More and More about Less and Less

By: Suresh Subrahmanyan

This is Suresh Subrahmanyan's fourth volume of collected pieces dwelling on a wide variety of subjects. The topics may vary from politics, international affairs, sports, music and plenty of autobiographical reminiscences. The underlying theme and tone, however, will be unfailingly humorous and satirical displaying a deep and abiding love for the English language.

A brush with Mr. Naipaul

(and other pieces)

By: Suresh Subrahmanyan

Suresh Subrahmanyan draws freely from his life experiences to present this compendium of acutely observed columns. His métier, humour and satire, and his abiding love for the English language, resonate on every page. He delves nostalgically into his childhood, ruminating on, among other things, boarding school escapades and a wide spectrum of music that saturates his life. He paints a vivid portrait of India’s contrariness with a light brush, warts and all. Politics, sport, the arts, current affairs and selective autobiography – they are all grist to the author’s mill. As he himself says, ‘I write for fun. If the reader is amused, it’s a bonus’. Suresh Subrahmanyan is refreshingly different from others of his ilk. He is known for his eclectic tastes, partial to wit and satire, a cricket tragic (in Aussie parlance) and an aficionado of music of varied genres. Small wonder that he has been a regular columnist in leading newspapers. His writings, covering a wide range of subjects, come as a breath of fresh air. This delightfully humorous collection of his choicest columns, impeccably written, will lift the reader’s spirits. N. Murali Chairman, Kasturi and Sons Ltd (Holding company of The Hindu Group) and President, The Music Academy

Writer's Block

(and other musings)

By: Suresh Subrahmanyan

This is Suresh Subrahmanyan’s third volume of tongue-in-cheek vignettes on a variety of subjects. There is no topic or issue under the sun that does not come under his genial and articulate gaze. He wields his pen, in a manner of speaking, with considerable panache and style. His love for the English language is amply evident in the way in which he crafts every sentence with minute care. He is greatly influenced by the British school of writing and the great authors from that formidable stable. He is unapologetic about adopting a slightly old-fashioned style, as he believes the present generation who read (and that tribe is rapidly dwindling) should appreciate that this is the language of Shakespeare and Milton, without the likes of whom we would all be talking to each other with a vocabulary that does not go beyond words like cool, awesome, shoot, OMG and lowbrow slang like my bad, I’m good, and get a life, bro. In the author’s own words, “Texting trumps writing and language pays the price.” Suresh Subrahmanyan tries to make amends.

Photocatalysis

Principles and Applications

By: Rakshit Ameta,Suresh C. Ameta

Photocatalysis, reactions carried out in the presence of a semiconductor and light, is rapidly becoming one of the most active areas of chemical research, with applications in areas such as electrochemistry, medicine, and environmental chemistry, Photocatalysis: Principles and Applications stresses the development of various types of photocatalytic semiconductors, including binary, ternary, quaternary, and composite, and their modifications by metallization, sensitization, and doping to enhance their photocatalytic activities. In addition to describing the principles and mechanisms of photocatalysis, it also discusses other possible applications of photocatalysis such as use as antifouling agents, controlling air pollution by degrading contaminants present in the environment, self-cleaning of glasses and tiles in the presence of light/artificial light, green composites, wastewater treatment, hydrogen generation, and inactivation of microorganisms. The book also describes medical applications and summarizes efforts in the field of photosplitting of water as a newer energy source and photoreduction of carbon dioxide for providing synthetic fuels and also a step towards mimicking photosynthesis. Introduces the basic principle of photocatalysis. Provides an overview of the types of semiconductors, their immobilization, and modifications to make them more active. Gives possible applications of photocatalysis in wastewater treatment and strategy to combat against different kinds of pollutions like water, air, and soil. Summarizes efforts in the field of photosplitting of water as a newer energy source and photoreduction of carbon dioxide for providing synthetic fuels and as a step towards mimicking photosynthesis. Discusses inactivation of different kinds of microorganisms. Covers medical applications. Features Introduces the basic principle of photocatalysis.

Solder Joint Reliability Prediction for Multiple Environments

By: Andrew E. Perkins,Suresh K. Sitaraman

Solder Joint Reliability Prediction for Multiple Environments will provide industry engineers, graduate students and academic researchers, and reliability experts with insights and useful tools for evaluating solder joint reliability of ceramic area array electronic packages under multiple environments. The material presented here is not limited to ceramic area array packages only, it can also be used as a methodology for relating numerical simulations and experimental data into an easy-to-use equation that captures the essential information needed to predict solder joint reliability. Such a methodology is often needed to relate complex information in a simple manner to managers and non-experts in solder joint who work with computer server applications as well as for harsh environments such as those found in the defense, space, and automotive industries.

UNIVERSE-MY UNIVERSE-I AM THE UNIVERSE

PARVATHEESAM WITH PARAMANANDAIAH

By: Basoji Suresh Ram

We learn many principles and theories every day that seem endless. But, can’t a single theory be made to cover every single movement or process of evolution of this Universe? It is the very theory I call it “theory of everything” we are going to discuss in this book which is a single and comprehensive Principle as the name suggests. As per the proposed principle, the Universe is one that is the Great Universe which perhaps due to the different situations encountered by it, is appearing like different universes. When we go into Philosophy(Tattva) or Physical Science, they came into existence on their own, go on evolving to ultimately die on their own. It is not enough to study how the Universe behaves to totally know about the Universe but we also should know the reasons behind that behaviour. That is what is done in this book. I only made an attempt to get ultimate answers to the life cycle of us and also to the Universe. It is with that aim to make an analysis by collaborating the two schools of thoughts of Philosophy and Science, the book is written. Instead of revealing what is in this book, it is easier to say what it doesn’t consist. But if the contents of the book are to be told in precise, It tells how a common man should look at the Universe. It reveals how the life of a person is made a part of it by the Universe. It explains how the Universe existed, where from it emerged and what it will become at the end of its journey (or evolution). Briefly, the Universe is this book and the this is the Universe

India Rising

Memoir of a Scientist

By: R. Chidambaram,Suresh Gangotra

The book looks at the life of one of India's foremost scientists, Dr R. Chidambaram, who served as principal scientific advisor (PSA) to the Government of India and as chairman of the Scientific Advisory Committee to the Cabinet (SACC) from November 2001 to March 2018. As one of India's most distinguished experimental physicists, Dr Chidambaram has made outstanding contributions to many aspects of basic science and nuclear technology. A Padma Vibhushan awardee, he played a leading and integral role in the design and execution of the peaceful Nuclear Explosion experiment at Pokhran in 1974 and led the team of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), which designed the nuclear devices and carried out in cooperation with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) the Pokhran tests in May 1998. During his stewardship of the DAE, the nuclear power programme got a big boost and the capacity of the nuclear power plants increased sharply. Ruminating about his interactions with the scientific community and the political leadership, Dr Chidambaram describes key events in India's journey to selfreliance in nuclear energy. India Rising is not only a memoir of one of India's eminent scientists, but also a fascinating account of India's ascendance in the world of science and technology.
