Book excerpt: Though Pakistan has made progress toward achieving its education, gender equity, and health Millennium Goals, it is unlikely to reach 2015 targets. In general, achievements were lower in rural areas and in lower-income households. Pakistani girls still have lower enrollment in primary and secondary schools, and do not perform as well as boys on tests. Adult female literacy varies widely by province. Women continue to face many forms of gender-based violence, and often are restricted from leaving their homes. While employment rates among women have doubled in the last decade, women are more likely to be unemployed than men, and lack access to finance or assets.

Book excerpt: Pakistan is a strategic ally of the US in the 'war on terror'. It is the third largest recipient of US aid in the world. Yet Pakistan is a state run by its army and intelligence service. Operating in the shadows, Pakistan's military industrial complex owns and controls swathes of the economic and political landscape of the country. Military Inc. dares to illuminate the military as an oppressive holding company possessing not just security-related businesses, but also hotels, shopping malls, insurance companies, banks, farms and even an airline. The result is a deeply undemocratic society, where money is funnelled towards the military's economic enterprises, leaving those in need of it impoverished and effectively disenfranchised. With an empirical richness, and a view to Pakistan's recent history, Ayesha Siddiqa offers a detailed and powerful case study of a global phenomenon: corruption, hollow economic growth and elitism. This new edition includes a chapter on the recent developments of the military's foray into the media, and a new preface.

Book excerpt: A sheltered Pakistani girl is sent to America by her parents, with unexpected results: “Entertaining, often hilarious . . . Not just another immigrant’s tale.” —Publishers Weekly Feroza Ginwalla, a pampered, protected sixteen-year-old Pakistani girl, is sent to America by her parents, who are alarmed by the fundamentalism overtaking Pakistan—and influencing their daughter. Hoping that a few months with her uncle, an MIT grad student, will soften the girl’s rigid thinking, they get more than they bargained for: Feroza, enthralled by American culture and her new freedom, insists on staying. A bargain is struck, allowing Feroza to attend college with the understanding that she will return home and marry well. As a student in a small western town, Feroza finds her perceptions of America, her homeland, and herself beginning to alter. When she falls in love with a Jewish American, her family is aghast. Feroza realizes just how far she has come—and wonders how much further she can go—in a delightful, remarkably funny coming-of-age novel that offers an acute portrayal of America as seen through the eyes of a perceptive young immigrant. “Humorous and affecting.” —Library Journal “Exceptional.” —Los Angeles Times “Her characters [are] painted so vividly you can almost hear them bickering.” —The New York Times

Download or read book Introduction to Information Behaviour written by Nigel Ford and published by Facet Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark textbook is an essential primer for students and practitioners interested in information seeking, needs and behaviour, user studies and information literacy. Introduction to Information Behaviour uses a combination of theory and practical context to map out what information behaviour is and what we currently know about it, before addressing how it can be better understood in the future. Nigel Ford argues that new understandings of information behaviour research may help maximise the quality and effectiveness of the way information is presented, sought, discovered, evaluated and used. The book introduces the key concepts, issues and themes of information behaviour, illustrates them using key research studies, and provides a clear path through the complex maze of theories and models. The book is structured to move from the basics to the more complex and employs the pedagogical device of “THINK” boxes which invite the reader to think about concepts as they are introduced in order to consolidate their understanding before moving on. Case studies are included throughout the text and each chapter concludes with a round-up of what has been covered, highlighting the implications for professional information practice. The key topics covered include: Defining information behaviour and why is it useful to know about it Information needs Information seeking and acquisition Collaborative information behaviour Factors affecting information behaviour Models and theories of information behaviour Research approaches and methodologies Designing information systems The future trajectory of information behaviour research and practice. Readership: This book will be core reading for students around the world, particularly those on library and information science courses. It will also be of interest to practitioners and professional information users, providers and developers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a decade teaching of Islamic finance course to business graduates (Bachelor and Master classes). This book is written with a clear focus on learning of Islamic banking & finance by accounting, banking, business and finance students/professionals. This book is divided into five parts. Part-1 presents an update on Islamic finance, why and how Islamic banking started; What is current status; Meaning and prohibition of Riba (Interest & Usury) as reported in revealed books (Bible and Qur'an); business models under Islamic financial services industry; principles of Islamic financial system, similarities and differences with conventional finance industry, and challenges being faced by the nascent industry.Part two is about asset-backed financing provided by IFIs. It includes trading (selling) modes of financing including Murabaha (ch.2), Salam, and Istisna'a; it also includes rental-based financing product-Ijarah financing. Chapter 2,3,4,5 include sales and rental-based financing. Part three of the book deals with profit and loss sharing modes of financing including Musharakah, diminishing Musharakah and Mudarabah. A special section is devoted to discussing the causes of lesser application of Musharakah in operations of IFIs, in addition to Shari'ah rulings and financial impact. Chapter seven is about Diminishing Musharakah; a form of gradually declining partnership between an IFI and clients; generally used to finance real estates. Under diminishing Musharakah, the basic Shari'ah rulings, Islamic house financing, comparative study of conventional and Islamic mortgages and installment calculation under different assumptions for house financing are presented. Chapter eight is about Mudarabah. Chapter nine presents various types of deposits collected by IFIs and profit-sharing mechanism. Concepts of daily product and weight-age based profit systems are elaborated.Part four of the book presents special topics in Islamic Finance. In this part areas of liquidity management, Islamic insurance, currency system, substance & form, and challenges to Islamic finance industry are elaborated. Under Islamic capital market (liquidity management) two dedicated chapters have been included; each for equities and sukuk. Chapter 12 elaborates briefly the concept of Islamic insurance covering multiple areas including Shari'ah guidelines, takaful (insurance) models, and role of insurance company, in addition to illustrative financial calculations. Chapter-13 addresses the issue of preference for 'legal form over economic substance' by critically evaluating the selected Islamic finance contracts Last chapter identifies the challenges [potentially hurdles in sustainability, growth and expansion of the industry]. The fifth edition is the outcome of encouraging response by the academic community to earlier editions. In this edition, due attention has been given to present material in a reader-friendly mode in addition to a thorough review of content, exercises and figures. Title of the book changed by adding prefix of 'fundamentals' to reflect the nature of work (as text book). In this edition, the chapter on Islamic finance: an update is revised thoroughly; and by insertion of specific contents including principles and business models of Islamic financial system, in addition to brief presentation of challenges. Besides, Islamic capital market is re-written by including an evaluation of methodologies used in creation of Shari'ah universes of stocks. Also, a new chapter included to present the application of 'form over substance' principle to industry practices. Updated figures on the global volume of assets, application of financial products; regional shares, etc. are also part of this edition. Also, more examples included in the text to make the concept clear. An increased number of multiple-choice questions and mini cases are also forming part ofthe updated edition. I welcome readers' Feedback.

Download or read book Dropping Out written by Russell W. Rumberger and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-15 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast majority of kids in the developed world finish high school—but not in the United States. More than a million kids drop out every year, around 7,000 a day, and the numbers are rising. Dropping Out offers a comprehensive overview by one of the country’s leading experts, and provides answers to fundamental questions: Who drops out, and why? What happens to them when they do? How can we prevent at-risk kids from short-circuiting their futures? Students start disengaging long before they get to high school, and the consequences are severe—not just for individuals but for the larger society and economy. Dropouts never catch up with high school graduates on any measure. They are less likely to find work at all, and more likely to live in poverty, commit crimes, and suffer health problems. Even life expectancy for dropouts is shorter by seven years than for those who earn a diploma. Russell Rumberger advocates targeting the most vulnerable students as far back as the early elementary grades. And he levels sharp criticism at the conventional definition of success as readiness for college. He argues that high schools must offer all students what they need to succeed in the workplace and independent adult life. A more flexible and practical definition of achievement—one in which a high school education does not simply qualify you for more school—can make school make sense to young people. And maybe keep them there.
