This book contains stories. The stories contain information and lessons. The information and lessons are coated in simple language and humor. The idea of this book is to provide information about the working of bridge engineers in field covering their struggles, joy, triumphs and failures. Many a mistake mentioned in the book appears silly, but real people do these mistakes in real life, often with tragic consequences. Since the information is provided in the form of stories, the readers will find it easy to get the message, and to retain it. It is meant to be a resource for the fresh engineers, for the students and for people interested in civil engineering or asset management. Designers and academicians who don’t get much exposure to the field conditions will also find this book extremely useful. This book, thus, bridges the gaps between theory and practice, between field and design office and between the freshman and experienced people. And so, it is aptly named as ‘Stories That Bridge’.
About the Book If the 1991 reforms globalized the Indian economy and brought vibrancy to the corporate sector, the year 2015-2016 can be said to have ushered the concept of 'commercial justice' that never existed in India. Prior to this, the legal system was classified between civil and criminal justice only without any concept of commercial justice which has emerged through two significant legislations- The Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code, 2016 and The Arbitration & Conciliation (Amendment) Act, 2015. These legislations are path-breaking and have far reaching implications for the Indian economy and the business world. The Supreme Court in a short span of five years has interpreted these legisl...
