Legacy Of St Thomas: Apostle Of India
In this book, the author traces the footsteps of the Apostle, reviewing the unchallengeable evidence of his presence and mission in our land, still vibrant in the living traditions, institutions, feasts, customs and folklore of the Christian community.
Vijayan
His cartoons may not make you laugh. Even when the contours of Vijayan?s unique strokes tickle your imagination, the laughter, when it comes, comes salted with the inevitable sadness that their biting sarcasm evokes. Vijayan has drawn with painful awareness of the reality around him?and that is no laughing matter. It was during the Emergency, when the elements of power in India had taken their ugliest shapes, that Vijayan?s cartoons lashed out best against the stink in the corridors of the establishment. .V. Vijayan took a Masters degree in English Literature from Madras University in 1954. After a short stint of teaching in the University, he began his career as a political cartoonist in 1958. Vijayan is also one of Kerala's prominent novelists and short story writers. After being in Delhi for about 40 years, he has now retired to a secluded and peaceful life in Kerala.
Apostle
Peter, Matthew, Thomas, John :Who were these men and what was their relationship to Jesus? Tom Bissell gives us rich and deeply informed answers to those ancient questions. Written with warmth, humour, and a rare acumen, Apostle is a brilliant and exhaustive synthesis of travel writing, centuries of biblical history, and a deep lifelong relationship with Christianity. Bissell explores not just who these renowned and pious men were (and weren't), but how their identities have taken shape over two millennia. Bissell, in his search for this elusive set of truths, has traveled the world, visiting holy sites from Rome and Jerusalem to Turkey, India, and Kyrgyzstan, and he captures vividly the rich diversity of Christianity's global reach. Apostle is an unusual, erudite, and hilarious book, an intoxicating combination of religious, intellectual, and personal adventure.
Biomolecular Forms and Functions
Understanding the functions and properties of molecules in living systems requires a detailed knowledge of their three-dimensional structures and the conformational variability that allows them to adopt multiple functional forms. Interpreting biological systems in the language of three-dimensional structures is of fundamental importance and innumerable research groups around the world are working in this area. This book is a compilation of articles describing attempts at understanding the intricacies of biological systems through the structures of and interactions between their constituent molecules.
Conscience of The Race
The book is a detailed and wonderful study on the Offbeat cinema in India. The author through the title says that the offbeat genre, more than the mainstream, truly reflects the conscience of the Indian people.

Salts of Amino Acids
Over the last decades, amino acids have been found to be of importance in many fields of science. Apart from their biological function, this family of organic compounds has been employed in the synthesis of a vast variety of salts, with impact on areas such as materials science, pharmaceutical or physical research. This covers a wide range, from the discovery of important ferroelectrics or non-linear optical materials to nutrients, flavor enhancers or drugs. This book describes amino acids and their salts with cations, anions and inorganic compounds from a chemical, physical and crystallographical point of view. Additional data on structural properties, crystal growth and the relation of structure and physical properties of amino acid salts is discussed.
