Gandhi, a CEO? Absolutely and an incomparable example for our uncertain times, when we need leaders we can trust and admire. Not only was he a moral and intensely spiritual man, but also a supremely practical manager and a powerful agent for change, able to nurture the rebirth of an entire nation.

To achieve this goal, he mastered the elements of personal leadership and institutional management. Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a way nobody has before, employing his fluid, engaging, and conversational style to bring each lesson to life through quotes and vivid examples from Gandhi s life (less)

"Biotechnology concerns the practical application of organisms or their components. Historically biotechnology was an art, involved in the production of wines, beers and cheese.

Nowadays it involves a series of advanced technologies spanning biology, chemistry, and process engineering. In recent years innovations involving genetic engineering and Cryopreservation have had a major impact on biotechnology.

Its applications are diverse, including the production of new drugs, transgenic organisms and biological fuels, gene therapy and clearing up pollution. This book embodies ten chapters, the language of the text is simple and the subject matter is fully illustrated.

When we stand before the immutable presence of the Trimurti at Elephanta or the sensuous yakshis from Mathura or the coupling Mithunas from Khajuraho, we are mesmerised. Life flows from within these images as though they were living, palpable beings.

Radhakrishnan's sculptures in bronze build truly upon the foundations of this heritage. He is engaged with the human figure and the figure alone.

Yet he has moved far far away from the bounds of iconography, of what a figure can or cannot do. He has escaped from rigid textual prescriptions for pratima, the icon in worship.

Indeed, he does not distinguish between the sacred icon and the profane. He is not concerned with proportions of anatomy and canons of measurement his torsos can be bulky, bulging, roughly textured; (less)

From the Preface: "This is a humble effort to generate such an interest towards practical knowledge in the treatment of the poisoning. Throughout the book care has been taken and the subject is presented in such a way that the fundamentals of the subject will be understood easily.

An attempt has been made to explain right from, history till clinical condition including origin, types, etiopathogenesis etc. of poisoning.

Practical perspectives towards the diagnosis, investigations and management according to Ayurveda and contemporary science are also elaborated." (less)
