"Micro-finance is fast growing as a major development strategy and international industry. It seems to provide a practical workable tool to address the deep-seated challenges of poverty.But can it really fulfill this promise? All too often the development goals of micro-finance are lost, either behind technical and managerial solutions in pursuit of financial sustainability, or behind a narrow focus on the poorest. "This book analyses Indian micro-finance in depth to explore how development can be put back into micro-finance. It sets out 390 pp. …

Soft cover. Zustand: New. This is a fascinating account of the Indian freedom struggle from subaltern viewpoints. In August 1973, Ambujammal wrote her autobiography, Naan Kanda Bharatham (The India I Saw), a riveting and insightful account of life as it was in Madras (later Chennai) through almost a century, with the freedom struggle as the background. Hers was not a happy life, and even as the book traces India's journey to becoming an independent nation, it also documents the decline of what was once a proud family. Taken overall, it was a life of achievements but with many crosses to bear. What is remarkable is that Ambujammal chooses not to dwell on the problems and instead focuses on the bigger causes that need support. As one reads the book, it appears as though she asks the reader to judge her on whether her life contributed, even in an infinitesimally small way, to the betterment of the motherland. On that score, it has to be said she triumphs. The India I Saw is a must-read for anyone who wishes to explore a woman's life in India during the twentieth century.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Translated from the Malayalam by Abhirami Girija Sriram and K.S. Bijukumar Jezebel, a young doctor in Kerala, struggles against the cruel realities of a patriarchal world-realities that not even her education, resolve or professional brilliance can shield her from. Her already contentious divorce proceedings go suddenly awry, and her unhappy marriage holds complex secrets. In K.R. Meera's blistering new novel, which takes the form of a courtroom drama to show us the rich inner worlds of its characters, we see Jezebel reflect on her life and its pivotal points as she takes the stand. Through her memories, we see her grow from a reticent, serious young woman to a rebel who refuses to bend to the conventions of society. Like the Biblical story of Queen Jezebel, who was much maligned as a scheming harlot and infamously thrown to her death from her palace window, Jezebel is a novel that asks if independent women can ever live lives that are free of judgement K.R. Meera's hypnotic prose, in this elegant translation from the Malayalam by Abhirami Girija Sriram and K.S. Bijukumar, makes resonant allusions to the Bible in powerful ways that elucidate the correlations between legend and the protagonist's life while also exploring how sexuality and gender roles are manipulated by the dictates of society.…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Karanapaddhati of Putumana Somayaji is an important text of the Kerala School of astronomy and mathematics, probably composed in the 16th century. In the Indian astronomical tradition, the karana texts are essentially computational manuals and they often display a high level of ingenuity in coming up with simplified algorithms for computing planetary longitudes and other related quantities. Karanapaddhati, however, is not a karana text. Rather, it discusses the paddhati or the rationale for arriving at suitable algorithms that are needed while preparing a karana text for a given epoch. Thus the work is addressed not to the almanac maker but to the manual maker. Karanapaddhati presents the theoretical basis for the vakya system, where the true longitudes of the planet are calculated directly by making use of certain auxiliary notions such as the khanda, mandala and dhruva along with tabulated values of changes in the true longitude over certain regular intervals which are expressed in the form vakyas or mnemonic phrases. The text also discusses the method of vallyupasamhara which is essentially a technique of continued fraction expansion for obtaining optimal approximations to the rates of motion of planets and their anomalies, involving ratios of smaller numbers. It also presents a new fast convergent series for π which is not mentioned in the earlier works of the Kerala School. As this is a unique text presenting the rationale behind the vakya system and the computational procedures used in the karana texts, it would serve as a useful companion for all those interested in the history of astronomy. The authors have provided a translation of the text followed by detailed notes which explain all the computational procedures, along with their rationale, by means of diagrams and equations.…
