Hardcover. Zustand: New. In this candid memoir, Pushpa Sundar shares her transformative journey from a dedicated IAS officer to a pioneering figure in Indian philanthropy. She reflects on the influences that shaped her worldview while growing up in the 1950s in Nagpur, a city rich in historical significance as the birthplace of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Sundar deftly explores the complexities of her environment, marked by influential figures like V.D. Savarkar and the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi. Sundar's narrative unfolds through her college years at prestigious institutions, including the Delhi School of Economics, during the sixties. She examines the vibrant reimagining of Lutyens' Delhi and describes Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru's efforts to showcase independent India's aspirations with landmarks like the Ashoka Hotel. During her tenure in the IAS, Sundar balances a demanding career with her roles as a wife and mother. She candidly discusses the challenges of being a woman in the service and the factors that led her to resign. She also highlights the contributions of luminaries like Verghese Kurien, the architect of the Amul revolution, and others she met while posted in Gujarat, who have left an indelible mark on Indian society. Beyond the Heaven-born Service also examines Sundar's long tenure with the Ford Foundation in the seventies, spotlighting the impact of the controversial Foreign Contributions Regulation Act, enacted by the Indira Gandhi regime in 1976. Pushpa Sundar's experiences and insights, both within India and abroad, make this book more than just a memoir; they inspire a new generationespecially womento redefine success on their own terms.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - India has been a major recipient of international aid since its independence on account of its developmental gaps and wide income disparity; yet it also ranks among the top four nations in the world in terms of the number of billionaires. How and what do these fabulously wealthy Indians contribute to the development of their own society What is the nature of Indian philanthropy Has the phenomenal wealth creation in recent decades seen an increase in altruistic spending in social development, and what role does the Indian state play in promoting or restraining the act of giving Making an important distinction between charity and philanthropy, Giving with a Thousand Hands argues that while charity is alive and well in India, the country is short on philanthropy defined as altruistic giving on a large enough scale to bring about transformative social change. The author in this book offers a vision for the future of Indian philanthropy, maintaining that it has a vital role to play in the country and needs to be encouraged through various measures.…
