Random Walks In Solitude Glimpses of Religion and Spirituality through the Eyes of Modern Science The ‘Random Walks in Solitude: Glimpses of Religion and Spirituality through the Eyes of Modern Science’ is a collection of articles published by the author since 2006 AD. The topics include some of the most complex and enigmatic subjects as ‘Concept of Prana’, ‘Universal Consciousness’, ‘Scientific basis of Samudra Manthan the Proverbial Churning of Cosmic Ocean’, ‘Lord Dattatreya’, ‘Ardha-Nari-Nateshwara’ and ‘Science behind ‘Yogic Samadhi’. While doing so, the author does not claim that his interpretations on some of these enigmatic concepts are exactly true, but in the absence of any serious attempt done so far, they feel refreshing and he has attempted to re-validate religion and spirituality on scientific logic and reasons. Otherwise, we as a community were just holding them dear to our hearts for thousands of years as fanciful stories. These concepts were conceived and described by our ancient ‘Rishis’ in native terminologies and language and since then, have remained a part of our psyche in our life. Today, as professional scientists, we need to re-look to these concepts afresh from modern scientific perspective, identify and correlate them with current scientifically analogous terminologies, without losing their original perceptive meaning, they conveyed to our minds. In this respect, the logical scientific interpretations of the concepts of ‘Soul’, ‘Rebirth’, ‘Work’ and the ‘Law of Karma’, published earlier by the author, have received considerable attention and appreciation. In the same spirit, the author hopes that the readers would find this book also equally interesting, innovative, refreshing and scientifically logical to realize the continued relevance of the ‘Sanatan Vedic Philosophy’ even in the twenty first century.

“There are not many books of this nature and kind in India on the history of scientific research coming straight from the participating scientist himself. In that sense the book-‘A Life of a physicist in agricultural research: A Professional autobiography’ by Professor Anil Vishnu Moharir makes a significant contribution in chronicling the work done by him in the Indian context. Efforts put in by Professor Moharir would motivate many young and bright students of physics to foray in the field of biology and agriculture for a satisfying career and opportunities for innovative and original research contribution to their credit”. – Dr. Vijay Digambar Garde, Ph.D. Moscow, Retd. General Manager, Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd., Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India. “The book in fact is a description of the research work done by the author himself in the field of agriculture, an area for which he had no formal education and training. It is interesting to read, how the author not only got his foothold but contributed in a significant way”. – Padmabhushan Prof. Dr. Ram Badan Singh, FNAAS, President, National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, DP Shastri Marg, New Delhi, India. “Your book falls in the category of ‘Professional Biography’. Very few Indians have attempted that. Your effort is therefore welcome. You have traced your research journey and career course so successfully completed in this well-articulated document. You have aptly described the institutional workings, lost opportunities due to myopic policies and wrong perceptions. It is amazing to see that you have moved from the main-stream physics and still contributed at the world class level in the allied but new fields”. – Prof. Vivek N. Patkar, Retd. Professor and a versatile freelance researcher, writer, author and promoter of science education, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. “Thank you very much for the reprint of your paper-‘Moisture Desorption and Absorption Isotherms for Seeds of Some Cultivars of Triticum aestivum and Triticum durum wheat’. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and even re-reading it. It does not happen often that one can read papers where the author is working at the cross-fertilizing the fields of plant science and physical chemistry. I do believe that your results will have profound implications in every agricultural discipline (not only in breeding), and for every crop that humans are cultivating for obtaining their foods. Up to now, I was more used to seeing and also measuring classical isotherms with water activity on the X-axis and moisture content on the Y-axis, and have the kinetic data separately presented. I like your presentation of ‘Normalized mass of seeds’ over time. Your concept of hysteresis area is very talkative, very expressive. No doubt that it will prove helpful to speed up and to improve plant breeding process”. – Dr. Luc De Bry, Ph.D., Head of Research Department, M/S Dannone Biscuits, Herental, Belgium

The first section of the book develops Solway's approach to literature, starting from the assumption that genuine criticism requires the intellectual freedom to range at will across the literary landscape rather than restricting one's direction based on what is current, fashionable, or politically correct. Solway argues that advocating a theoretical school - postmodernism, poststructuralism, semiotics, new historicism, Marxist revisionism, or queer theory - generally involves abandoning the real critical project, which is the discovery of one's own undetermined motives, dispositions, and interests as reflected in the secret mirrors embedded in literary texts. Instead Solway pursues what he calls elective criticism, writing that enables the critical writer to freely discover his or her own identity - a concept that he claims cannot reasonably be diluted, relinquished, or deconstructed. In the second section Solway practices what he preaches, exploring a wide range of authors and subjects. His essays include an analysis of Franz Kafka's The Trial as a Jewish joke, a personal memoir of Irving Layton, an interpretation of Erin Moure's "Pronouns on the Main," an examination of language in William Shakespeare's romances, a reading of Robert Browning's "My Last Duchess" that is sympathetic to the Duke, an assertion that James Joyce has more in common with the traditional novelist than with the professional, (post-)modern alienator, and an exploration of Jonathan Swift's sartorial imagery that contends that form is the source of substantive identity.

Time is running out. Mankind is on the verge of extinction caused by a mysterious occurrence known simply as "the Illness." Emma Bright, a criminal investigator for the only remaining government on earth, embarks on mankind's last criminal investigation with the hope of somehow linking the phony murder of history's greatest prophet, Günter Habsburg, to the apocalypse. However, there is one problem: "the Illness" has destroyed all of the evidence that ever existed. In her journey to solve the riddle of "the Illness," Emma unintentionally steps into a whirlwind of randomness and eventually learns, not only the purpose of her own life, but also the meaning of all life.

'A fabulous piece of writing . . . I recommend it unreservedly' WILLIAM DALRYMPLE 'A brilliant book' CHRISTINA LAMB, author of Farewell Kabul One of the first things I was told when I arrived in Kabul was never to walk... When journalist Taran Khan arrives in Kabul, she uncovers a place that defies her expectations. Her wanderings with other Kabulis reveal a fragile city in a state of flux: stricken by near-constant war, but flickering with the promise of peace; governed by age-old codes but experimenting with new modes of living. Her walks take her to the unvisited tombs of the dead, and to the land of the living - like the booksellers, archaeologists, film-makers and entrepreneurs who are remaking this 3,000-year-old city. And as NATO troops begin to withdraw from the country, Khan watches the cycle of transformation begin again. **Winner of the Stanford Dolman Travel Book of the Year Award 2021** **Winner of the Tata Literature Live First Book Award for Non-Fiction 2020** 'Powerfully evocative' Kapka Kassabova 'A wonderful journey' Atiq Rahimi 'Khan illuminates Kabul's life-affirming humanity' TLS

Most stories written about Africa focus on war and poverty, neglecting to show that Africa is a diverse continent with large cities and a growing middle class. Africa?s massive and expanding population is also diverse, so the stories in this book bring out that diversity by exploring complex themes and ideas. Random Walk: Modern African Stories presents six tales of adult fiction. The stories are independent and are set in different African towns and cities, including Cape Town, Johannesburg, Kinshasa, and Luanda. The story collection features Africans from all walks of life, and covers such themes as spiritualism, and HIV/AIDS and its socioeconomic impact. The book also surveys the issues of economic refugees, depression and other mental health issues, social networking, and love. These stories use fiction to create awareness about topical issues and could become an impetus to activism. Random Walk is entertaining with a healthy amount of humour. Today?s Africa is a compelling continent where modernity meets tradition, and prejudice and oppression meet freedom and equality.

Solitude has always had an ambivalent status: the capacity to enjoy being alone can make sociability bearable, but those predisposed to solitude are often viewed with suspicion or pity. Drawing on a wide array of literary and historical sources, David Vincent explores how people have conducted themselves in the absence of company over the last three centuries. He argues that the ambivalent nature of solitude became a prominent concern in the modern era. For intellectuals in the romantic age, solitude gave respite to citizens living in ever more complex modern societies. But while the search for solitude was seen as a symptom of modern life, it was also viewed as a dangerous pathology: a perceived renunciation of the world, which could lead to psychological disorder and anti-social behaviour. Vincent explores the successive attempts of religious authorities and political institutions to manage solitude, taking readers from the monastery to the prisoner’s cell, and explains how western society’s increasing secularism, urbanization and prosperity led to the development of new solitary pastimes at the same time as it made traditional forms of solitary communion, with God and with a pristine nature, impossible. At the dawn of the digital age, solitude has taken on new meanings, as physical isolation and intense sociability have become possible as never before. With the advent of a so-called loneliness epidemic, a proper historical understanding of the natural human desire to disengage from the world is more important than ever. The first full-length account of its subject, A History of Solitude will appeal to a wide general readership.

David Riesman’s The Lonely Crowd: A Study in the Changing American Character is one of the best-known books in the history of sociology – holding a mirror up to contemporary America and showing the nation its own character as it had never seen it before. Its success is a testament to Riesman’s mastery of one key critical thinking skill: interpretation. In critical thinking, interpretation focuses on understanding the meaning of evidence, and is frequently characterized by laying down clear definitions, and clarifying ideas and categories for the reader. All these processes are on full display in The Lonely Crowd – which, rather than seeking to challenge accepted wisdom or generate new ideas, provides incisive interpretations and definitions of ideas and data from a variety of sources. Above all, Riesman’s book is a work of categorization – a form of interpretation that can be vital to building and communicating systematic arguments. With the aid of his two co-authors (Nathan Glazer and Reuel Denney), he defined three cultural types that formed a perfect pattern for understanding mid-century American society and the changes it was undergoing. The clarity of the book’s definitions tapped directly into the zeitgeist of the 1950s, powering it to best-seller status and an audience that extended far beyond academia.

Ever since she turned eighteen and moved from an adolescent mental health ward to an adult one, Heather’s life has felt isolated and grey. She’d never attempt to suggest that climbing over the back fence of the hospital in the middle of the night is her sanest decision, but with a life that feels empty and a head full of memories that she doesn’t want to think about, she doesn’t feel like she has a choice. Heather is barely over the fence, however, when she meets Maeve. While, at first, Heather only allows Maeve to accompany her to keep the younger girl out of harm’s way, events soon lead to the lives of the two teenagers becoming increasingly entangled. As the night goes on, Heather is soon forced to consider who will be saving who.
