Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This great doctrine [Panchsheel signed by Nehru] was born in sin, because it was enunciated to put the seal of our approval upon the destruction of an ancient nation [Tibet] which was associated with us spiritually and culturally... It was a nation which wanted to live its own life and it sought to have been allowed to live its own life..." -Acharya Kriplani "I hope I am not leaving you as cannon fodder for the Chinese. God bless you all." -India's army chief KS Thimayya in his farewell speech in 1961 "Things went so wrong [in India-China War] that had they not happened it would have been difficult to believe them." -S Gopal, Nehru's official biographer "Poor countries are poor because those who have power make choices that create poverty." Such countries develop "extractive" institutions that "keep poor countries poor." -Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson in 'Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity and Poverty' (Nehru laid foundations of EXTRACTIVE INSTITUTIONS that have been the root of India remaining a poor, third-rate third-world nation.) "A young man who isn't a socialist hasn't got a heart; an old man who is a socialist hasn't got a head." -David Lloyd George The term "Hindu rate of growth" is highly inappropriate and unfair, besides being derogatory. The low rate of growth was thanks to Nehruvian policies. Therefore the appropriate term should have been the "Nehruvian rate of growth" or the "Socialistic rate of growth." ---------------------------------------- Foundations of Misery goes into the details of the background, history and particulars of the Integration of the Indian States; Kashmir: BCE to 1950s; Tibet: Erasing a Nation; Himalayan Misadventure (India-China War); The Sinhala & the Tamils (On Sri-Lankan Tamil Problem); India's Self-Inflicted Poverty; Socialism, Babudom & Corruption; Being Foreign to Foreign Policy (Disastrous Policies on External Affairs); Ill-informed Internal Policies; Mental & Cultural Slavery; Distortion of History & Cultural Heritage; Dynacracy (Dynastic Democracy), and so on. The book attempts to unravel the mystery and the truth in-depth on why India remains a poor, pathetic, third-rate, third-world country. How's it that India got so left behind? What was it that India did, or did not do, after independence, that everything is so abysmal and pathetic. Why an overwhelming majority of millions of Indians continue to be condemned to a life of unmitigated misery. What are the foundations of this misery? And why all this unmitigated misery despite the overwhelming advantage of India as a nation with first-rate people, plentiful natural resources, grand civilisational heritage, rich culture and languages, unmatched ethical and spiritual traditions, and relatively much better position in all fields-infrastructure, trained manpower, bureaucracy, army-at the time of independence compared to many east-Asian nations who have since overtaken us. Why did India fail to leverage such rich assets of a gifted country? Incidents, information and revelations that would shock common readers and would make them exclaim: 'Oh God, was this so? I didn't know!' Not that the facts or revelations are new, only they are not commonly known. There are significant differences between my this book and my other book 'Nehru's 97 Major Blunders'. Each serves a different purpose, and one is NOT a substitute, or a summary, for the other. 'Nehru's 97 Major Blunders' has a much wider coverage on blunders, but does not go into the details and history like this book does.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Foundations of Misery, Part-I: 1947-64" focuses on the blunders committed by India after independence during the Nehruvian era, many of which still affect and vitiate its present-in the hope that once there is an enlightened understanding of the past, free from the pervasive fiction, India would be better able to tackle its present and future. It attempts to unravel the mystery and the truth in-depth on why India remains a poor, pathetic, third-rate, third-world country of shabby and squalid urban spaces and impoverished villages-that are more like defacement of the environment and blots on the landscape, resembling a gigantic garbage bin. How's it that India got so left behind? What was it that India did, or did not do, after independence, that everything is so abysmal and pathetic. While many nations who were much behind India have long since become part of the first-world, an overwhelming majority of millions of Indians continue to be condemned to a life of unmitigated misery. What are the foundations of this misery? And why all this unmitigated misery despite the overwhelming advantage of India as a nation with first-rate people, plentiful natural resources, grand civilisational heritage, rich culture and languages, unmatched ethical and spiritual traditions, and relatively much better position in all fields-infrastructure, trained manpower, bureaucracy, army-at the time of independence compared to many east-Asian nations who have since overtaken us. Why did India fail to leverage such rich assets of a gifted country? Incidents, information and revelations that would shock common readers and would make them exclaim: 'Oh God, was this so? I didn't know! How things have been kept under covers!!' Not that the facts or revelations are new, only they are not commonly known. There are a large number of books, booklets and articles exclusively dealing with the accession of the princely states, tackling of recalcitrant states like Junagadh and Hyderabad, Kashmir problem, India-China boundary issues, India-China war, Tibet, annexation of Tibet by China, plight of the Sri Lankan Tamils, India's quest for a permanent seat in the UN, India's foreign policy after independence, disappearance of Netaji Subhash, reorganisation of states, the language issue, plight of the Dalits, incomparable contributions of Netaji Subhash, Sardar Patel and Dr Ambedkar, yet their relative neglect in the post-independence India, India's suicidal plunge into socialism, babudom and corruption resulting in wide-spread poverty, hunger and misery, and the curse of the dynacracy-dynastic democracy. Getting a hang on these diverse issues would mean plodding through thousands of pages of books and articles on these subjects, and getting a clarity on them would require studying also competing viewpoints. That's a tall order. This book, Foundations of Misery, seeks to lighten that burden for the readers interested in such subjects. In about 400 pages of this compendious book you have the gist of thousands of pages of books and articles on various relevant subjects. This book, however, is not an outline or a summary or an exercise in precis-writing. Based on the information culled from scores of books and articles and research on the web, this book seeks to present the topics in an original, logical, precise and engrossing manner, with due clarity.

Book excerpt: From the Laws of Mount Misery: There are no laws in psychiatry. Now, from the author of the riotous, moving, bestselling classic, The House of God, comes a lacerating and brilliant novel of doctors and patients in a psychiatric hospital. Mount Misery is a prestigious facility set in the rolling green hills of New England, its country club atmosphere maintained by generous corporate contributions. Dr. Roy Basch (hero of The House of God) is lucky enough to train there *only to discover doctors caught up in the circus of competing psychiatric theories, and patients who are often there for one main reason: they've got good insurance. From the Laws of Mount Misery: Your colleagues will hurt you more than your patients. On rounds at Mount Misery, it's not always easy for Basch to tell the patients from the doctors: Errol Cabot, the drug cowboy whose practice provides him with guinea pigs for his imaginative prescription cocktails . . . Blair Heiler, the world expert on borderlines (a diagnosis that applies to just about everybody) . . . A. K. Lowell, née Aliyah K. Lowenschteiner, whose Freudian analytic technique is so razor sharp it prohibits her from actually speaking to patients . . . And Schlomo Dove, the loony, outlandish shrink accused of having sex with a beautiful, well-to-do female patient. From the Laws of Mount Misery: Psychiatrists specialize in their defects. For Basch the practice of psychiatry soon becomes a nightmare in which psychiatrists compete with one another to find the best ways to reduce human beings to blubbering drug-addled pods, or incite them to an extreme where excessive rage is the only rational response, or tie them up in Freudian knots. And all the while, the doctors seem less interested in their patients' mental health than in a host of other things *managed care insurance money, drug company research grants and kickbacks, and their own professional advancement. From the Laws of Mount Misery: In psychiatry, first comes treatment, then comes diagnosis. What The House of God did for doctoring the body, Mount Misery does for doctoring the mind. A practicing psychiatrist, Samuel Shem brings vivid authenticity and extraordinary storytelling gifts to this long-awaited sequel, to create a novel that is laugh-out-loud hilarious, terrifying, and provocative. Filled with biting irony and a wonderful sense of the absurd, Mount Misery tells you everything you'll never learn in therapy. And it's a hell of a lot funnier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Excerpts: Pages 1 to 10)Foundations of Misery-I dealt with the blunders of the Nehruvian era, many of which still affect and vitiate India's present.Reinforcing the Foundations of Misery-II deals with India after Nehru. However, it includes a chapter "Mental Slavery" the contents of which span both the periods. The word "Reinforcing" is used, because the Indira-Dynasty reinforced the foundations of India's misery by compounding the blunders of the Nehruvian era. Part-reversal of those world's-worst-economic-practices by the wise non-Dynasts like Narsimha Rao and Vajpayee dramatically turned hopelessness into hope. However, with the return of the Dynasts as UPA-I and II and their rollback to the bad-old-ways, Rao-Vajpayee kindled sunshine of hope again turned into gray cynical hopelessness. It is hoped Modi would usher a new era helping India emerge from its misery and propelling it forward into the ranks of the prosperous first-world.In the last chapter, the book deals with assorted interesting current issues on India and seeks to answer many of the FAQs (frequently asked questions) on India.The book establishes: "Had India embraced Competitive Capitalism after independence, rather than the successful-in-no-country poverty-perpetuating socialistic claptrap, India would have been a more firmly united, prosperous, first-rate, first-world country like Singapore, South Korea, Australia by 1980."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories we tell of American beginnings typically emphasize colonial triumph in the face of adversity. But the early years of English settlement in America were characterized by catastrophe: starvation, disease, extreme violence, ruinous ignorance, and serial abandonment. Seasons of Misery offers a provocative reexamination of the British colonies' chaotic and profoundly unstable beginnings, placing crisis—both experiential and existential—at the center of the story. At the outposts of a fledgling empire and disconnected from the social order of their home society, English settlers were both physically and psychologically estranged from their European identities. They could not control, or often even survive, the world they had intended to possess. According to Kathleen Donegan, it was in this cauldron of uncertainty that colonial identity was formed. Studying the English settlements at Roanoke, Jamestown, Plymouth, and Barbados, Donegan argues that catastrophe marked the threshold between an old European identity and a new colonial identity, a state of instability in which only fragments of Englishness could survive amid the upheavals of the New World. This constant state of crisis also produced the first distinctively colonial literature as settlers attempted to process events that they could neither fully absorb nor understand. Bringing a critical eye to settlers' first-person accounts, Donegan applies a unique combination of narrative history and literary analysis to trace how settlers used a language of catastrophe to describe unprecedented circumstances, witness unrecognizable selves, and report unaccountable events. Seasons of Misery addresses both the stories that colonists told about themselves and the stories that we have constructed in hindsight about them. In doing so, it offers a new account of the meaning of settlement history and the creation of colonial identity.

Book excerpt: This book reveals the strain of a moment in American cultural history that led several remarkable writers -- including Emerson, Warner, and Melville -- to render the stark rupture of loss in innovative ways. Pushing Protestant culture's sense of loss into secular terrain, these three key writers rejected Calvinist and sentimental models of bereavement, creating instead the compensations of a mature American literature whose 'originality' stemmed from its capacity to mourn the loss of a common culture and, through such mourning, to assent to new social and cultural realities. Balaam locates this appeal to 'reality' in the analogies antebellum writers drew between their experience of bereavement, and the experiences of uncertainty and disillusionment, that followed the revolutions in science, the winding down of creedal systems and the economic instability typifying the pre-Civil War era.
