Soft cover. Zustand: New. Judaism is one of the first foreign religions to arrive in India. Unlike many parts of the world, the Jews lived in India without a single instance of persecution. The Jews came to India after expulsion from Iberia, under Spain in the 14th century.One group among the Kukis in Manipur and Mizos in Mizoram, in the northeast contend that they descend from the Israelite lost tribe of Manasseh, and hence the Bnei Menashe. The Cochin Jews claim to have arrived in India together with the Hebrew King Solomon's merchants. They first settled in Kodungallur (Cranganore) on the Malabar Coast and traded unstinted until 1524 when the Portuguese and the Moors attacked and destroyed the port. In Cochin, the Jews had to face the Muslim wrath, in the form of Tipu Sultan, and they stood with the Hindu king. The history of Mumbai would have never been so exotic if David Sassoon had not anchored there after a persecution in Iraq. Though the majority of Jews have left India, tales of a symbiotic relationship linger. This book, by eminent historian and editor Rama Chandran, is an attempt to chronicle the bonhomie the Jews in India enjoyed with the Hindu multitude.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. The modern world realizes that the common factor in Islam and communism is violence and authoritarianism in the name of humanism. But there have been many attempts to merge the two in an absurdity called Islamic Socialism. The practical applications of Islamic Socialism have a history going back to Muhammad and the first few Caliphates to modern political parties founded in the 1970s. Sadly, from its very inception, the Communist Party of India embraced the tenets of Islam and the paraphernalia of crime that came along with it. As a result, the Indian communists have even justified Hindu genocides committed by Islamic fundamentalists in Malabar and Bengal, using the jargon of class war. This book tells the story of the bonhomie of the Communist Party with Islam in the Indian context, with reference to the global humiliation the Party has faced so far.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. All monotheistic ideologies, including Islam and Marxism, have a tendency to create dictators. Specific characteristics of militancy in the world, such as kidnapping, taking hostages, demanding ransom and Jihad were contributed by Islam. India witnessed it during the Islamic conquest of the Sindh in the 8th century, attacks of Muhammad Ghori, and Mahmud Ghazni, and finally during the Mughal empire. Bakhtiyar Khalji destroyed the Nalanda University; Qutb Din Aibak constructed the victory pillar, Qutb Minar, destroying 27 temples. For Islam, the conquest of India and Hindus was Jihad. Since the events of September 11, 2001, Islam has faced criticism over its scriptures and teachings being claimed to be a significant source of terrorism and terrorist ideology. India had known it for several centuries, as a politico-religious phenomenon, rooted in militancy. This book by eminent academic, writer and Journalist Rama Chandran, chronicles the militancy, Islam has given birth to and groomed over centuries of strife and conquests. It begins at Mecca and ends in the conquest of Delhi. It is a must-read for peace lovers of all religions.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Eminent scholar and academic Dr K S Radhakrishnan's book, Epistemology and Aesthetics of the Mahabharata, is a philosophical study of the epic intended to expose its epistemological infrastructure and aesthetic content. The Vedic tradition has formulated a unique epistemology, which is different from the Eurocentric epistemology. The book successfully busts the myth propagated by Western scholars and their Indian counterparts that the Mahabharata is a gospel of war. It is a Gita of peace and harmony.
