Although the motion picture industry in India is one of the oldest and largest in the world—with literally thousands of productions released each year—films from that country have not been as well received as those from other countries. Known for their impressive musical numbers, melodramatic plots, and nationally beloved stars, Indian films have long been ignored by the West but are now at the forefront of cinema studies. With the prolific number of films available, it can be difficult to know what to watch. In 100 Essential Indian Films, Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Datta identify and discuss significant works produced since the 1930s. Examining the output of different regional film industries throughout India, this volume offers a balance of box-office blockbusters, critical successes, and less-recognized cult classics. From early films by Satyajit Ray to contemporary classics such as Salaam Bombay and Lagaan, each entry includes comprehensive details about the film and situates the work in the context and history of the Indian canon.In addition to these notable productions, this book also examines key film directors and the work of major film stars in the industry. While many studies of Indian films focus on a single language’s contributions, this encyclopedia offers a comprehensive guide to productions from across the country in various languages, including Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Malayalam, Assamese, Punjabi, Marathi, and English. 100 Essential Indian Films is an engaging volume that will appeal to both cinema scholars and those looking for an introduction to a vital component of world cinema.

Any artistic creation, be it a painting or sculpture, initiates a reaction within us, invoking within us a desire to analyse or evaluate it. The criticism of art definitely has its presence. But the question is—in what form and of what relevance is it? Art criticism is exclusively presented in the written form—it does not consist of descriptions of pictures, interpretations, or re-creations; but of something new and autonomous, related to the piece of art in some way. Criticism always gives us novel ideas for modern art, which in turn, enriches the Indian heritage. Art has been part of our life since ancient times. Traditionally, Indian art writing was mainly composed of commentaries on courtly art conventions and on the poetic texts that inspired paintings and sculptures. Since the 20th century, there has been a breakdown of established conceptions of meaning in the all streams of arts and several rapid changes in artistic style. This book will help readers understand the journey of modern art criticism since Indian independence. It formulates as precisely as possible, the basic principles and norms that will enrich artistically sensitive laymen and critics alike.
I believe every soul is born with the birthright to be happy, healthy, and holy. I lost this belief system when my mother abruptly changed mental states and began choking me on a regular basis. Spending much of my life with brain damage, PTSD, and a weak immune system, I believe my suffering was for a higher purpose. I spent the first ten years of my adult life as a Broadway performer where I utilized tap dance and theater to convey stories and address my inner pain. As a child, I took an oath never to show my authentic self. This book releases the shame held by so many of my ancestors. I didn't grow up eating vegan food, listening to chants, or communicating with my biological tribe on spiritual issues. I grew up like many of you""in generational abusive patterns where yelling was common and issues were slipped under the table. The first thing I learned from my teacher, Yogi Bhajan, is that there is a way through every block. In this book, you will discover the journey behind healing oneself to a new mind, new body, and new life!

This book ‘Tumours of Larynx’ is a work I have done during my post graduation study. It has helped me to learn from the patients as I listened carefully and patiently. What they complain is a very important factor to be considered when making a diagnosis. This disease incapacitates the patient for the whole life. The larynx protects the airway and if one cannot breathe one cannot survive, and if one has difficulty breathing, then each moment becomes unbearable. This disease which may be inferred by patient’s history and diagnosed on simple clinical examination by laryngoscopy should be aware to medical students of every field. No expensive battery of tests is required to confirm the diagnosis. Anatomy and physiology of larynx has been added in lucid detail so that its understanding becomes easier, and the book has been profusely illustrated with color diagrams, working methods, reports, charts and tables.
