Since the beginning of mankind on Earth, if the "busyness" process was successful, then some form of benefit sustained it. The fundamentals are obvious: get the right inputs (materials, labor, money, and ideas); transform them into highly demanded, quality outputs; and make it available in time to the end consumer. Illustrating how operations relate to the rest of the organization, Production and Operations Management Systems provides an understanding of the production and operations management (P/OM) functions as well as the processes of goods and service producers. The modular character of the text permits many different journeys through the materials. If you like to start with supply chai...

Somewhere deep inside, my intuition, my sixth sense, which is an exceptional gift from GOD to me, indicated that I already had the answer. I knew the person who may have orchestrated this …? My thoughts were repeatedly drawn to the statement I had heard a few days back; “DSP Saheb, God Almighty has granted a hidden charisma to a beautiful woman, who has the power to change the world and much depends on the women who exercises such influence for better or for worse. Women are the progenitors of entire creation, yet history justifies that its often a woman that has led to the bloodiest of wars. Man is but a conduit for the will of a woman”. I was further stunned to hear his views, when he added: DSP Saheb; “Unbelievably she is an outstandingly beautiful woman, with a regal upbringing; but off-late I realised she is the personification of hate, envy, greed and has the soul of a serpent. She very effectively uses her beauty and sensuality as potent weapons.” I do not have any hesitation in making this statement in confidence; probably till then, I was in her emotional captivity…

From the early Vedic period, the Vaishyas, the oldest mercantile community of India, generated wealth for the nation through their remarkable efforts.

The global demand for energy is met mainly by fossil fuels. Their excessive and indiscriminate use, coupled with increasing demand for energy, will soon deplete their existing reserves. Therefore, it is extremely important to find alternative, environment-friendly, and ecologically sound sources of energy for meeting the present and future energy requirements. Biogas Technology: Towards Sustainable Development makes an attempt to explore the potential of utilizing biodegradable biomass as fuel and manure.
The Life of a Text offers a vivid portrait of one community's interaction with its favorite text—the epic Ramcaritmanas—and the way in which performances of the epic function as a flexible and evolving medium for cultural expression. Anthropologists, historians of religion, and readers interested in the culture of North India and the performance arts will find breadth of subject, careful scholarship, and engaging presentation in this unique and beautifully illustrated examination of Hindi culture. The most popular and influential text of Hindi-speaking North India, the epic Ramcaritmanas is a sixteenth century retelling of the Ramayana story by the poet Tulsidas. This masterpiece of pre-modern Hindi literature has always reached its largely illiterate audiences primarily through oral performance including ceremonial recitation, folksinging, oral exegesis, and theatrical representation. Drawing on fieldwork in Banaras, Lutgendorf breaks new ground by capturing the range of performance techniques in vivid detail and tracing the impact of the epic in its contemporary cultural context.
