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.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The present autobiographical compilation is unique in the sense that it is not one full-length portrayal of one anthropologist but a succinct and terse life-sketch formatted around a framework by large number of active anthropologists of contemporary times right from the seniormost anthropologist R.K. Mutatkar to Somenath Bhattacharjee. As a result, what is presented in the book, is a unique compendium on the self-memoirs by Indian anthropologists. The autobiographies presented in this volume are narratives on the circumstances and situation making people pursuing anthropology as a career highlighting specific challenges and rewards in their quest for understanding themselves eventually.

A number of unique, rare and uncommon sculptures of extraordinary iconographic and cultural interest lie hidden in museums, sculptural-sheds, private collections and temples. Some of them received attention of scholars whose studies resulted in their identification and appeared in Research Journals, Survey Reports, Proceedings of Conferences and Special Volumes published in India and abroad. But due to lack of communication, language problems, non-availability of these publications, paucity of funds, etc. most of the scholars and research students remain deprived of this precious material causing lacunae in their dissertations and lectures. To rectify this state of affairs, of course in limited way, a project of the following three volumes has been undertaken by the Jnana-Pravaha I. Ganapati, Skanda and Shiva; II. Vishnu, Brahma, Surya and other divinities; III. Devi/Shakti: Sapta-matrikas, Lakshmi, Sarasvati, Durga, etc. This volume presents consolidated account of icons of Ganapati, Skanda and Shiva with their locations, brief descriptions, notable features along with allied references in Vedas, Epics, Puranas, Classical works and folk traditions.
