Book Synopsis Legacy to Bureaucracy by : Vp Sawhney
Download or read book Legacy to Bureaucracy written by Vp Sawhney and published by Lancer Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than personal memoirs, this book is an excellent commentary on the inflections of pre-independence and post-independence India. The author has a parental legacy that could be an envy of many. It is refreshing to run through the snippets of his father's writings that cover an amazing range of the contemporary environment, his sensitivity to the political developments of the day, and the personal values which he sought to imbibe. Partition again was a watershed for millions in the sub-continent. Many families were made or marred. The author's description of his journey from childhood in Lyallpur (now in Pakistan) to his struggle later as an adolescent is a vivid run of the tragic events that had then unveiled; and his resurgence by and by as a young man of promise in the Brave New World. Much has been said about the unique character of the Indian Administrative Service. The author fills many details about the preparation for the competition; the selection process and the in-house training. The many-sided natures of the assignments handled by him provide rare and absorbing insights into several events and personalities that were involved in the evolving contours of our nation. The author's concern that all was not well with the system is well taken. He cites some disturbing instances of the rapidly shrinking space between the politician and the bureaucracy. Altogether, the book is a very good read. It offers a sumptuous fare for empathy and introspection. Not to miss also the delectable dessert that he offers with the wit quill through the piebald! The author VP Sawhney, more commonly known as Gullu Sawhney, was born in Lyallpur in the Punjab province of undivided India.After Partition, his family migrated from Pakistan to India. He studied at St Stephens College and University of Delhi. After completing his post graduation in Physics, he worked briefly as a Research Assistant with Professor DS Kothari. He joined the Indian Administrative Service in 1958. In a span of over 35 years, he had a variety of postings under the State and the Central government, and also served for some years in the UN system. The diarist in him and his father has ended in this kaleidoscopic compendium of advice, observation and experience. The content is holistic and the relevance is universal. It may have a special appeal for students of contemporary history in politics, and in domestic governance. There is also a broad and sumptuous treat for those who take good wit and humour at its face value.

Download or read book The Grazia dei Rossi Trilogy Bundle written by Jacqueline Park and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 1281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exclusive ebook bundle of all three novels in Jacqueline Park’s bestselling Grazia dei Rossi trilogy, a sweeping saga of intrigue and romance set during the Italian Renaissance. The Secret Book of Grazia dei Rossi introduces Grazia, private secretary to the world-renowned Isabella d’Este, daughter of an eminent Jewish banker, the wife of the pope’s Jewish physician, and the lover of a Christian prince. In a “secret book,” written as a legacy for her son, she records her struggles to choose between the seductions of the Christian world and a return to the family, traditions, and duties to her Jewish roots. As she re-creates Renaissance Italy in captivating detail, Jacqueline Park gives us a timeless portrait of a brave and brilliant woman trapped in an unforgiving, inflexible society. The stunning sequel set in sixteenth-century Istanbul during the illustrious Ottoman Empire, The Legacy of Grazia dei Rossi chronicles the fate of Grazia dei Rossi’s son, Danilo del Medigo, and his forbidden love affair with Princess Saida, the Sultan’s beloved daughter. Son of Two Fathers, the long-awaited conclusion to the trilogy, follows Danilo del Medigo as he makes his return to the great Republic of Venice at the height of European Christendom’s persecution of the Jews, with two assassins from Suleiman the Magnificent’s court hot on his trail.
Book Synopsis Pythagoras' Legacy by : Marcel Danesi
Download or read book Pythagoras' Legacy written by Marcel Danesi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the famous Pythagorean statement reads, 'Number rules the universe', and its veracity is proven in the many mathematical discoveries that have accelerated the development of science, engineering, and even philosophy. A so called "art of the mind", mathematics has guided and stimulated many aspects of human innovation down through the centuries. In this book, Marcel Danesi presents a historical overview of the ten greatest achievements in mathematics, and dynamically explores their importance and effects on our daily lives. Considered as a chain of events rather than isolated incidents, Danesi takes us from the beginnings of modern day mathematics with Pythagoras, through the concept of zero, right the way up to modern computational algorithms. Loaded with thought-provoking practical exercises and puzzles, Pythagoras' Legacy allows the reader to apply their knowledge and discover the significance of mathematics in their everyday lives.
Book Synopsis Legacy of the Lash by : Zachary R. Morgan
Download or read book Legacy of the Lash written by Zachary R. Morgan and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of corporal punishment in the Brazilian navy and the four-day mutiny that took Rio hostage and put an end to the violent practice. Legacy of the Lash is a compelling social and cultural history of the Brazilian navy in the decades preceding and immediately following the 1888 abolition of slavery in Brazil. Focusing on non-elite, mostly black enlisted men and the oppressive labor regimes under which they struggled, the book is an examination of the four-day Revolta da Chibata (Revolt of the Lash) of November 1910, during which nearly half of Rio de Janeiro’s enlisted men rebelled against the use of corporal punishment in the navy. These men seized four new, powerful warships, turned their guns on Rio de Janeiro, Brazil’s capital city, and held its population hostage until the government abolished the use of the lash as a means of military discipline. Although the revolt succeeded, the men involved paid dearly for their actions. This event provides a clear lens through which to examine racial identity, violence, masculinity, citizenship, modernity, and the construction of the Brazilian nation. “Offering new insights into the spectacular sailors’ revolt of 1910, Zachary R. Morgan treats the “deep structure” of Brazilian naval discipline, one based primarily on flogging. Slavery was only abolished in 1888, and the mutineers, largely of African descent, saw flogging as an intolerable holdover from the slave era. Morgan also shows the incompatibility of the old labor regime and modern naval technology. Trained on the new battleships in the English shipyards where they were built, Brazilian sailors increasingly viewed themselves as citizens in uniform.” —Joseph L. Love, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign “Legacy of the Lash is a stellar contribution to the growing global scholarship on mutiny and maritime radicalism. Zachary R. Morgan brings back to vibrant life the history-making powers of Brazil’s motley crews in the early twentieth century.” —Marcus Rediker, author of The Slave Ship: A Human History
