"Like the genle morning breeze which catches you unawares and which Fais has spoken of so often, these renderings by Anjum Altaf embody the promise of the day to come." - Salima Hashmi, artist.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Connecting Ghalib with the realities of life encountered by contemporary readers, this volume departs from the traditional approach and abandons the ghazalas the primary medium for introducing this extraordinary poet to new readers. With a selection of couplets from Ghalib's ghazalsthat best exemplify his power as a source of insight, knowledge, and wisdom, these are presented in Urdu, Hindi, and Roman transliteration along with a literal translation, and interpretation, relating it to the central social, political and economic issues of our times. It is the creative timelessness of his poetry that makes this a 'brilliant contribution to understanding the past in the present.'.…

Subject Index. Oxidative stress is a central factor in a number of biotic and abiotic stress phenomena that occurs when there is a serious imbalance in any plant cell compartment between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defense, leading to physiological and metabolic changes. The presence of high concentration of ROS in cells causes oxidative damage to photosynthetic functions and vital bio-molecules, and disrupt cellular metabolism. Thus, it is important for plant cells to have tight control on the concentration of ROS. Plants possess to a variable extent antioxidant metabolites, enzymes and non-enzymes that have the ability to detoxify ROS thus, to protect the photosynthetic- and cellular functions against ROS-caused oxidative stress and to maintain optimum growth, development and productivity under changing environment. The current volume mainly elucidates major recent advances through physiological and molecular studies on the aspects of the causes, consequences of oxidative stress and also discusses and suggests potential strategies for enhancing tolerance to oxidative stress in detail in the light of recent advances in molecular biology. …

Hardcover. Zustand: New. A Modern Introduction to Indian Music and Other Essays is a collective endeavour to understand the scientific foundation of Indian music using an unusual dialogic format for mutual learning. The premise is that the appreciation of music, much like that of a game, can be enhanced by knowing its rules and underlying fundamentals. The traditional style of music education fails to address this aspect, relying instead on faithfully following a master. In this book, a group of untrained beginners venture into this uncharted territory to find out for themselves. By talking to and questioning each other, guided by two eminent gurus, they uncover a fascinating domain of knowledge and understand why its awareness matters. In the process, they are surprised by how much they learn about music, themselves, and the world they live in. The second half of the book comprises conversations that use music as a point of entry to explore issues of culture, faith, identity, and social order. The book also includes a guide to further study and help readers extend their aesthetic and intellectual appreciation of music and its relevance to our lives.…

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
