of women writers to reflect back and “appreciate the unseen”. It was a great opportunity to create a book with women writers from all around India and other countries. The compilers, Ananya Verma and Sarah Jackson really hope that this book sparks a chain of gratitude and appreciation in the minds of the reader.
Righteous Republic
What India’s founders derived from Western political traditions as they struggled to free their country from colonial rule is widely understood. Less well-known is how India’s own rich knowledge traditions of two and a half thousand years influenced these men as they set about constructing a nation in the wake of the Raj. In Righteous Republic, Ananya Vajpeyi furnishes this missing account, a ground-breaking assessment of modern Indian political thought. Taking five of the most important founding figures—Mohandas Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Abanindranath Tagore, Jawaharlal Nehru, and B. R. Ambedkar—Vajpeyi looks at how each of them turned to classical texts in order to fashion an or...

Hinduism and Law
Covering the earliest Sanskrit rulebooks through to the codification of 'Hindu law' in modern times, this interdisciplinary volume examines the interactions between Hinduism and the law. The authors present the major transformations to India's legal system in both the colonial and post colonial periods and their relation to recent changes in Hinduism. Thematic studies show how law and Hinduism relate and interact in areas such as ritual, logic, politics, and literature, offering a broad coverage of South Asia's contributions to religion and law at the intersection of society, politics and culture. In doing so, the authors build on previous treatments of Hindu law as a purely text-based tradition, and in the process, provide a fascinating account of an often neglected social and political history.

Graph Representation Learning
Graph-structured data is ubiquitous throughout the natural and social sciences, from telecommunication networks to quantum chemistry. Building relational inductive biases into deep learning architectures is crucial for creating systems that can learn, reason, and generalize from this kind of data. Recent years have seen a surge in research on graph representation learning, including techniques for deep graph embeddings, generalizations of convolutional neural networks to graph-structured data, and neural message-passing approaches inspired by belief propagation. These advances in graph representation learning have led to new state-of-the-art results in numerous domains, including chemical sy...
