Unapologetically Her
Unapologetically Her is not your typical love story...it is a story of love, tenacity, struggle, conflict, dejection and so much more. Set in current day, small town India it traces the life and love of two very ordinary young women who are very different and yet so much alike and are drawn together in their journey from self-discovery to coming out as lesbians. The journey is filled with pain, rejection, self doubt, religious bias, ridicule and social ostracism. And of course there is society. The "what will people say?" angle that every middle class Indian family and individual is so concerned about and the fear to be who they are and reveal their true self that is part and parcel of this fear. It is this fear coupled with the need to conform and fit in that drives a wedge in their relationship. And then there arises the question of whether each one of them is prepared to go down that journey and be who she truly is...unapologetically her. Don't put this down if you want to find out!

Their work moves the field of Soviet history several large steps forward." —Slavic Review Lenin's New Economic Policy of the 1920s, although a relatively free and open potential alternative to Soviet communism, was also a time of extreme tension, as Russian society and culture were rocked by the forces of resistance and change. These essays examine the social and cultural dimensions of NEP in urban and rural Russia in the years before Stalin and rapid industrialization.
Sue the Messenger
Books come with certain advantages for the journalist/researcher wanting to get the big story out to readers. First, there is a propensity among people to take a book more seriously than a news item or a series of reports in dailies, websites or periodicals. Besides, books by their very nature have a shelf life. Moreover, a book on a contentious subject can be far more damaging for its subjects than news reports, which are ephemeral by nature. Public memory is short too. In other words, when a journalist brings out a publication that is critical in nature of a corporate, the book is taken more seriously, and perceived to be a far bigger threat. A damning report in a newspaper or a magazine t...
GAS WARS
Prime minister of India Manmohan Singh has been accused of changing ministerial portfolios at the behest of the Reliance group. There have been claims that the group deliberately ‘squatted’ on reserves of natural gas and curtailed production in anticipation of higher prices that are administered by the government, to the detriment of the interests of the country’s people. Spokespersons of the group deny these alligations and contend that gas output from the Krishna-Godavari basin came down on account of unforeseen adverse geological surprises.
