        Biology and Breeding of Food Legumes

        by Geert Angenon, Ashwani K Basandrai, Judith Burstin, Steven B Cannon, S K Chaturvedi, H K Chaudhary, Percy Maruwa Chimwamurombe, Nazmul Haq, Manabu Ishitani, Shiv Kumar, Monika Lulsdorf, Michael Materne, Nobuko Ohmido, Klaus Oldach, Reid G Palmer, Marta Santalla, Jessica Schlueter, B B Singh, Mohar Singh, Carlos Roberto Spehar, Brijesh K Tiwari, Cenzig Toker, Rajeev K Varshney, Maria Wedzony, Asibuo James Yaw. Edited by Aditya Pratap, Jitendra Kumar.

        Food legumes are important constituents of human and animal nutrition, supplying high quality proteins crucial for a balanced diet. These crops also play an important role in low-input agricultural production systems by fixing atmospheric nitrogen. Despite systematic and continuous breeding efforts by legume researchers all over the world, substantial genetic gains have not been achieved. These issues require immediate attention, and overall, a paradigm shift is needed in breeding strategies to strengthen our traditional crop improvement programs. To this end, Biology and Breeding of Food Legumes provides extensive information on their history, origin, evolution and botany, as well as breeding objectives and procedures, nutritional improvement, industrial uses, post-harvest technology and recent developments made through biotechnological intervention.

        THE STREET

        A Novel

        by Hrishikes Bhattacharya

        She was abandoned at the Sealdah Railway station by her husband as she was barren. When Mashi sought help from the police they gang raped her. But she didn’t feel humiliated. Her husband had done worse. Over time she became the richest and most powerful woman of The Street! Your brethren you have treated with disrespect,You have denied them their simple human rights.You have made them stand and wait before you,And not given them a place in your affection.You must share with them all, their ignominy. This excerpt from the poem Apomanito by Rabindranath Tagore sums up how street children are shunned and abandoned by society in India. Even though we see them everywhere around us, we prefer to treat them as invisible beings. “Where he’ll be the next day or what he’ll do, I do not know, nor does he.” But Boomba and Toomba and many others like them exist—with their philosophy, their aspirations of life and love, their challenges, thrills and excitements. Is it time society began treating them like human beings?The Street goes beyond and explores the daily struggle for survival of street children, and the freedom they cherish and aspire.

        The Dancing Poet

        Rabindranath Tagore and Choreographies of Participation

        by Rimli Bhattacharya

        Drawing on a range of visual archives and personal collections, the book casts Rabindranath Tagore as the ‘Dancing Poet’ – in whom the contours of a pan-Indian diversity seek to merge, albeit selectively, with that of the world, eschewing most emphatically the territorial borders of the nation-state while reiterating ‘civilizational’ strands. The book outlines the contradictions and possibilities in such aspirations, central to the new cultural texts that Tagore seeks to produce in lyric, song, dance, image and sangeet. These are strategic juxtapositions that may yet yield new insights into our old debates on modernity. The locus of this work continues to be the performing woman and the creation of new publics. Dance is the great signifier in this exercise. In the idiom of performance-dance, attempts are made to resolve anxieties about the erotic, to sublimate sexuality, and new dimensions explored in multiple modes of physical culture. Masculinities, whose other need not be femininity, figure prominently in these narratives. Focusing on the first three decades of the twentieth century, the book evokes an international backdrop – of Europe, Asia and the Americas between the world wars – and movements, revolutionary and reactionary, whose thrust was on putting ‘the people’ centre stage. It takes as a comparative frame cultural fronts emerging in locations as disparate as Russia, Japan and Germany alongside movements in colonial India. Overall, it marks a period when experiments were being made to weave together the hitherto exclusive discourses of education, art and entertainment in self-consciously alternative locales, often with a founding guru at the centre of activities.

        The ‘Spring Thunder’ and Kolkata

        An epic story of courage and sacrifice 1965-72

        by Amit Bhattacharya

        The city of Kolkata was known as a city of processions and demonstrations until the ‘Spring Thunder’ crashed over Naxalbari in 1967. Since then, this historic city–shot down many a time–witnessed a saga of heroic struggles, undying revolutionary optimism and self-sacrifice. Inspired by Mao Tse-tung Thought and Charu Mazumdar, radical youth, students and workers rebelled against reaction to ‘make the ’70s the decade of Liberation’ in a way never seen before or after. This is the first modest attempt at writing the history of the city during that tumultuous phase. It includes rare photographs of activists, buildings and columns of importance and cover pages of original Party booklets and leaflets.

        Concepts of Grundtvig, Tagore, Gandhi and Freire

        by Bhattacharya, A.

        Yeats, the celebrated Irish poet said in his introduction to the book Gitanjali or Song Offering (1912) "...these prose translations from Rabindranath Tagore have stirred my blood as nothing has for years".The book received Nobel Prize in 1913. Ezra Pound said of the same work,"We have found our new Greece, suddenly.......I am not saying this hastily, nor in an emotional flurry, nor from a love of brandishing statement".This Bengali poet of India was founder of a University called Visva-Bharati, an institution founded on an Indian philosophy of education. Albert Einstein said of Gandhi,"generations to come, it may be, will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth". For Gandhi, too, the path of India's deliverence was through education. Their thoughts have been brought into a living interaction with the thoughts of Grundtvig, the innovator of Scandinavian Folk High School and Paulo Freire, the Rousseau of the twentieth century. This book provides a strong North-South, trans-contextual, anti-colonial dimension to adult education....... should be of interest to those engaged in post-colonial studies and comparative education.

        Advances in Crop Production and Climate Change

        by A.S. Yadav, Narendra Kumar, Sanjay Arora, D.S. Srivastava & Hemlata Pant

        In recent years India has made notable advances in the fisheries. Progresses made in refinements of vessels, new line materials and line-handling systems, preserving the catch, the availability of oceanographic-sensor equipments and the utilization of satellite technology to locate potential fishing grounds have greatly improved the fishing power of longline vessels. Post harvest technology of fish has evolved in the last one decade to a more energy-efficient, cost-effective, and quality upgrading technology. Since fresh fish can get spoiled very quickly, the development of technology for post-harvest preservation and methodology to convert fish to value added products have also become popular in recent times. Value addition helps in getting high price for the fishery products. There is a need to develop competent human resources in the field of post harvest management of fish and production of value added products from them. It is required to inculcate vocational and entrepreneurial skills in order to widen employment opportunities, particularly among rural youth and the disadvantaged sections of the society as well as to enable self employment.

        Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants

        Breeding and Biotechnology

        by Bidhan Roy & Asit Kumar Basu

        Abiotic stresses have become an integral part of crop production. One or other persist either in soil, water or in atmosphere. The information in the areas of injury and tolerant mechanisms, variability for tolerance, breeding and biotechnology for improvement of crop plants against abiotic stresses are lying unorganized in different articles of journals and edited books. This information is presented in this book in organized way with up-to-date citations, which will provide comprehensive literatures of recent advances. More emphasis has been given to elaborate the injury and tolerance mechanisms, and development of improved genotypes against stress environments. This book also deals with the plants symptoms of particular abiotic stress, reclamation of soil and crop/cropping pattern to over come the effect of adverse condition(s). Each has been laid out with systematic approaches to develop abiotic stress tolerant genotypes using biotechnological tools. Use of molecular markers in stress tolerance and development of transgenic also have been detailed. Air pollution and climate change are the hot topic of the days. Thus, the effect of air pollution and climate change on crop plants have been detailed in the final three chapters of this book. Under abiotic stress, plant produces a large quantity of free radicals (oxidants), which have been elaborated in a separate ‘Oxidative Stress. This book has been divided into seven major parts- physical stress (salt), water stresses (drought and waterlogging), temperature stresses (heat and cold), metal toxicities (aluminium, iron, cadmium, lead, nickel, chromium, copper, zinc etc) and non-metal toxicities (boron and arsenic), oxidative stress, and finally atmospheric stresses (air pollution, radiation and climate change). This book will be of greater use for the students and researchers, particularly Plant Breeders and Biotechnologists as well as the Botanists, to understand the injury and tolerance mechanisms, and subsequently improvement of crop genotypes for abiotic stresses.

        The Maoist Movement in India A Critical Study 1972-2014

        by AMIT BHATTACHARYA

        The Maoist movement in India is one of the longest surviving communist revolutionary movements in the history of the world. Born in 1967, has been able to withstand state brutality for so long and rose like a phoenix from the ashes time and again implies the existence of some deep-rooted socio-economic needs that the existing system has failed to satisfy. Today, every protest is identified with ‘Maoism’, every dissident voice is being branded by the powers-that-be and sections of the corporate media as ‘Maoist’. ‘Maoism’ in India has, for good or bad, been identified with the fight for dignity, justice and human values. This is a modest attempt at the first-ever comprehensive history of the movement made by a professional historian.  This movement is not the tale of’senseless violence,  but an epic story to create a beautiful world free from exploitation,  greed and bloodshed altogether.  Hitherto untapped material has been used to analyze the bitter struggle between MCC and CPI(MLI Party Unity and CPI(MLI People’s War and the formation of the CPI(Maoist).  Its impact on society,  culture and historical study,  Bhojpur struggle role of woman warriors with entirely new approaches to man-woman relationships radical mass organizations.  Emergence of Maoism and the pro-people development model in Dandakaranya have been discussed in detail.  This movement,  successful,  is likely to make a deep impression everywhere in India and abroad. A chapter on Primary Sources,  rare photographs of places–Naxalbari killing,  Charu Mazumdar’s residence,  of cover pages of forbidden literature and a list of departed woman activists further enriched the quality of the book. The main title of the book is borrowed from Karl Marx who hailed the Communards of Paris for daring to”Storm the Gates of Heaven”  in 1871.
