There was a time when children used to go to their grandpa and grandma often. In a playful way, they would learn and absorb the beautiful values of life. But today, when everyone is becoming busier, at such a time, it is only the stories which can bring us closer to the future generation. Those moments at night before sleeping, when we and our little ones enjoy the stories together, are invaluable. In these moments, unknowingly, the love between us becomes stronger, and the children learn the first lesson of their lives—the value of beautiful relationships. The attempt has been to see each story through the eyes of a child, and to listen to each story with the ears of a child, and understand it with a child's heart. The effort has been that if there is any word which pricks their innocent minds, then that should not reach them through the medium of these stories. The effort here has been that each story has a positive end, from which the dreams of the children get a positive beginning.

This book introduces a sociological understanding of the emergence of modernity in India and its ramifications on society, economy, and polity. It outlines the main features and context of modernity, as described in classical and later texts of modernity. The essays examine the transformation of Indian society as a consequence of the British colonial encounter resulting in social, economic, and political interventions. It also delineates the Indian context by defining the term community, and its close association with caste and religion, and subsequently examines the challenges in building a pan-Indian or national consciousness with a sense of ‘we-ness’ or common identity. Most importantly, the book also studies the politics of government formation after independence, and the role of dominant castes and classes in gaining power at the Centre. The book concludes with an outline of the definitions and historical practices of social exclusion in India, their contemporary configurations, the image of a socially, economically, and politically exclusive Indian modernity that poses challenges to the Indian state and civil society on account of the exclusion of multiple groups. This book would be useful to the students, researchers and teachers of sociology, women and gender studies, history, economics, political science, and other interdisciplinary courses in social sciences. The book will also be valuable reading for those interested in South Asian studies, especially post-colonial contemporary Indian society.

This is a fascinating tale of three girls who encountered amazing adventures as young teenagers, shared beautiful moments, and had a great sense of camaraderie. But as they embark on a journey of life, they encounter a chain of events that change their lives for the better or worse. It is a tale of the rewards , the medley of emotions they experience, the constraints they face, and the perils of breaking free from the past that finally shape their passage to independence. Both of you are at the cusp of an exciting stage. Things are not so rosy for me. I am depressed by this dull and weary life was what a young girl, Anne, had told her smart city-bred friends. Anne did not complain and did not feel sorry for herself. She danced when the sun shone, lay low in winter, collected colorful fall leaves in autumn, enjoyed her walk in the spring. She enjoyed the seasons of her life. Her friends Meena and Sunita chose to liberate themselves from the marriage to seek adventure, freedom, and independence, but were they jeopardizing everything they had? The journey of life of these three girls is filled with a magical mosaic of love ,friendship ,betrayal, despair, and hope. We are shown how, when encountering struggle and dealing with our inner conflicts, we learn important lessons that are sometimes bitter and sometimes sweet.
