In recent years, India-China relations have maintained a good momentum in their development, with co-operation being the key factor. The two sides have sought to continue raising the level of mutual political trust and promote the in-depth development of bilateral co-operation. The current situation suggests that co-operation between the two countries has mainly focussed on economic areas of interest, although pragmatic co-operation has also been gradually promoted in the areas of politics, boundary negotiation and non-traditional security. The major source of cultural and religious inspiration for China historically, China's attention in modern times has been preoccupied with the West and Japan, often because the latter forced themselves onto Chinese territory and consciousness. This has not changed much in China's reform era and catching up with the developed economies of the West and Japan has been a major factor motivating China's continuing quest for modernity and identity. Until recently, this Chinese outlook toward Japan and the West contrasted with the preoccupation with China shown by some Indian thinkers. As the book addresses this crucial issue quite deftly, it is hoped that it would prove to be a source of great information for the reader.

No one can avoid gray hair and wrinkles, but you can prevent your brain from aging. This book is about the discovery that the human brain has its own unique way of healing, and that when it is understood, many brain problems thought to be incurable or irreversible can be improved or even cured. In addition the book will give you the information you need in order to keep your brain functioning at its peak throughout your mature years. Like any other part of the body your brain needs exercise and a balanced diet to maintain its health. Adequate sleep, taking short breaks during work, maintaining an active attitude toward your social life, and developing a mental attitude of curiosity will also help in keeping the aging brain sharp and young. Memory is central to the entire function of the brain and the book gives detail information on how not only to stop decline of memory in old age but even to improve it. There is an old adage that age makes sage. Vanprastha, the third stage of life is the ancient Indian way of becoming a sage as we age. Moreover, Vanprastha is not an exile to the forest but a mental attitude. The chapter Age Makes Sage explains in some detail what this attitude of a Vanprasthi should be and how he ought to conduct himself in this phase of life. Mind and body are integral to each other. The Western view of mind is mechanical while Indian view treats it as a part of the wholeness which comprises of the body, mind and spirit. Yoga plays a prominent part in keeping the mind alert, calm and serene. The book elucidates the point in a lucid manner .

Private sector agricultural extension has expanded rapidly in many developing countries in the wake of drastic funding cuts made to public extension systems in the 1980s and 1990s. Motivated by the increase in sales or contract farming revenues that extension can generate, private providers include seed and input companies, distributors and dealers, service providers, food processors and retailers, and mobile phone companies. Mixed public-private systems are now becoming common. How well can the private sector fill the gap left by dysfunctional public systems? Knowledge Driven Development: Private Extension and Global Lessons provides a critical assessment of the effectiveness of private extension systems in developing countries.
This book discusses various open issues in software engineering, such as the efficiency of automated testing techniques, predictions for cost estimation, data processing, and automatic code generation. Many traditional techniques are available for addressing these problems. But, with the rapid changes in software development, they often prove to be outdated or incapable of handling the software’s complexity. Hence, many previously used methods are proving insufficient to solve the problems now arising in software development. The book highlights a number of unique problems and effective solutions that reflect the state-of-the-art in software engineering. Deep learning is the latest computing technique, and is now gaining popularity in various fields of software engineering. This book explores new trends and experiments that have yielded promising solutions to current challenges in software engineering. As such, it offers a valuable reference guide for a broad audience including systems analysts, software engineers, researchers, graduate students and professors engaged in teaching software engineering.
