Electric power systems are at the heart of modern society, powering homes, businesses, and industries around the globe. As such, a firm grasp of their fundamental principles is essential for anyone involved in the design, operation, or management of electrical infrastructure. Throughout this book, emphasis is placed not only on theoretical foundations but also on practical insights gleaned from real-world engineering practices. Case studies, examples, and illustrations are utilized to illustrate key concepts and demonstrate their relevance in solving real-world problems.
Unleash the Wellness Code for Women. (Rewiring of neurons: Mind and Body reprogramming) is an amazing story that focuses on the main health concerns and problems related to women. Women handle stress differently than men and are more prone to stress and anxiety. They have numerous factors for their internal stress generation. Their external stress list is also very long. By 6- a step powerful process, the complete health code is deciphered in simple ways and methodology which is easy to follow. By neural linguistic programming tools along with wellness practices, a healthy fit body and mindset can be achieved.

“Aap Akbhaar mein kaam karte ho, toh yeh batao, tel ka daam intna zayda kyo hai?” (you work for a paper, tell me why petrol/diesel price is so high), this question I have been asked more often than not. In fact, being a reporter covering oil ministry has not been easy. Even your family looks at you with accusation if the fuel prices go up. As days went by and I got more exposed to the working of this sector, I felt the need to pen down certain things which showcase what the sector is all about. For most economic reporters covering the Ministry of Finance is the ultimate. Well yes and no. If you have not tracked ministry of petroleum and natural gas you really don't know what economics is about, literally. Through this book I try to recount India's upstream journey. It is very important to know the role which KD Malaviya played, or what ONGC stands for, Why New Exploration Licensing Policy was a game changer, what an amazing player Cairn Energy was, what corporate war is, and finally how consistency in governance help. The book tells the story of India's upstream sector. Why producing your own oil and gas matters?
Present energy situation around the globe is unsustainable due to unequal distribution of natural resources as well as different environmental, geopolitical, and economical concerns. Rise in population with accelerated increase in industrial sector has led to rapid increase in the consumption of energy sources, which will make them extinct soon. To combat environmental pollution and mitigate the effects of greenhouse gases, it has become imperative that an alternative energy source is found which is sustainable and renewable. Biofuels is one such renewable, sustainable and affordable energy source that has the potential to replace conventional energy sources. Algal Biofuel: sustainable solution explores a wide spectrum of bioenergy sources, including their applications. It provides latest information in the field of bioenergy technologies and their future prospect including lipid content. It discusses governance of biofuel at global and national level and the potential of biofuel to meet the rising energy demand. The book focuses towards the strategies to ensure the availability of algal biomass, effective cultivation and harvesting techniques. The strategies to enhance the algal lipid synthesis and its conversion for biodiesel production have been also elaborated. Detailed Table of Contents: Foreword Preface 1.

Sustainability of environment is an emerging global issue at present. Unsustainable or deteriorating environment is a matter of concern as it has threatened the survival of living creatures. Recently, climate change has been matter of great concern at a global platform owing to imbalances in natural environment. Increasing population has increased the demand for energy, which has ultimately put pressure on natural resources and caused a paradigm shift from resource generation to exploitation. Emerging Energy Alternatives for Sustainable Environment aims to address the role of sustainable technologies in energy generation options for clean environment. It covers a wide spectrum of energy generation approaches, with an emphasis on five key topics: (i) renewable energy sources and recent advances, (ii) emerging green technologies for sustainable development, (iii) assessment of biomass for sustainable bioenergy production, (iv) solid waste management and its potential for energy generation, and (v) solar energy applications, storage system, and heat transfer. This book provides essential and comprehensive knowledge of green energy technologies with different aspects for engineers, technocrats and researchers working in the industry, universities, and research institutions. The book is also very useful for undergraduate and graduate students of science and engineering who are keen to know about the development of renewable energy products and their corresponding processes.
This book is a comprehensive guide to the assessment and management of high risk pregnancy. Divided into eleven sections, the text begins with discussion on antenatal care, nutrition, genetic screening and ultrasonography-guided interventions in pregnancy.
