It Was An Assignment That Was At Once Challenging And Intimidating. I Was Going To Be Setting Foot On Enemy Territory. Amit Baruah Was One Of Only Two Indian Journalists Allowed To Be Based In Islamabad During Three Tumultuous Years Of Pakistan S History. The Author Recounts With Some Amusement His Family S Experience Of Life In Islamabad Society Between April 1997 And June 2000 All Of It Conducted Under The Suspicious Gaze Of Pakistani Intelligence Agents Who Shadow Baruah, His Wife And Daughters Everywhere, Including Into Friends Living Rooms. He Records His Frustration At Being Disallowed From Reporting Freely On The Ground Many Events That Defined Indo-Pak Relations, Even As Death Or Kidnapping Forever Stalks Him. Three Incidents Haunt Baruah The Most: Not Being Cleared To Attend The Funeral, In 1998, Of John Joseph, The Bishop Of Faisalabad Who Committed Suicide In Protest Against Pakistan S Blasphemy Laws; Being Forbidden To View The Wreckage Of An Indian Air Force Plane Shot Down During The Kargil Conflict Of 1999; And Being Prevented From Entering Afghanistan From Pakistan To Report On The Kandahar Hijacking Later That Year. And Yet, Says Baruah, Despite All The Personal And Professional Difficulties He Faced In Pakistan, His Stint In Islamabad And His Exchanges With So Many Friends He Cannot Name Proved To Be The Most Exciting And Enriching In His Career. While Admitting The Difficult Nature Of His Job As A Foreign Correspondent In A Hostile Nation, Baruah Recalls The Joys Of Meeting Generous, Like-Minded People In A Country Whose Regimented Stance On India And Its Press Is Less Than Friendly.
Migration of the South Asian peoples to Australia has resulted in a continually growing and flourishing diaspora, one of the most prosperous communities, with an ever–increasing role and responsibility in all areas of society. One of the challenges in writing about the South Asian diaspora in Australia is the nature of the beast: the multifarious migration and entry points into Australia range from colonial indentured workers to political asylum seekers to transnational marriages to students and high–end professionals. How did their journeys and experiences generate bridges that have influenced the historical, cultural, social and academic perceptions of the ever–changing continents? It is hoped that this critical anthology will help present a dynamic community in transit, and showcase the achievements of the South Asian diaspora during the last decade, which have not only made a significant impact on Australia’s multiculutural landscape but also furthered South Asian–Australian engagement.
Parkinsonism is a clinical syndrome characterised by tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity, and postural instability. Parkinsonism shares symptoms found in Parkinson's Disease, from which it is named; but parkinsonism is a symptom complex, and differs from Parkinson's disease which is a progressive neurodegenerative illness. This book is a guide to Parkinsonism for practising neurologists. Beginning with an overview of the condition, the next chapters discuss the differences between Parkinsonism and Parkinson’s Disease. The following sections cover the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders associated with Parkinsonism and both early and advanced Parkinson’s Disease. A complete chapter is dedicated to the use of Botulinum Toxin (Botox) in the management of Parkinsonism. Each chapter is supplemented by clinical cases to assist understanding of the complex condition. Edited by recognised experts in the field, the book is further enhanced by clinical photographs and illustrations. Key points Guide to Parkinsonism detailing differences between the condition and Parkinson’s Disease Covers diagnosis and treatment of disorders associated with both conditions Includes chapter on use of Botulinum Toxin (Botox) in the management of Parkinsonism Each chapter features clinical cases to assist understanding
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. Climate is changing across our planet, largely, as a result of human activities. The indicators of climate change include physical responses such as changes in the surface temperature, atmospheric water vapour, severe climatic events, melting of glaciers, and a rise in sea level. Mountain ecosystems being exceptionally fragile are prone to both natural and anthropogenic drivers of change, which ranges from volcanic and seismic events and flooding to global climate change and of vegetation and soils, resulting from inappropriate agricultural and forestry practices and extractive industries. Environmental issues directly affect agricultural productivity, famine and pandemics, health, economy, and ecology. In this light, environmental protection, the practice of protecting the environment on individual, community, organizational, or governmental level, assumes a significant role. This book provides a holistic coverage of the basics of climate change, changes in biodiversity, phytosociological changes, and thus proposes a comprehensive set of solutions to resolve various issues related to environment and climate change. This book would be beneficial for researchers, policy makers, academicians, environmentalists, and university students.
