The Heart Of India,the result of the author's life time effort to understand the nature of things Indian,describes the human situation in India after Independance.The author resorts to the historical method,and surprisingly encounters not staticity,but a continuing,dynamic,and even explosive process,within which history and geography have worked to create dissimilar communities and endless conflicts.In the process of research he works exhaustively with Indian ethnic communities.The account has the kaleidoscope quality of a motion picture,linking all historic events from Aryan migration upto Nehru's death in a coherent,though shifting perspective,which also reveals that the grip of established tradition on all communities has not relaxed.Yet the highlight of this book is undoubtedly the author's imaginative interpretation of the Hindu personality based on original sources.Chaudhuri's language is forceful and expressive,and his arguments are well defined and lucid.The Heart Of India is without doubt,one of this controversial author's most compelling and authoritative work - a landmark in Indian literary histroy. The book was originally published as "The Continent of Circe"..

The Panchatantra

The Panchatantra, one of the world's greatest collections of tales, was compiled in India by a learned Brahmin named Vishnu Sharman, more than 2,000 years ago. These stories were meant to impart worldly wisdom to the dull-witted sons of a king, and have since travelled the world, awakening intelligence in readers across centuries. This book is a rare coming together of simple format, rich poetry, practical wisdom and lofty ideals, a vehicle to transmit the simple and timeless truths of the Panchatantra in a concise manner to a modern audience.

THE NEW BANK MOVEMENT &amp; the untold story of THE MAKING OF INDIA S MOST VALUED BANK This is the story of the birth and growth of India s most valued Bank HDFC Bank Ltd against the backdrop of the new bank movement in India that started in 1994 when the Reserve Bank of India opened up the sector to introduce competition and to force banks to be efficient and more productive. Many books have tried to give meaning to India s recent history, to put it in the larger context of a complicated and confounding society, but this effort stands out because it does something that has been difficult to attempt retelling the story of modern India through the lens of business. Given the author s familiarity with bankers, policy makers and central bankers, this fast-paced, jargon-free book, written for a wide audience, brings to life an engrossing and sweeping tale of 21st century India, with all its foibles and charms.

In the Mid 1700s,the famed poet of Kerala Kunjan Nambiar,composed an eloquent work on the heroics of Krishna in the literary style called Mani Pravalam - a composite of the two languages,Sanskrit and Malyalam. Titled Krishna Charitam,this epic begins with the birth of Krishna,meanders through his loveable pranks and later,through his amorous interludes with the milkmaids of Vrindavan. The fast moving narrative takes readers through many of Krishna's other adventures,such as his fight with the giant serpent Kaliya.his defeat of the evil king Kamsa,his marriage to the beautiful princess Rukmini,his encounter with Jambavan,king of the bears and the many efforts to establish dharma.Many,lesser known stories are also told,such as the episode where he retrieves ten dead children from the land of Vishnu. All these narratives are interspersed with abundant humour,delightful descriptions of nature as well as numerous proverbs and pithy urgings. For many years,this great poem remained locked in the language of ManiPravalam,enjoyed only by a regional community.Now this English translation opens up that enchanting world of Krishna to a wider audience.
