As she accepts her fate and marries, religious upheaval is splitting the country and forcing her family to find a new home. In 2014, her granddaughter, molecular biologist Nimita Sachdev, escapes India to run away from the prospect of an arranged marriage.

Book Synopsis Meditation as Contemplative Inquiry by : Arthur Zajonc
Download or read book Meditation as Contemplative Inquiry written by Arthur Zajonc and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 7 lectures, various cities, April 17-May 26, 1914 (CW 154) What is the relationship between those who have died and those who remain alive on Earth? Can we help those now in the spiritual world? Can they help us? In these talks, Rudolf Steiner deals with the spiritual relationships that the living can have with those who have crossed over the threshold between life and death. In a realistic, practical way, he shows how an understanding of our spiritual nature reveals ways of knowing a world undreamed of by materialists. The tone of these talks is warm and moving, clearly drawn from Steiner's own experience and the lives of those who had died and who were personally known to him--Robert Hamerling, Christian Morgenstern, and others. This important work is for those who are coming to terms with the death of a love one. This book is a translation from German of Wie erwirbt man sich Verständnis für die geistige Welt? Das Einfließen geistiger Impulse aus der Welt der Verstorbenen (GA 154).
Book Synopsis Am I Just A Baby Vending Machine? Infertility through the eyes of a fertility specialist by : Dr.Nikita Naredi
Download or read book Am I Just A Baby Vending Machine? Infertility through the eyes of a fertility specialist written by Dr.Nikita Naredi and published by Gurulight. This book was released on 2024-03-18 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Your womb is of no use. If you don’t get pregnant in the next six months, I will get my son married again. We cannot wait any longer.’ Nikita Naredi's memoir unravels the gory reality of being a woman without a child in a boy-harping society. For a fertility expert like Naredi, treating infertility does not just involve taking care of dysfunctional people’s reproductive anatomies, pumping injections and hormones into the patient or fusing gametes in the lab but a complex mélange of uncomfortable conversations, and altered relationships with partners and families. It questions one’s faith and belief system. Experience this turbulent interplay of biology, emotions and societal expectations through this book. For a woman made to believe that motherhood alone defines her womanhood, childlessness is a shackle no woman wants. Through her experiences, Nikita has attempted to provide an honest glimpse into the lives of sub-fertile couples often riddled with self-doubt, low self-esteem, torment, travails and tribulations. In this ode to her patients, Nikita has also laid bare her own agitation when a woman is exploited, despair when her best efforts to help them conceive fail, victory and joy when the woman conceives, and overall anguish at the social fabric that ignores the predicament of childless women.
Book Synopsis The Structure of Words at the Interfaces by : Heather Newell
Download or read book The Structure of Words at the Interfaces written by Heather Newell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume takes a variety of approaches to the question 'what is a word?', with particular emphasis on where in the grammar wordhood is determined. Chapters in the book all start from the assumption that structures at, above, and below the 'word' are built in the same derivational system: there is no lexicalist grammatical subsystem dedicated to word-building. This type of framework foregrounds the difficulty in defining wordhood. Questions such as whether there are restrictions on the size of structures that distinguish words from phrases, or whether there are combinatory operations that are specific to one or the other, are central to the debate. In this respect, chapters in the volume do not all agree. Some propose wordhood to be limited to entities defined by syntactic heads, while others propose that phrasal structure can be found within words. Some propose that head-movement and adjunction (and Morphological Merger, as its mirror image) are the manner in which words are built, while others propose that phrasal movements are crucial to determining the order of morphemes word-internally. All chapters point to the conclusion that the phonological domains that we call words are read off of the morphosyntactic structure in particular ways. It is the study of this interface, between the syntactic and phonological modules of Universal Grammar, that underpins the discussion in this volume.

Book excerpt: Are you a dreamer, like Nimita? Do you believe in a better tomorrow? This story presents a glimpse into the life of an immigrant child, Nimita, whose Taíno-Cuban family owns and operates a sanctuary for farm animals. It is also a reflection on personhood, kinship, culture, and the growing urgency of embracing eco-friendly values. In Taíno folklore, it is said that the fireflies in the forest at dusk are really the glowing eyes of our ancestors, watching us. What would your ancestors make of how you treat your fellow humans and the other people of Earth? What would they make of how you treat Mother Earth herself?
Book Synopsis What an India, Sirjee by : Anoop Wadhwa
Download or read book What an India, Sirjee written by Anoop Wadhwa and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What an India, Sirjee takes off in the year 1931 around the impending hanging of the great martyr Bhagat Singh and culminates in the year 1952. The book dwells on what India would have been had Congress NOT been at the forefront of governance when India attained independence. The book deliberates on how Bhagat Singh is rescued by Netaji Subhas Chander Bose, who himself also survives the day and the two together visualise and create a glorious India beginning 1947. Even as far back as in 1952 as their government's first term comes to an end, a common man is not bereft of food, shelter and clothing, which in effect was the case as long as Congress ruled the nation. This facet has been brought alive through an emotional tale of three siblings Ganga, Jamuna and Saraswati who assume the shape of an analogy to a poverty-stricken common man, thereby making the book both relatable and an easy read.
Book Synopsis Syntax and its Limits by : Raffaella Folli
Download or read book Syntax and its Limits written by Raffaella Folli and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, leading linguists explore the empirical scope of syntactic theory, by concentrating on a set of phenomena for which both syntactic and nonsyntactic analyses initially appear plausible. Exploring the nature of such phenomena permits a deeper understanding of the nature of syntax and of neighbouring modules and their interaction. The book contributes to both traditional work in generative syntax and to the recent emphasis placed on questions related to the interfaces. The major topics covered include areas of current intensive research within the Minimalist Program and syntactic theory more generally, such as constraints on scope and binding relations, information-structural effects on syntactic structure, the structure of words and idioms, argument- and event-structural alternations, and the nature of the relations between syntactic, semantic, and phonological representations. After the editors' introduction, the volume is organized into four thematic sections: architectures; syntax and information structure; syntax and the lexicon; and lexical items at the interfaces. The volume is of interest to syntactic theorists, as well as linguists and cognitive scientists working in neighbouring disciplines such as lexical and compositional semantics, pragmatics and discourse structure, and morphophonology, and anyone with an interest in the modular architecture of the language faculty.

Book excerpt: This book covers the sustainability issues of a green environment towards economics and society in terms of alteration in industrial pollution levels, effect of reduced carbon emissions, changes in water bodies characteristics with respect to heavy metal contamination, monitoring of associated impact with respect to ecology and biodiversity, impact of reduced noise levels and air quality influences on human health, handling and management of biomedical waste. According to WHO, 80% of people living in urban areas are exposed to air exceeding safe limits. The advent of "sustainability‟ in development science has led planners to apply evolving notions of "sustainability‟ to the contemporary debate over how cities and regions should be revitalized, redeveloped, and reformed. Market allocation of resources, sustained levels of growth and consumption, an assumption that natural resources are unlimited and a belief that economic growth will „trickle down‟ to the poor have been its hallmarks. The recent advance technology helps to promote green and clean modern societies continuously. The Internet of things will be playing an important role in the upcoming years in environment protection and sustainable development. There is a focus on paradigm shift in the sustainable development for the green environment during the period of isolation of COVID-19. This is the moment for the mobilization against the climate crisis. The sudden fall in pollutants and subsequent blue skies signifies a dramatic shift for India and also other affected countries during this period. Fighting climate change requires a collaborative approach between all spheres of society unlike the former. It must heavily redirect resources towards local, sustainable activities, including education, health, sustainable agriculture and circular management of resources. The impact of COVID-19 pandemic which has resulted in the dramatic change in the different aspects of the environment. The global lockdown has led to a rejuvenation of nature, ecosystems, biodiversity.
