Soft cover. Zustand: New. 3,000 years ago, deep inside the forests of India, a great thought- revolution was brewing. In those forest labs, the brightest scientist-philosophers contemplated the universe and reflected upon the already-ancient texts called the Vedas, gaining some startling insights into questions that we still have no watertight answers to, like: * What is the universe made of? * How do I know I m looking at a tree when I see one? * Who am I? My body, my mind, my intelligence, my emotions, or NOTA? And where did they put those explosive findings? In a sprawling body of goose-bumpy, thought-provoking and fascinating oral literature called the Upanishads! Intimidated? Don t be! For this joyful, fun guide to some of India s most enduring and secular wisdoms, reinterpreted for first-time explorers by author Roopa Pai, is guaranteed to keep you turning the pages.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Have you ever seen a tree? D-uh! Of course! What is a tree then? A tall, thick, woody plant. Right answer, if you want to get technical about it. But this book is not about getting technical. It's about smelling, feeling, hearing, and really, really looking at trees. It's about looking down (to spot fallen tree bounty), and looking up (to spot canopy patterns against the sky). It's about leaves and flowers and seeds and fruits and roots and shoots. It's about find-outing and walk-around-ing, write downing and I-wonder-why-ing. But it is ultimately about arriving, by yourself, at the non-technical answer to the question 'What is a tree?', which will only be revealed to you when you learn to see a tree as you truly shouldnot with your eyes but with your heart.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Over 150 years ago, in 1870, a public park was inaugurated in Bangalore. Designed by British engineer Richard Sankey, it spread over 100 acres and encompassed features typical to the citygranite outcrops, lush greenery, wide avenues and government buildings. Originally named Meade's Park, it has been known to generations of Bangaloreans as Cubbon Parksanctuary, lung space, thoroughfare, battlefield, picnic spot, repository of urban biodiversity, and public park. In this book, the first of its kind about Cubbon Park, author, columnist and true-blue Bangalorean Roopa Pai, attempts to decode the enduring appeal of the Park. Historical sketches trace the story of not just Cubbon Park, but that of Mysore state and the city itself. Her conversations with Bangaloreans of today show the Park in all its contested glory, even as she writes about the open music spaces it once hosted and its diverse flora and fauna, the powerful lurking at its fringes, waiting to gobble it up, and the citizen activists who tirelessly protect it. Heart-warming and meticulously researched, Cubbon Park is an enduring snapshot of a precious green space that is as much an idea as a physical entity, as fragile as it is powerful, as divisive and as it is unifying, and always central to the city's imagination.…
