The Nobel Prize, according to the will of its founder Alfred Nobel,
are awarded to persons for their services in the field of
chemistry, physics, medicine and physiology, literature and peace.
The Economic Sciences Prize was introduced by the Swedish Bank and
first awarded in 1969. Till 1964, fourteen Indians - Aga Khan III,
Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh, Hari Mohan Banerjee, Sanjib Kumar
Chaudhuri, Benegal Narsing Rau, Rajah Bhushanman Manikam, Mahesh
Prasad Varma alias His Holiness Bal Brahmachari, Maharishi Mahesh
Yogi, Acharya Vinoba Bhave, Mehar Chand Davar, Sri Aurobindo Ghose,
Jawaharlal Nehru, Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan and Mahatma Gandhi -
were nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. An apostle of non-violent
struggle and a crusader against colonialism and inequality Mohandas
Karamchand Gandhi (popularly known as Mahatma Gandhi) was a much
revered world figure. Between 1924 and 1948, in nearly 100
nominations (individual or joint) he was proposed for the Nobel
Peace Prize. And yet despite international support, Gandhi was
never a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Why was it so? Was it
the fault of the Nobel Committee? Perhaps his associates made
mistakes? In order to answer such questions, the nomination
letters, newspaper cuttings, reports of the experts' of the Nobel
Committee, confidential record of the Committee, and other
unpublished documents were consulted from the Archives of the Peace
Prize Institute. The results are discussed and analysed in this
volume. Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or

Within a context of rapid technological change and shifting market
conditions, the education system is challenged with providing
increased educational opportunities without increased budgets. Many
educational institutions are answering this challenge by developing
distance education programs. At its most basic level, distance
education takes place when a teacher and student(s) are separated
by physical distance, and technology (i.e., voice, video, data, and
print), often in concert with face-to-face communication, is used
to bridge the instructional gap. These types of programs can
provide adults with a second chance at a college education, reach
those disadvantaged by limited time, distance or physical
disability, and update the knowledge base of workers at their
places of employment. Internet usages make learning simple and easy
to learn and interesting among students to their subjects. It
controls and changes the behaviour in a way to make education
process more scientific and interesting and also helps in achieving
the objectives of the education its utility in information
retrieval and communication in the distance education.
Rajinder Singh Bedi: Selected Short Stories curates some of the
best work by the Urdu writer, whose contribution to Urdu fiction
makes him a pivotal force within modern Indian literature. Born in
Sialkot, Punjab, Rajinder Singh Bedi (1915-1984) lived many
lives-as a student and postmaster in Lahore, a venerated
screenwriter for popular Hindi films and a winner of both the
Sahitya Akademi as well as the Filmfare awards. Considered one of
the prominent progressive writers of modern Urdu fiction, Bedi was
an architect of contemporary Urdu writing along with leading lights
such as Munshi Premchand and Saadat Hasan Manto. Written between
1940 and 1975, the fifteen short stories included in this
collection comprise favorites like 'Garam Coat' (Woollen Coat),
'Lajwanti', 'Apne Dukh Mujhe De Do' (Give Me Your Sorrows), 'Rahman
ke Joote' (Rahman's Shoes) and others. Bedi's stories dissect human
emotions with grim precision as he navigates the everyday lives of
men and women, exposing social inequities and economic problems.
