In 1997, when India celebrated 50 years of its Independence, TERI's study Growth with Resource Enhancement of Environment and Nature (GREEN) India 2047 assessed whether the country was moving on an environmentally sustainable path. The sequel to the study, Directions Innovations and Strategies for Harnessing Action (DISHA) for sustainable development, released in 2001, projected environmental and resource implications for the country by 2047 under two scenarios, that is, continuing in a business-as-usual mode and adopting a more sustainable development trajectory. The present study picks up the thread from 1997, examining environmental trends in the last decade, isolating underlying priority issues and identifying strategies that are needed to prevent or ameliorate environmental damage. The mandate of the present study, thus, is to go beyond reporting the state of India's environment. Through an evaluation of the major factors that are responsible for the present state and the characteristics of resulting impacts, the study provides an agenda for action.
Phytochemicals and derivatives have become promising alternatives to increase treatment potential in cancer patients with minimal side effects. Drug-delivery Systems of Phytochemicals as Therapeutic Strategies in Cancer Therapy elucidates the importance of various phytochemicals in cancer therapy and explains various routes/methods to deliver phytochemicals for overcoming the problems associated with delivery system in cancer treatment. Several nanotechnological methods are followed to enhance drug solubility, sustainability, bioavailability and gastrointestinal permeability of these phytochemicals. The advanced field of drug-delivery systems explains that combination therapy for cancer treatment has important benefits over mono-delivery therapeutics. Natural compounds, because of their biobased origin, have drawn higher attention than synthetic drugs. Synthesis of nano-phytomedicines has impacted the bioavailability of phytochemicals. Novel formulations have been synthesized loaded with phytochemicals and have revealed extraordinary results in treatment of various cancers. Current understanding of the relevant information presented in Drug-delivery systems of phytochemicals as therapeutic strategies in cancer therapy fulfils the requirements of oncologists, molecular biologists, pharmacologist and related researchers, who want to work in the areas of drug development targeting phytochemicals for cancer therapy - Explains the significance of phytochemicals in cancer therapy, along with their pharmacologic action - Elucidates the importance of various phytochemicals in cancer therapy - Explains the emerging need of drug-delivery system for plant metabolites - Deciphers the various drug-delivery systems for phytomedicines involved in cancer treatments - Describes the crucial role of nanotechnology in the development of drug-delivery systems for anticancer phytochemicals - Explores the challenges associated with developing drug-delivery systems for phytochemicals to cure cancer

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. Winner of the 2022 Joseph W. Elder Prize in the Indian Social Sciences Merchants of Virtue explores the question of what it meant to be Hindu in precolonial South Asia. Divya Cherian presents a fine-grained study of everyday life and local politics in the kingdom of Marwar in eighteenth-century western India to uncover how merchants enforced their caste ideals of vegetarianism and bodily austerity as universal markers of Hindu identity. Using legal strategies and alliances with elites, these merchants successfully remade the category of “Hindu,” setting it in contrast to “Untouchable” in a process that reconfigured Hinduism in caste terms. In a history pertinent to understanding India today, Cherian establishes the centrality of caste to the early-modern Hindu self and to its imagination of inadmissible others.

Including chapters from scholars across cultures and settings – including Greece, Canada, Vienna, South Africa, India, and the United States – this book provides an invaluable survey of the issues attending cross-cultural social justice research today. Engaging issues confronted by all cross-cultural researchers this book will be invaluable to those working across the social sciences as well as professionals in criminal justice and social work.
This book explores the domain of reliability engineering in the context of machine tools. Failures of machine tools not only jeopardize users' ability to meet their due date commitments but also lead to poor quality of products, slower production, down time losses etc. Poor reliability and improper maintenance of a machine tool greatly increases the life cycle cost to the user. Thus, the application area of the present book, i.e. machine tools, will be equally appealing to machine tool designers, production engineers and maintenance managers. The book will serve as a consolidated volume on various dimensions of machine tool reliability and its implications from manufacturers and users point of view. From the manufacturers' point of view, it discusses various approaches for reliability and maintenance based design of machine tools. In specific, it discusses simultaneous selection of optimal reliability configuration and maintenance schedules, maintenance optimization under various maintenance scenarios and cost based FMEA. From the users' point of view, it explores the role of machine tool reliability in shop floor level decision- making. In specific, it shows how to model the interactions of machine tool reliability with production scheduling, maintenance scheduling and process quality control.

Focussing on patterns of intergenerational stability, this book traces the unequal structures of opportunity in India. The author addresses questions and approaches towards social mobility (or the lack thereof) through interactions between social class, caste, and gender while adopting a rural–urban perspective, capturing changes over time, and the implications of social mobility on a national scale. This book plugs in crucial gaps in the research on social mobility, which has been marked by the lack of precision regarding the extent of mobility in contemporary India. Using a broad lens of both caste and class, this up-to-date statistical analysis, which uses national-level datasets and advanced quantitative methods, enriches the sociological as well as the anthropological literature, while also locating India within the larger context of social mobility research in the industrialized and industrializing world.
