This book is the first in our new series, Earth Ethics of Gandhi and Holy Mother Amma: Practical Applications. In this book, author Dr. P. Kamala Willey looks at Gandhi's principles, and how they are in practice today, even in her small hometown in rural North Eastern Connecticut. The first essay in this book provides a concise clarification of common doubts about Gandhi: his balanced rational view on vegetarianism, how "passive resistance" is anything but passive, and more. Dr. Willey continues with a refreshing interpretation fof Chaplin's history that includes the native American, and examines the development plans for her hometown in light of earth ethics. The second essay examines the Catholic Worker Movement, started by Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin, and it's essential principle of Radical Personalism. Amala Bharatam, perhaps the most ambitious sanitation project ever, is a project launched by Holy Mother Amma in India. It aims to rid India of the social lack of hygiene, to create an awareness of social cleanliness and to clean up all the trash in India. The ideals, principles, and practice of this in light of Earth Ethics is examined. Finally, Dr. P. Kamala Willey examines the role that education plays in maintaining the globalized structures that currently create ecological and social havoc. How can these structures be changed, supplanted with sustainable solutions? A collection of four enlightening essays dealing with environmental protection, community cohesion leading to worldwide localization, radical personalism, and educational reform, these essays bring a refreshing and progressive outlook. What does Gandhi have to do with a sleepy rural town in the Connecticut woods? Open the book to find out!

Penance is the closest English translation of the joyful, righteous and deep determination to know truth, recognised in India’s metaphysical treasure chest as tapas. This book is the second of our new series "Earth Ethics of M.K. Gandhi with Teachings from Holy Mother Amma: Practical Applications" In this beautiful book, Dr. P. Kamala Willey examines the power of the word, in many of the world's great faiths: including Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Native American belief systems, Judaism, Bahai, and modern science. The word is an extremely powerful tool, and the amazing similarities between various faiths regarding it's ethical use and guidance is something well worth studying. Examining the ethical role of speech for personal and societal reform, P.K. Willey, begins with a honest self-appraisal and goes on to find gems for the use of speech from the world’s great faiths, including a fascinating introduction to India’s mysterious science of sound and speech. An essential book for those seeking to learn more about world faiths, and the most positive and powerful use of the gift of speech.

William Shirer (1904-1993), a star foreign correspondent with the Chicago Tribune in the 1920s and ’30s, was a prominent member of what one contemporary observer described as an extraordinary band of American journalists, "some with the Midwest hayseed still in their hair," who gave their North American audiences a visceral sense of how Europe was spiralling into chaos and war. In 1937, Shirer left print journalism and became the first of the now legendary "Murrow boys," working as an on-air partner to the iconic CBS broadcaster Edward R. Murrow. With Shirer reporting from inside Nazi Germany and Murrow from blitz-ravaged London, the pair built CBS’s European news operation into the industry leader and, in the process, revolutionized broadcasting. But after the war ended, the Shirer-Murrow relationship shattered. Shirer lost his job and by 1950 found himself blacklisted as a supposed Communist sympathizer. After nearly a decade in the professional wilderness, he began work on The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Published in 1960, Shirer's magnum opus sold millions of copies and was hailed as the masterwork that would "ensure his reputation as long as humankind reads." Ken Cuthbertson's A Complex Fate is a thought-provoking, richly detailed biography of William Shirer. Written with the full cooperation of Shirer’s family, and generously illustrated with photographs, it introduces a new generation of readers to a supremely talented, complex writer, while placing into historical context some of the pivotal media developments of our time.

The reduction of inequalities within and between countries stands as a policy goal, and deserves to take centre stage in the design of the Sustainable Development Goals agreed during the Rio+20 Summit in 2012.The 2013 edition of A Planet for Life represents a unique international initiative grounded on conceptual and strategic thinking, and – most importantly – empirical experiments, conducted on five continents and touching on multiple realities. This unprecedented collection of works proposes a solid empirical approach, rather than an ideological one, to inform future debate.The case studies collected in this volume demonstrate the complexity of the new systems required to accommodate each country's specific economic, political and cultural realities. These systems combine technical, financial, legal, fiscal and organizational elements with a great deal of applied expertise, and are articulated within a clear, well-understood, growth- and job-generating development strategy.Inequality reduction does not occur by decree; neither does it automatically arise through economic growth, nor through policies that equalize incomes downward via ill conceived fiscal policies. Inequality reduction involves a collaborative effort that must motivate all concerned parties, one that constitutes a genuine political and social innovation, and one that often runs counter to prevailing political and economic forces.

'Good women should not claim a share in the inheritance, even if they have no brothers..' Notions such as this have, in their own way and over time, given the women in the Santal Parganas the resolve to wrest what is rightfully theirs. This is a powerful book in the way in which it unfolds the lives and anxieties of Santal women in two villages of Dumka district, Jharkhand. From the very inception, adivasi women come alive through separate life histories. They span different situations and social patterns but all of them relate to rights in landed property, and their own troubled identities in the backdrop of harsh living conditions, social discrimination and lack of state support. Land for the Santal women is not a mere economic resource. It stands for security, social position and identity, and in this men have a distinct advantage. Soon after, writing in a personal vein, the author unfolds how these anxieties of the Santal women resonate her own. The author traces the relationship between Santals and their land from historic times to the modern era when they have access to both the modern legal system and their own customary laws. She also examines the role of external agencies in this struggle - government administrative bodies, non-governmental organizations and political leaders. As modern influences crowd out traditional mores the author asserts that development is not always a benign process of social advancement but a highly political struggle for re-negotiating power relations between men and women, and among social groups. The use of a 'community' identity as adivasis has also been responsible for denying women rights to land in the context of the movement for political autonomy of Jharkhand. Based on rich ethnographic material, this sensitive book lays bare the reality of being an adivasi and an adivasi woman, in all its nuances, in the modern globalized world.
