Strategic Human Resource Management in Higher Education

Roadmap for Indian Institutions

By: Jai Mohan Pandit,Bino Paul

This book explores the practices and policies of human resource management (HRM) in higher education institutions (HEI), while also analyzing the governance and structural challenges. It explains the assessment of university as an organization, outlining the distinction between universities and firms from an HRM point of view by analysing various objectives, parameters and outcomes. The book broadly probes the relevance of HRM systems in HEIs in India and their potential impact. It also examines whether existing HRM practices and policies in HEIs in India drive motivation and enable employees to perform their functions to achieve the highest possible levels of excellence. It explores whether the enhanced motivation of employees consistently impacts students, their placements, progress to higher education, and quality teaching and research output. To strengthen the research output, to better understand the functioning of HRM practices in foreign HEIs and for comparative reasons, the book also studies HEIs in the United States against a diverse set of HEIs in India. It concludes by highlighting the impact of India’s National Education Policy 2020 and its scope to transform and professionalise the higher education system in the country. The book is indispensable for researchers in education management and policy studies and those in governing positions in higher education institutions. It is also a valuable resource for regulatory and government bodies, and policy-formulating think tanks in South Asia which have a similar education system as India.

Samudra Manthan

Sino-Indian Rivalry in the Indo-Pacific

By: C. Raja Mohan

Rising China and emerging India are becoming major maritime powers. As they build large navies to secure their growing interests, both nations are roiling the waters of the Indo-Pacific—the vast littoral stretching from Africa to Australasia. Invoking a tale from Hindu mythology— Samudra Manthan or "to churn the ocean"—C. Raja Mohan tells the story of a Sino-Indian rivalry spilling over from the Great Himalayas into the Indian and Pacific Oceans. He examines the prospects of mitigating the tensions and constructing a stable Indo-Pacific order. America, the dominant power in the area, is being drawn into the unfolding Sino-Indian competition. Despite the huge differences in the current naval capabilities of China, India, and the United States, Mohan argues that the three countries are locked in a triangular struggle destined to mold the future Indo-Pacific.

Combinatorics of Symmetric Designs

By: Yury J. Ionin,Mohan S. Shrikhande

The aim of this book is to provide a unified exposition of the theory of symmetric designs with emphasis on recent developments. The authors cover the combinatorial aspects of the theory giving particular attention to the construction of symmetric designs and related objects. The last five chapters of the book are devoted to balanced generalized weighing matrices, decomposable symmetric designs, subdesigns of symmetric designs, non-embeddable quasi-residual designs, and Ryser designs. Most results in these chapters have never previously appeared in book form. The book concludes with a comprehensive bibliography of over 400 entries. Researchers in all areas of combinatorial designs, including coding theory and finite geometries, will find much of interest here. Detailed proofs and a large number of exercises make this book suitable as a text for an advanced course in combinatorial designs.

More tales from Rumble Belly

Fantasies of a Middle Class Mind

By: AV Ram Mohan

Critical Acclaim for 'A Plateful of French Fries' True to its title, A Plateful of French Fries, a collection of engrossing stories both short and long, is tempting and delicious. With a keen eye, dry humour and measured writing style, the stories bring to life the characters and situations that both town and city-bred English readers in India can easily recognise and identify with. A treat served up hot and crisp for story lovers. - Tara Murali, an architect with keen reading interests. Ram Mohan’s stories offer a range of life experiences, from chance encounters in local trains to the dark underbelly of commercial espionage in the Big Apple, to extra-terrestrial visits and mystical time travel. Written in a simple, approachable manner, reading his work is a bit like having a free-wheeling conversation with a good friend over a drink on a particularly leisurely evening, with all time-bound routine and daily demands having been set aside. - Ranjitha Ashok, Author and columnist, Chennai ‘It is an eclectic collection of 'long' short stories and novellas. Almost all these stories exude positivity, intelligent hard-working individuals beat adverse odds with helpful patrons intervening at crucial junctures. Most importantly, these stories are all eminently easy reads and as in real life, the endings are often left unsaid, leaving the readers to speculate about.’ - T R Rajan, IIMA 1968 and professional management consultant thereafter

Nair – Told & Untold

By: Mohan Nair

Nair ? Told & Untold is a collection of short stories that elevate the mundane happenings in everyday life. The protagonist, Mr. Nair, a typical Malayalee, takes on many avatars, some applaudable and others cringe-worthy. But in all these stories, he gains the reader’s sympathy as he tries to navi-gate the nooks and crannies of life’s journey. The author has a keen understanding of human na-ture. In simple prose, he captures snapshots of life which include an observant Mr. Nair who witnesses catastrophe unfold at the village tea shop, a frustrated Mr. Nair who gives driving les-sons to an impossible student, a possessive Mr. Nair who tries to protect his wife from the vulgar attentions of uncivilised men using public transport, an arrogant Mr. Nair who underestimates the shrewdness of his co-passenger and a submissive Mr. Nair who does his best to please his dog-fearing wife by promising to get rid of the stray dog menace in their colony. A perfect blend between satire and farce, this collection will endear you to its likeable characters. Above all, the stories will leave you chuckling no matter how serious you are.

The Reluctant MD

A Gynaecologist’s Journey

By: Dr Usha Mohan

Becoming a doctor was never her dream, but a doctor she did become. Welcome to the world of an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist whose journey as a doctor took her to places as varied as Africa, Jamaica, Papua New Guinea and Brunei, through experiences not many doctors would have or even want to have, ending her successful career as an active practitioner with the latest trend in the field of medicine, e-consulting. The Reluctant MD: A Gynaecologist’s Journey provides an insight into the tension-packed life of a doctor who has to think on her toes to bring smiles on her patients’ faces. Behind every baby delivered, every case solved is the story of her struggle to get everything right, a story a patient never gets to hear. And, of course, the amazing highs of impacting someone’s life directly, and the deep lows when patients do poorly. In short, every day is a new day with unanticipated challenges for her. The account leads us through the various incidents she encountered to become the successful doctor she eventually became. At once hilarious, horrifying and heart-breaking, this medical memoir leaves you wondering about many things – the quest for happiness, the pursuit of dreams, the meaning of success, but above all, the need to do one’s best, regardless.

Banting, Bose and Beyond

Inspiring Stories of How Insulin Changed Lives in India

By: Dr. V. Mohan

Type 1 diabetes is a severe insulin-dependent form of diabetes, which most commonly affects children, but may occur at any age. Until 1921, when the epoch-making discovery of insulin was made by Dr Fredrick Banting and colleagues at the University of Toronto, Canada, children with type 1 diabetes could only live for a few months. The discovery of insulin in 1921, (considered one of the greatest miracles of modern medicine) changed the lives of those with type 1 diabetes, forever. However, very little is known about what happened in India around the time of the discovery of insulin. Dr J.P. Bose of Calcutta was one of the first doctors to document the use of insulin in India. His contributions which have been largely forgotten have been resurrected through this book. There are also very few reports of the lives of those with type 1 diabetes in India. This book chronicles for the first time, the first recipients of insulin in India and also those who lived for several decades, some even for sixty or seventy years, with type 1 diabetes. Hence, the title of this book, Banting, Bose and Beyond is extremely appropriate. The book would be of great interest not only to those with diabetes and their families but also to students, medical professionals and indeed everyone. The true stories of the heroes with type 1 diabetes described in this book, will be an inspiration to anyone with any chronic disease. Written in Dr V. Mohan’s usual sagacious and yet gripping style, it is a thriller that is difficult to put down. Dr Mohan is a great storyteller and this book is yet another jewel in his literary crown.

Communicating Social Change

Structure, Culture, and Agency

By: Mohan J. Dutta

Communicating Social Change: Structure, Culture, and Agency explores the use of communication to transform global, national, and local structures of power that create and sustain oppressive conditions. Author Mohan J. Dutta describes the social challenges that exist in current globalization politics, and examines the communicative processes, strategies, and tactics through which social change interventions are constituted in response to the challenges. Using empirical evidence and case studies, he documents the ways through which those in power create conditions at the margins, and he provides a theoretical base for discussing the ways in which these positions of power are resisted through communication processes, strategies, and tactics. The interplay of power and control with resistance is woven through each of the chapters in the book. This exceptional volume highlights the points of intersection between the theory and praxis of social change communication, creating theoretical entry points for the praxis of social change. It is intended for communication scholars and students studying activism, social movements, and communication for social change, and it will also resonate in such disciplines such as development, sociology, and social work, with those who are studying social transformations.

Male Sterility in Higher Plants

Male Sterility in Higher Plants

By: Mohan L.H. Kaul

. . . . . . Nature has something more in view than that its own proper males should fecundate each blossom. " Andrew Knight Philosophical Transactions, 1799 Sterility implicating the male sex solely presents a paradoxical situation in which universality and uniqueness are harmoniously blended. It maintains a built-in outbreeding system but is not an isolating mechanism, as male steriles, the "self-emasculated" plants, outcross with their male fertile sibs normally. Both genes (nuclear and cytoplasmic) and environment, individually as well as conjointly, induce male sterility, the former being genetic and the latter nongenetic. Genetic male sterility is controlled either exclusively by nuclear genes (ms) or by the complementary action of nuclear (lr) and cytoplasmic (c) genes. The former is termed genic and the latter gene-cytoplasmic male sterility. Whereas genic male sterility exhibits Mendelian inheritance, gene-cytoplasmic male sterility is non-Mendelian, with specific transmissibility of the maternal cytoplasm type. Genetic male sterility is documented in 617 species and species crosses com prising 320 species, 162 genera and 43 families. Of these, genic male sterility occurs in 216 species and 17 species crosses and gene-cytoplasmic male sterility in 16 species and 271 species crosses. The Predominance of species exhibiting genic male sterility and of species crosses exhibiting gene-cytoplasmic male sterility is due to the fact that for the male sterility expression in the former, mutation of nuclear genes is required, but in the latter, mutations of both nuclear and cytoplasmic genes are necessary.

Elements of Artificial Neural Networks

By: Kishan Mehrotra,Chilukuri K. Mohan,Sanjay Ranka

Elements of Artificial Neural Networks provides a clearly organized general introduction, focusing on a broad range of algorithms, for students and others who want to use neural networks rather than simply study them. The authors, who have been developing and team teaching the material in a one-semester course over the past six years, describe most of the basic neural network models (with several detailed solved examples) and discuss the rationale and advantages of the models, as well as their limitations. The approach is practical and open-minded and requires very little mathematical or technical background. Written from a computer science and statistics point of view, the text stresses links to contiguous fields and can easily serve as a first course for students in economics and management. The opening chapter sets the stage, presenting the basic concepts in a clear and objective way and tackling important -- yet rarely addressed -- questions related to the use of neural networks in practical situations. Subsequent chapters on supervised learning (single layer and multilayer networks), unsupervised learning, and associative models are structured around classes of problems to which networks can be applied. Applications are discussed along with the algorithms. A separate chapter takes up optimization methods. The most frequently used algorithms, such as backpropagation, are introduced early on, right after perceptrons, so that these can form the basis for initiating course projects. Algorithms published as late as 1995 are also included. All of the algorithms are presented using block-structured pseudo-code, and exercises are provided throughout. Software implementing many commonly used neural network algorithms is available at the book's website. Transparency masters, including abbreviated text and figures for the entire book, are available for instructors using the text.
