Reproductive Ecology of Flowering Plants: A Manual

By: K.R. Shivanna,Rajesh Tandon

Successful reproduction is the basis not only for the stability of the species in their natural habitat but also for productivity of our crop plants. Therefore, knowledge on reproductive ecology of wild and cultivated plants is important for effective management of our dwindling biodiversity and for the sustainability and improvement of the yield in crop species. Conservation and management of our plant diversity is going to be a major challenge in the coming decades, particularly in the tropical countries which are rich in biodiversity. Reproductive failure is the main driver for pushing a large number of tropical species to vulnerable category. Available data on reproductive ecology on tropical species is very limited and there is an urgent need to initiate research on these lines. A major limitation for the beginners to take up research is the absence of simple concise work manuals that provide step-wise procedures to study all aspects of reproductive ecology. The Manual fills this void. Over 60 protocols described in the manual cover the whole spectrum of reproductive ecology - study sites and species, phenology, floral morphology and sexuality, pollen and pistil biology, pollination ecology, breeding system, seed biology, seed dispersal and seedling recruitment. Each chapter gives a concise conceptual account of the topic before describing the protocols. The Manual caters to researchers, teachers and students who are interested in any aspect of reproductive ecology of flowering plants -- botanists, ecologists, agri-horticulturists, foresters, entomologists, plant breeders and conservation biologists.

Combating Social Exclusion

Inter-sectionalities of Caste, Gender, Class and Regions

By: Rajesh K. Chander

This book attempts to make a holistic assessment and a humble intervention on the prevalent multiple social exclusion of dalits. The study is based in modern India, with a focus on Punjab in particular. It further substantiates that how caste and other exclusions are a lived reality. Challenging entrenched ideas, it uses multi-disciplinary perspectives/methodologies and lived experiences to comprehend dalits social exclusion, inter-sectionalities and social inequalities. It further interrogates linkages between key determinants, like, landlessness, educational attainment, asset ownership, gender discrimination, caste-based segregation and discrimination, employment, economic activity, development, state intervention policy, untouchability, political exclusion, diaspora effect, parallel sites of assertion, dalit consciousness, heterogeneities amongst dalits with social exclusion/inclusion. The salient feature of the book that it has covered all the regions of the state and 15 out of the total 39 scheduled castes. Drawing on Mixed Methods approach, multi-regional fieldwork and bottom-up perspective, this volume puts forward a perceptive analysis. It will be of great interest to researchers working in the fields of Social Exclusion, Sociology, Gender Studies, Dalit Studies, Caste Studies, Social Anthropology, Indian Politics, Economics, Public Administration, Public Policy, Social Work, Human Rights, Rural Development, Life Long Learning, Development Studies, Laws, and Police Administration.

Retire on your terms: A Guide to Holistic Retirement

By: Rajesh Minocha

Retire how you want, not how others want you to! Retire on your terms is for you if you have been struggling to maintain a work-life balance, or are in a job just to pay your bills, and not because the job is aligned with your passion. This book helps you achieve financial freedom and prepare to lead a happy and meaningful retirement life. This book provides a practical action strategy, and checklist and alerts you on mistakes to be avoided. All of us strive for financial security. Financial Independent Retire Early (FIRE) is a phrase commonly used. This book simplifies the jargon and provides practical solutions. Retire on your terms is more than a money management book on retirement planning. It guides you in achieving financial freedom and doing what you have always wanted to lead a meaningful and fulfilling retirement life. Retirement is successful, if we are healthy – physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually. The book starts with my story and how I achieved financial freedom at the age of 45 years. It is also about meticulous planning prior to retiring and following inherent passion post-retirement. If I could do it, anybody can!

Shaping Policy in India

Alliance, Advocacy, Activism

By: Rajesh Chakrabarti

How effective is the Indian polity in making laws and policies to address changing ground realities? How do its gears work? Which stakeholder groups are more successful in bringing about policy change, through what methods, and in what contexts? Seeking to answer these questions, Shaping Policy in India takes a close look at nine landmark Indian laws and legislative attempts to reveal the sociopolitical process of policy formulation in the world’s largest democracy. Offering in-depth accounts of the evolution of these nine major legislations, this book interrogates the suitability of existing political theories to explain the policy development process in an emerging economy like India. It covers recent events in the 1999–2014 period that have underlined the role of non-government players in law-making in India, as well as long-standing movements like right to information, right to education, and food security. Case studies have been used to assess the complexity against the relief of existing political theories, invariably developed in the West and to identify gaps in current political theory in understanding the nature of issue-based political movements, advocacy, and activism. The book then takes a few initial steps towards suggesting a paradigm based on complexity theory that may better serve to illuminate this critical part of the political process.

Mastering Orthopedic Techniques: Intra-Articular Fractures

By: Rajesh Malhotra

Intra-articular fractures occur on the surface of a bone that meets a joint with another bone. They are more serious than fractures that do not involve a joint space because they are associated with much greater incidence of long-term complications (MediVisuals Inc). Part of the Mastering Orthopedic Techniques series, this comprehensive manual is a complete guide to the surgical management of intra-articular fractures. Beginning with an introduction providing an overview of articular fractures, the following chapters provide a ‘how to’ style commentary, joint by joint and by fracture type. Each chapter provides an understanding of different injuries, practical classifications, challenges in diagnosis and the reasons why one surgical option may be more appropriate than another for a particular fracture type. Each surgical option is described in detail with drawings, clinical photos, surgical techniques, equipment needed, tricks and techniques for reduction and fixation, and an overview of postoperative management, complications and results. Key points Comprehensive guide to surgical management of intra-articular fractures Provides ‘how to’ style commentary by joint and fracture type Includes nearly 1200 full colour drawings and clinical photos Written by an internationally recognised editor and author team from Europe, the US and Asia

Lord from Heaven

By: Rajesh Jain

From the beginning of time, humanity has longed for the day when justice, peace, equality and compassion will envelop the world. Scripture and holy books of various religions predict a future leader who will unite religions, defeat evil, and establish the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Today, Jews long for their messiah Meshiack, Christians seek the return of Jesus Christ, Muslims await Imam Mahdi, Buddhists look for the Fifth Buddha Maitreya, Hindus seek the Tenth Avatar Kalki, and Confucian texts speak of a future True Man who will bring peace. But can one man actually fulfill all these religious expectations? Rajesh Jain, a physician by trade, relies on his intuitive experiences, scripture, and research to share a deep examination of various religions and their beliefs regarding the Second Coming, the prophecies of Nostradamus, technological deceptions by elite nations, enigmas of consciousness by Chris King, the American model of unsustainability by Chris Clugston, and the metaphysical concept of Pi by Patrick Mulcahy. Included are his explorations of the education system, the Catholic Church, the labor market, and taxes. Avatar shares a comprehensive examination of the Second Coming through intuitive experiences, scripture, and research.

Lichens to Biomonitor the Environment

By: Vertika Shukla,D.K. Upreti,Rajesh Bajpai

The book embodies the detailed account about unique symbionts i.e. LICHENS in ecosystem monitoring. The first chapter deals with unique characteristics features of lichens which facilitate their survival in extreme climates and makes them an ideal organism for ecosystem monitoring. Biosynthesis of secondary metabolites are known to protect lichens against increasing environmental stresses therefore second chapter provides insight into various chromatographic and modern spectroscopic techniques involved in separation and characterization of lichen substances. The third chapter elaborates the criteria for selection of biomonitoring species and characters of host plant that influences lichen diversity and details about different lichen species utilized for biomonitoring. One can retrieve preliminary information about the air quality based on the lichen community structure and distribution of bioindicator species as lichen communities/indicator species provides valuable information about the natural/anthropogenic induced changes in the microclimate and land-use changes due to human activity. Therefore, for identification of species, a key to genera and species provides concise information to identify the lichen species based on their morphological and anatomical characters and chemicals present. Keys provided in Chapter 4 will help the beginners to identify some common lichen species based on the distribution in different climatic zones of India. The section also provides comprehensive information about the bioindicator communities and bioindicator species from India. Chapter 5 provides the details of factors affecting the ecosystem (natural as well as anthropogenic disturbances) and role of lichens in ecosystem monitoring in India has been discussed in detail. Chapter 6 discusses the need and utility of indicator species especially lichen biomonitoring data in sustainable forest management and conservation. The content about lichens in biomonitoring will be a valuable resource for researchers from different fields and will provide an essential reference for people interested in lichens and its role in ecosystem monitoring. The book will also hopefully popularize lichenological studies in India and will generate more active participation of lichen biomonitoring studies in management and conservation of natural resources in India.
