Rajendra Shekhar, former CBI director and former DG police Rajasthan, has stringed together episodes that are astoundingly gripping. He has studied in two of the most prestigious educational power houses of the country, Mayo (schooling) and St. Stephen’s (college education). He has authored two books in English and one in Hindi; all of them having won acclaim. His rich professional experience (in state police and the CBI) is evidenced in his experiences during the 1965 Indo-Pak War and in his supervision of cases of special crime, anti-corruption and murder in the CBI. His skilled narration in Facebook posts and penned articles has drawn exceptional endorsements. The book is peppered with endearing characters that flit through the pages perpetrating well-meaning indiscretions from Mansukha to Masoom and of course Amma (author’s mother) who is naive enough to think that Eton is just a pile of bricks. Shekhar’s forte is character delineation. As such, the unique aspect of this book is that it is replete with delightful characters having a bearing on human interest. This touching tale of times gone by will strike a heart-warming chord with its readers, as they go along to discover the humane facet of a ‘uniformed service’, otherwise known for its severe approach.

India and the Clash of Civilizations

By: Rajendra Kumar Mishra

Somdutt and Chandrmukhi are upper-caste Hindus belonging to Indias affluent bourgeoisie. Like most Hindu secularists-leftists, they are moral snobs who attack Hindu fundamentalism not only because it will impede the modernization of their co-religionists but also to appease Muslims whose resistance to the reformation of their archaic traditions and personal laws mainly out of antipathy to Hindus, who advocate it, they secretly despise as asinine! Their indifference to the Muslims economic and educational backwardness further testifies to their contempt for their fundamentalism. Chandrmukhi holds sumptuous evening parties where her upper-class friends shed crocodile tears for the poor. Her husband, Vishnu, suspects Somdutt to be her lover. Distressed by his unrelenting jealousy the loving and virtuous wife accidentally succumbs to and becomes pregnant by an admirer, whose identity remains a matter of conjecture. She commits suicide from remorse. Vishnus uncle Jawaharlal, a wealthy lawyer, is a typical devotee of Gandhi who preaches Hindu-Muslim brotherhood despite thinking that most Indian Muslims, who voted for Pakistan but remained in India, despise his idol as a sanctimonious and wily Hindu politician who desperately tried but failed to prevent the formation of a sovereign Muslim State.

The year is 1970.

Grids of Change

Managing Power Games and Power Lines

By: Rajendra Prasad Singh

As chairman of PowerGrid, one of India's leading utility companies, R.P. Singh was on the inside track of Indian business, government and policy for 12 long years-years spent not just reshaping power networking in India but also raising the benchmark in corporate governance. It wasn't always easy. Conservative, anti-reform forces had to be contested, rivals fought off, political and other influences contained. This book tells the story of how it was done. R.P. Singh reveals the inside workings of Indiaâ€™s government-owned business sector, the saga of how a start-up with borrowed staff and facilities was built into a public-sector jewel and one of the leading power grid operators of the world. This is a fascinating business book: part memoir, part management manual, part survival guide.

India and Germany in a Turbulent World

Perceptions, Perspectives, Prospects

By: Rajendra K. Jain

India shares a multi-dimensional relationship with the Federal Republic of Germany. Germany is India's largest trading partner within the European Union, and is also a major source and destination of foreign direct investment, a significant donor, and an important source of technology. Drawing on English and German language source material, this book covers the evolution and expansion of India’s economic, political, defence, and scientific-technological ties with Germany from 1947 to the present day. It analyses mutual perceptions, highlights the elements of convergence and divergence, and discusses the challenges and prospects of this relationship in a world marked by geopolitical uncertainty.

Plant Ecology of Indian Himalaya

Plant Ecology of Indian Himalaya

By: Rajendra Mohan Panda

This book discusses plant invasions and environmental impacts on the Himalayas through a novel procedure, and helps to understand the influences of climate, physiography, soil, and disturbance on plant richness in mountain systems. Assessing invasion risks to mountain space under future climate change scenarios is highly significant for appropriate preparedness, and this book details analytical and modeling techniques to assess the conditions of mountain ecosystem and ecology to better inform our preparation for future environmental challenges. The book presents the state-of-the-art understanding of the species-environment relationships in a global biodiversity hotspot, relatively unexplored areas for the Himalayan life-form richness. The book provides not only the academic but also the professional community and policymakers a review and update on modeling applications for determining interactions of the plant species with the environment of a subtropical mountain ecosystem across a climatic gradient. Currently, there is no book in the market addressing the implementation and applications of modeling in the Himalayan plant and environment continuum, and most of the existing books cover the species richness pattern along the elevation gradient and basic ethnobotanical features of a mountain system. Since the book covers the applications of novel methods and modeling for ecological analysis of mountain ecosystems, it will also be significant for the professional market. Therefore, the book aims to fill the gap between scientists and professionals in the use of modeling strategies to monitor biodiversity in mountain systems for the formulation of conservation, adaptation, and mitigation principles.

Kunwar singh

By: RAJENDRA SANJAY & APPASWAMY

Kunwar Singh was seventy-five when he chose to fight the British. His story is part of the chain of events that surround the First War of Indian Independence. Even though he was on good terms with the British commissioner of Patna, Kunwar Singh was clear that his loyalties lay with the mutinying sepoys. He and his band of men caused enough disruption to have the British baying for his arrest. Sasaram, Rewa, Ramgarh, Atraulia – he seemed to be everywhere at the same time. And they never got him.
