Hinduism and the Ethics of Warfare in South Asia
This book traces the evolution of theories of warfare in India from the dawn of civilization, focusing on the debate between Dharmayuddha (Just War) and Kutayuddha (Unjust War) within Hindu philosophy. This debate centers around four questions: What is war? What justifies it? How should it be waged? And what are its potential repercussions?
Letting Go of Baggage
Far from being a personal journey with insights only for the author, Letting Go of Baggage is a lesson in life itself for all of us. Peter Kalellis, a practicing psychotherapist, reflects on his own life and shares with the reader the wonderful gems that he has learned along the way. The book tells us about maintaining relationships, about parenting, and about becoming independent and happy-the ultimate goal of letting go of our baggage. It is inspiring and courageous, and is filled with practical help for letting go of the past, enriching the present, and enjoying the future. The lessons and reflections at the end of each chapter will appeal to all readers who know what it means to reflect on life and the situations that confront us as we grow through the various stages of our existence-and also to those readers who need to know and those who want to know.

Disequilibrium, Polarization, and Crisis Model
Different international relations theorists have studied political change, but all fall short of sufficiently integrating human reactions, feelings, and responses to change in their theories. This book adds a social psychological component to the analysis of why nations, politically organized groups, or states enter into armed conflict. The Disequilibrium, Polarization, and Crisis Model is introduced, which draws from prospect theory, realism, liberalism, and constructivism. The theory considers how humans react and respond to change in their social, political, and economic environment. Three case studies, the U.S. Civil War, the Yugoslav Wars (1991-1995), and the First World War are applied to illustrate the model’s six process stages: status quo, change creating shifts that lead to disequilibrium, realization of loss, hanging on to the old status quo, emergence of a rigid system, and risky decisions leading to violence and war.
