Women Home, Excelled Men
The essays are written with humor and sensitivity. Each exploration captures the essence of seeking reasons for doing the things that we do, whether it is letting the child within us peek out once in a while or the realization of certain truths about ourselves. The essays are everyday happenings, though unimportant, yet lend a moment of deliberation and leave behind an important lesson, enriching the self. Truly enlivening, it is chicken soup for the soul.
Conversations with Indian Cartoonists
Picking up the pen is, sometimes, like playing with fire, especially in the business of political cartooning. In a profession of stroke-and-tell, where less is more, the brooding cartoonist turns everyday events into spaces for engagement. They draw the line between concern and apathy to bring issues into public view, invariably, shaking us out of our inattentional blindness. After all, they are a tribe––an endangered one––with the silly belief that the funny bone must be tickled. Cartooning in India––a Raj legacy––has come a long way from its colonial beginnings and Punch-imitations. Since Independence, newspapers have hosted the bold and often audacious irreverence of the likes of Shankar and R. K. Laxman. Their laconic lines gave the “Common Man” the voice of an honest opinion. This volume presents conversations with India’s leading political cartoonists which take us into that recondite art of political commentating.

Despite such a huge child population in India, the issues that affect their lives and even survival tend to receive remarkably little attention. This study Children's Rights and Well-being in India: Law, Policy and Practice (Volume I, II and III) is one among the few to address this theme on such a wide canvas that spans both time frame and issues. There has been a growing interest over the past decade in the concept of child's rights-among policy makers, practioners, and academics -in bot...
Women Welfare and Empowerment in India
In India, policies and programs at different levels of the government cover various dimensions and strategies in gender development. Over the years, efforts have been made to empower women socially, economically, and politically. However, due to a lack of synergy and coordination, the achievements are not satisfactory. It is imperative that an integrated policy and strategy be formulated to address the economic, social, and political issues related to women, along with the requisite programs and schemes. Though India has created protective legislations for women, the enactments have not been easy to implement. The vastness of the country, the scattered nature of women workers, their lack of ...
