This book is a spin-off of a series of articles, many of which have appeared in newspapers. Taking famous pairs of Indian Cricket (e.g. Gavaskar and Vishwanath, Bedi and Prasanna, Ashok Mankad and Surinder Amarnath), it sets off one career against another, balancing their test performance against their domestic record but never pronouncing a verdict on which career was better. Mukherjee s book is marked by impeccable research and sharp, critical observation.
This book provides a new perspective on modeling cyber-physical systems (CPS), using a data-driven approach. The authors cover the use of state-of-the-art machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms for modeling various aspect of the CPS. This book provides insight on how a data-driven modeling approach can be utilized to take advantage of the relation between the cyber and the physical domain of the CPS to aid the first-principle approach in capturing the stochastic phenomena affecting the CPS. The authors provide practical use cases of the data-driven modeling approach for securing the CPS, presenting novel attack models, building and maintaining the digital twin of the physical system. The book also presents novel, data-driven algorithms to handle non- Euclidean data. In summary, this book presents a novel perspective for modeling the CPS.

This book explores fluvial processes and their consequences on river dynamics in India. It discusses the integration of geomorphic, hydrologic, and socio-economic data with various policies and decisions regarding sustainable river basin management. The volume looks at the origin and development of streams, chronology of fluvial geomorphology, fluvial system concept, process–form interaction, river dynamics, channel migration, flow regime, channel types, and hydraulic and morphometric parameters; and explains how changing hydro-geomorphological dynamics have influenced land use patterns, nature of fluids, behaviour of floods, etc. It examines channel migration vulnerability and bank erosion hazard vulnerability of the Torsa River in the eastern region of India as a case study using channel migration zone and Bank Erosion Hazard Index models. The book presents a new research framework based on field surveys, scientific investigations, and analytical techniques and methods to interpret key geoinformatics data. With its extensive illustrations, this book will be useful to students, teachers, and researchers of geography, earth sciences, environmental geology, and environment and disaster management. It will also interest geographers, civil engineers, hydrologists, geomorphologists, planners, and other individuals and organizations working on fluvial processes and riverbank erosion problems globally.
This volume brings together various research articles exploring different aspects of fluvial geomorphology and its role in floodplain management. It considers various geomorphic, quantitative and statistical techniques and methods for addressing fluvial morphodynamics, and details quantitative analysis of morphodynamic variables of river basins. The book also highlights the application of fluvial morphology in the management of land and water resources, as well as human resources of the riverine environment. It will be of interest to researchers and academicians, as well as planners and policy makers for ensuing river basin management and development.
The book is about research studies. Research studies has been a developing body of knowledge requiring research practitioners and research professionals to expand the horizons of research science. The author has considered the research studies as a discipline and used the term "Researchology" as a terminology for research studies as a discipline with its structure, process and behavioural aspects. This is probably the first attempt in academic world to view research studies as a discipline. This endeavour is a revealing journey to explore, systematize and formalize research studies as a discipline covering almost all aspects of research science and art of systematic research investigations.

My Journey from an Asian British to British Asian covers Sujit Bhattacharjee’s life, from his early years in India to one of the first generation of post-war Indian immigrants living in the UK over the last 50 years. Over the course of his time in the UK, Sujit has witnessed a drastic change in its nature and composition. Upon arrival, Britain was a predominantly Anglo-Saxon Christian society, but has been transformed into the diverse, open-minded and multiculturally enriched nation we live in today. Sujit has also noticed a shift in his own cultural identities since becoming resident in Britain. He began subscribing to the view that one’s identities could be multiple and situational; both British and Asian. Sujit’s story was originally written for his own children and grandchildren, who were keen to know how and why he came to live in the UK, and how it helped him become the man he is today. However, it will also be of interest to second and third generation readers of Indian descent who are keen to learn more of their own heritage, as well as to the general British public as it dwells on the dilemma of a hybrid immigrant in this country.
The effort in this book is to place before the readers certain aspects of the English literature produced by Michael Madhusudan Datta. Notwithstanding Michael being a major writer in Bengali literature, there are certain qualities in his English literature which merit some attention. This book attempts to highlight these qualities. There is a critical biography in which the English literature of Michael is given more attention. There is a consideration of his sonnets in English. The historical and the Romantic sensibilities have been discussed in some detail. The discussion of the historical sensibility is largely based on the works of Michael concerning certain events and periods in the history of medieval India and Europe. The Romantic sensibility of Michael is largely English but the setting and the themes are Indian. This book also contains a chapter on the influence of Michael’s Christian sensibility on the nature of his creativity.
