Hardcover. Zustand: New. Human adaptation to high altitude has been an interesting area of research in physical anthropology, physiology, as well as in medical sciences. The question on 'how human adapt to high altitude environments?' receives considerable attention from researchers because of the distinctive characteristics of…high altitude environment. This book is a brief presentation of a comparative-quantitative research which was carried out among the Monpas of West Kameng and Tawang districts in Arunachal Pradesh from September 2012 to August 2015 with an objective to understand the adaptation pattern of the Monpas vis-a-vis other high altitude (e.g., Andean and Tibetan) populations. It focuses on the analyses of those variables that by and large fall within the field of physiological anthropology (Physiological, and Hematological characteristics); other traits i.e., skin fold thickness, body fat (fat%, fat-mass, fat-free mass), and BMI are also selected for the purpose of analysis. The author invites the readers to be generous in their critical appreciation, forgiving the limitations they might find in some places, but exploring the insightful findings this book presents.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The increasing erosion in the right bank of the Padma in the Moribund delta region of Murshidabad district, West Bengal is becoming the nightmare for the people of the area. The Padma is the principal river of the region and controls total drainage system of the area by oscillation and change of its cour…se.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 'Social Justice' and 'Reservation' are the words which have motivated the Indian society and politics right from the days of Independence of the country in August 1947 and the dream amply reflected in our polity and constitution as well to realise in days to come. Over the years and decades, the theme of… both-social justice and reservation evaporated gradually, becoming today merely a political slogan to gain political power in this multi-ethnic, multi-cultural nation whose only strength is its unity in diversity. In addition, the coming and expansion of globalisation from 1980s has exposed the inherent weaknesses of polity and its limited reach with vast opportunities but shrinking government jobs where reservation is to be applied for socially, economically and educationally disadvantageous groups. In the prevailing situation omnipresence of corruption, illiteracy and social divisions have put the justice everywhere in danger posing a challenge for the polity itself.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Sufism is in tune with Secularism. The founders of Sufis came from a mixed urban population and their ideals of tolerance were born out of their experience in interacting with people of other faiths. Sufism is an adoptive and universal creed. Sufis were far ahead of their time and accepted any faith into… their fold. Sufis advocated tolerance and encouraged interfaith harmony. Sufi mystics lived in multicultural societies and many of their followers were Sikhs, Hindus, or Muslims. Bulleh Shah breaks down the division between Hinduism and Islam to claim that all holy men belonged to the human order and should thus be embraced by all humans equally. Some of the Sufi writings have been liberally included in the holy book for Sikhs. One of the most interesting observations about Sufis is that they encouraged their disciples to separate politics and spirituality. Sufism decrees "that Mosque and State must be separated, but not in order to preserve the State, but in order to preserve religion or spirituality itself" (Sofia, ASufi Metamorphosis).

The present study Habitat, Economy and Society of the Kharias of Odisha is an attempt to understand the relationship between Kharia social organization and their habitat.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The Periya Puranam is a part of the large corpus of Shaiva canonical works. It was compiled by Sekkizhar, who was both poet and the Chief Minister in the court of the Chola King, Kulothunga II or AnabhayaCholan. The king himself was a staunch devotee of Lord Nataraja at Chidambaram. As minister Sekkizhar… had complete access to information on the lives of the Shaivite saints or Nayanmars. Sekkizhar used the data and put together the Periya Puranam. The epic was written in the Thousand Pillared Hall of the Chidambaram temple. Sekkizhar proved to be the best choice, as he was noted for his literary expressions and neutrality while interpreting sayings. His devotion to Lord Shiva and the 63 Nayanmars, was unparalleled and unquestionable. This book is a prose version of the lives of the 63 saints. It is a wonderful source for Tamilians and non-Tamilians alike seeking to know more about Shaivite saints and the meaning of devotion.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The concept of ecology and its role play an integral part in the development of culture and civilization of human beings. The Vedas and other Brahminical literatures universally acknowledged everything of nature which is embodied under the sun. The Vedas and other literatures deal with knowledge and the…knowledge covers both ecological and philosophical aspects of nature. The oldest and simplest form of nature-worship finds expression in Vedic texts. Many scholars have come to the conclusion that the Vedas are primarily concerned with cosmology, however, they are not in a position to show that Vedic cosmology has the solutions to the most difficult problems of modern cosmology. As Sanskrit literature is so wide we refer here mainly to Vedic texts, particularly the Vedic Samhitas, Upanishads and Epics for our study of ecological awareness. The living organisms can be grouped into three types those living mainly on land, in water and in air.

T…his book beautifully portrays the Theravada practices of the Tai Buddhist communities, viz, Phake, Khamti, Khamyang, Aiton, and Turung, living in Assam with a brief account of Buddhist philosophy and Buddhist history of Assam. The work is an outcome of the author's arduous research on these communities through the lens of Buddhist philosophy and practices.
