The IIMA Story
How was IIMA born? Who were the key players? What has made it synonymous to success? These questions become even more relevant as the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA) marks its Golden Jubilee year in 2011. Established in 1961, IIMA is the first Indian business school to achieve international recognition. In 2002, Economist Intelligence Unit’s list declared IIMA as the most selective management school in the world. And in 2011, IIMA has been ranked number 7 in Financial Times (FT)’s global ranking of Masters in Management Programme. In this well researched and timely book, Prafull Anubhai charts the journey of this premier institution from its inception to what is it today—the construction of its iconic campus by American architect Louis Kahn, policies and processes that set the benchmark, exemplary leadership exhibited by its various chairmen and directors, and the vision and future challenges for the institute. In The IIIMA Story, Prafull weaves all the threads together to present a vivid history of one of India’s greatest pride that has shaped the lives of many individuals through generations.
Photography's Other Histories
Moving the critical debate about photography away from its current Euro-American center of gravity, Photography’s Other Histories breaks with the notion that photographic history is best seen as the explosion of a Western technology advanced by the work of singular individuals. This collection presents a radically different account, describing photography as a globally disseminated and locally appropriated medium. Essays firmly grounded in photographic practice—in the actual making of pictures—suggest the extraordinary diversity of nonwestern photography. Richly illustrated with over 100 images, Photography’s Other Histories explores from a variety of regional, cultural, and historic...
Poetries from Heart
There is no such thing as a civilization without poets. Poets do not live in a bubble, even if the act of creation is done alone. They are not hermits living in ivory towers, but rather producers of a universe that they share with us. Poets serve a vital educational role, whether their poetry is written or sung. Poetry is meant to be shared in a respectful manner. That is how it moulds a person's body and psyche. It is a vehicle for imparting human knowledge and values, such as a sense of good and evil, history, great deeds of men and women, historical traditions, and linkages with nature, by pursuing the paths of emotion, sensitivity, and imagination. This knowledge is the cultivation of imagination and memory, as well as the awakening of the senses via the creation of beauty in language and words. It's a show that involves the entire body and all of the senses. Because the format - what is said or written – is just as important as the content or "message." “Poetries from Heart” is a book that comprises of poems inked by young minds.
