Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. The dynamics of public administration calls for fast and adaptive responses to challenges and problems faced by civil servants in dealing with day-to-day and long-term administrative issues. Post partition, the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) has provided a firm foundation for all-round development in the country. This anthology presents myriad experiences, encounters, initiatives, innovations and successes of eminent IAS officers who have left an imprint on the administrative system. It is full of reflections and musings that are steeped in profound administrative wisdom. It will serve as a reference and research material for those who seek to explore, analyse and learn from the nuances of administrative action. The book is divided into three parts: the first devoted to ?unforgettables? events, episodes and kernels of experiences; the second dedicated to ?cherishables?, i.e., veterans and stalwarts among administrators whose rich memories are worth sharing with the present and future generations of civil servants; and the third part includes recollections of their interface with the Chief Ministers with whom they came in close contact. The contributions made in this book exemplify the nature of law and order and other related problems faced by civil servants and some of these may serve as bases for case studies for the training of probationers in training academies and institutes. Finally, the knowledge, experience and appreciation of unforgettable events and cherishable personalities may also open up avenues for further administrative reforms in the country. Senior citizens, enlightened opinion makers and knowledge seekers of administrative experience will find this volume an interesting read.…

The Satellite Remote Sensing and GIS, a new fast developing technology, has potential for quick and accurate assessment and characterization of natural resources potentials. Nowadays, for any small query, planning and management of natural resources, one can find quick answer by referring the satellite images. But, satellite images have to be interpreted which requires training and skill. During recent years, at many Universities, at graduate and post graduate degree courses of engineering, agriculture, forestry, geology, geography and environmental sciences, Remote sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS) has been added as a part of syllabus. Keeping in mind, this book has been written, in simple explanatory language with illustrations, so that even novice and inexperienced person can understand and interpret the satellite images. There are 19 chapters in the book, covering two aspects, (1) Fundamentals of Remote Sensing Technology which includes satellites and sensors, spectral reflectance characteristics of objects on earth surface, satellite image interpretation techniques and GIS, and (2) Applications of the Technology for identification, mapping and monitoring of landforms, soil, surface and ground water and forest resources; land use/ land cover classification and wasteland mapping; land degradation and desertification classification and mapping; crop identification and acreage estimation, watershed development planning and monitoring; natural calamities and disaster management. Each topic has been elaborately explained with case studies to meet the requirement of the students, teachers and natural resource planners.…

Organic farming is being talked at various forum as a new approach and panacea for conservation of soil health and natural resources. Huge organic wastes being produced at crop fields cattle yards poultry farms fish hatcheries municipal waste and garbage which need to be properly utilized to save our environment. This compendium presents basic concepts about the characteristics and composition of organic waste and its potentials for crop production. The chemistry and biochemistry of organic waste its decomposition and mineralisation and manifestations on soil physical chemical and microbial make up are highly specialized fields of study. Specialists in each of these topics have been invited to contribute and thus a comprehensive account on the biochemistry of organic residues as source of plant nutrients humification process and influence on soil fauna have been thoroughly dealt with. The compendium will be very useful for those involved in maintaining soil health natural resource conservation and organic farming movement. The book will also be equally beneficial for teachers and students of agricultural and environment sciences. 246 pp.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. With rapid advances in science and technology (S&T), the societal expectation from S&T are increasing which includes, providing the basic infrastructure of assured food, water and electricity supply, sanitation, efficient transportation and communication, IT connectivity and e-governance, safety and security of all, as well as finding solutions for alleviating malnutrition and poverty offering adequate healthcare and so on. To cope up with the increasing population in India, the only option left with us is to tap every channel of nutritional food for the security of life and sustainable development. Fortunately, we have plenty of natural resources like aquatic and open land, coastal belt and oceanic resources with rich faunal diversity. Livestock/animal resources are an important contribution to total food production. The role of animals in food and agriculture development programmes is underrated almost everywhere throughout the increasing demand, especially in developing countries. The focal theme of our Animal, Vetirinary and Fisheries Sciences have been well-tuned with the main focal theme of ISCA âScience and Technology: Rural Indiaâ. Rural development as assumed greater importance in India today than in the earlier period in the process of development of the country and our section is playing an important role in it.…

Coral reefs are often termed underwater wonderlands due to the presence of an incredible biodiversity including numerous invertebrates and vertebrates. Among the dense population of benthic and bottom-dwelling inhabitants of the reef, many significant species remain hidden or neglected by researchers. One such example is the vermetids, a unique group of marine gastropods. The present study attempts for the first time to assess the density and identify preferred reef substrates in the Gulf of Kachchh, state of Gujarat, on the western coast of India. A total of three species of the family Vermetidae were recorded during the study and their substrate preferences identified. 10 pp., 6 figs, gr. 8.…

Thar Desert in India is one of the most well-investigated and densely populated regions amongst the world arid zones. A blend of crop and animal husbandries, conservative land use practices, coping mechanisms to minimize adverse effect of drought and a frugal lifestyle have been the characteristic features of its dwellers. Recent increase in biotic pressure has interacted with the fragile environment to create fearsome environmental problems. Governmental responses were prompt in form creating a strong research infrastructure for multi-disciplinary and multi-location research and demonstration on the one hand and in huge investment in irrigation from internally and externally sourced water, desertification control program and an accelerated socio-economic and infrastructure development, softening content of drought and strengthening of livelihoods on the other. Unlike several publications on the Thar, the current effort attempts a comprehensive, pragmatic and off-beat analysis of various developments and goes further to show how the situation today is a blend of both resource degradation and economic development. Recent studies have helped rebuild the past climate history that shows that the climate has been fluctuating during the geological history but reports suggest also that current anthropogenic global warming makes the desert more vulnerable in near future. An attempt has been made also to peep into the future of the Thar. (jacket). …
