In An Introduction to the Study of Indian History, the author uses a scientific methodology and contemporary techniques of interpretation for the readers to understand Indian history in a more systematic manner. This was one of the few books which propagated the fact that Indian history cannot be studied in a manner similar to the study of European history. The author has written the book in his unique style and with generous use of examples, which makes it easy for students to understand the subject. This book is an ideal read for advanced students and scholars of Indian history.

Caste is the most dominant single aspect of Indian society and no study of Indian society can be complete without getting into the ramifications of the Hindu caste system. Caste and Race in India, since its first publication in History of Civilisation series, edited by C. K. Ogden in 1932, has remained a basic work for students of Indian sociology and anthropology, and has been acclaimed by teachers and reviewers as a sociological classic. The present edition is an expanded version with five new chapters, comprehensive enough for a separate volume. Answering his critics, the author elaborates his arguments on the evolution of sub-castes and examines caste, sub-caste and kinship in its proper perspective. The relationship between caste and politics, which he has briefly dealt with in the 1932 edition, is developed in the present edition, with a provocative and thorough-going analysis of caste and politics in Tamil Nadu from early times to the present day. The concluding chapter is an incisive analysis of contemporary India: the author apprehends that India will develop into a plural society and not a casteless one, which was a dream of architects of her Constitution.

Language: EnglishPages: 256 (Throughout B/W Illustrations)About The BookAs Ustad Zakir Hussain says in his foreword in the book, there is a lack of definitive, uniform methodology in the teaching of table. Author Sadanand Naimpalli, himself one of the fines maestros in the country today, takes up the challenge in Theory and Practice of Tabla for students of table everywhere. His book will make a student appreciate fully the language of one of the most versatile percussion instruments in the world its grammar, aesthetic, its powerful idioms and the sheer poetry and sophistication when handled by a competent player. The book is in two parts. Part One deals with theory history and terminology of table. Part Two deals with practice taals and bols. The book presents a comprehensive view of all the different schools and will be useful to beginners ad trained students alike. About The Author Sadanand Naimpalli is an engineer by training and a musician by choice. A leading disciple of the legendary Guru Pandit Taranath, he is one of the leading tabla soloists and accompanists in the country today. He is a Top Grade artist of Akashwani and Doordarshan and a winner of several national awards. His workshops and lecture-demonstrations have made him one of the great educators of table. He also plays the pakhawaj. ForewordOne of the main concerns I have is about the lack of unification in the standardization of the teachings of tabla. Tabla is one of the youngest instruments in the field of North Indian Classical music and is still in the development stage. But the repertoire that is played on tabla is a mix of the pakhawaj compositions of the old tradition and compositions that have been recently written for tabla. By recent, I mean the last
