This book discusses the significance of social geography, a multi-dimensional concept encompassing social health, social security and social ethos. It presents the socio-spatial dynamics of the population in India through an understanding of the various issues related to migration, urbanisation, unemployment, poverty and public health. With a thorough analysis of various social indicators relating to health, education, income and employment, the volume presents a detailed picture of the social geography of India. It discusses in detail, The origin, nature and scope of social geography, its relations with other social sciences and applications The nature and importance of social well-being along with welfare geography and the role of welfare state in ensuring social well-being The population of India and its attributes The status and spatial patterns of various social indicators relating to health, education and income and employment The composite indices which aggregate several social indicators such as the Human Development Index, Multidimensionally Poverty Index, Global Hunger Index, Gross National Happiness, Sustainable Developmental Goals Index and Freedom Index in the context of India. This comprehensive book will be useful for students, researchers and teachers of social geography, human geography, population geography, demography and sociology. The book can also be used by students preparing for exams like civil services, UPSC, PSC and other competitive exams.

Diagnostic ultrasound is a simple, noninvasive and innocuous technique that permits tissue interfaces to be detected and their shape and size described. The present project was planned to study the possible use of diagnostic ultrasound to assess the spontaneous lesions of testes and epididymides of rams and male goats. For this purpose, 10 normal organs and 28 organs with spontaneous lesions of testis and epididymis were collected from rams and male goats after slaughter. After manual palpation, these organs were imaged ultrasonically using a B-mode, real time ultrasound scanner, fitted with a 5.0 MHz convex array transducer. After ultrasound examination, each organ was dissected and the nature of the lesions and their contents, if any, was observed. Tissue samples from selected organs were processed for histopathological studies after staining with hematoxylin and eosin stain. There was no difference in the echotexture of normal testes and epididymides of both species i.e. rams and male goats.

The development of agriculture is utmost task in agriculturally dominated economies. The objective of agricultural development is to achieve socio-economic development. Present study is an attempt to assess the agriculture and socio-economic development of Rohilkhand. The study is based on a comprehensive field survey of thirty seven villages. It concentrate on land use classification of Rohilkhand to drive maximum benefits from each type of land whether agricultural or non-agricultural. Crop combination regions worked out keeping in view the importance of integrated assemblage of various crops. The crop-wise growth computed on the basis of linear regression. Agricultural productivity regions worked out to delineate the general pattern of productivity in the districts of the region. A causal relationship between the variables of agriculture and socio-economic development has been computed to know the regional imbalances. The levels of agriculture and socio-economic development worked out by using the Z score technique. This study examines what a situation is like and explaining how it got that way, and goes on to predict where it is going next and what should be done in response.

Matri (Lathyrus sativus) is a low cost and indigenous leguminous crop. we use matri protein isolate as protein source. Physico-chemical, sensory characteristics of infant formula were determined. The product was packed in polyethylene bags and stored at room temperature for a period of 90 days and analysis of the product were done at every 30 days interval. Statistical analysis revealed a non-significant effect of treatments and storage on moisture of infant formula. Statistical analysis revealed that storage had significant effect on the pH and acidity of infant formula, whereas treatment and their interaction effect were found to be significant. All the four treatments showed a significant difference for the pH values of infant for formula. Acidity of infant formula is 1.1 % at the start of the study which significantly up to 1.6 at 90 days of storage period. Statistical analysis revealed that the treatments had a non-significant effect on Protein, Fat, total sugars content and ash of infant formula. On the other hand, storage as well as the interaction between treatments and storage showed a non-significant effect on the all parameters content of infant formula.

In today's living environment there is a lot of progress and innovations in the discipline of Computer Graphics which was not so in the 1950s. As the field of graphics is extending day by day, we intended to write this book in a manner that beginners may benefit from it in all areas. We started off with a detailed introduction of the topic, tools used, hardware and software requirements. Followed by laying out a proper foundation for coding and the format of OpenGL syntax in particular. This book has been designed in such a manner that it may even serve as a hands-on manual for Computer Graphics students using OpenGL as a tool. By not only setting tasks and encouraging the beginners to execute it in order to get the appropriate results as given in the book, but also providing them with a complete set of codes which they may use or alter as per their requirements. Different algorithms have been included in the book, to help the reader understand the logical and mathematical concepts and their implementation behind each code.

We need security and shelter within art's four walls When some tragedy and despair in one's life befalls. Where real life at times can seem so harsh and cold, Allow art, with its dimensions, to embrace and hold. When art touches life we are left with questions and very few concrete answers. Why do we live? Why do we die? Why do we invent? Why is the world as it is? What would our lives be like in an ideal world? For years, poets, artists and great thinkers have pontificated on these questions and others, and this rich, vivid collection of poetry offers fresh considerations of the myriad possible answers.
