Cratons and Fold Belts of India, is a unique attempt at
presenting geological characteristics and evolution of the fold
belts and the cratonic areas of the Indian shield. The author has
evaluated the different evolutionary models for each fold belt in
light of all the currently available geological and
geochronological informations that are clearly listed.
Shortcomings, if any, of each model are stated and a viable
geodynamic model is presented for each fold belt. The book is
self-contained it includes an introduction to the processes of
mountain building, especially plate tectonics theory with its
application to the evolution of the Himalaya as an illustrative
example so that the reader can better appreciate the novel approach
to the evolution of Proterozoic fold belts. The author eschews a
detailed account of the fold belts for a clear description of all
the concepts that go into building models. It is primarily written
for graduate students, teachers and for those geoscientists who
aspire to know all about the Indian shield."
The Third Birth of Confucius deals with the Chinese sage and
philosopher Confucius and his philosophical and politico-cultural
legacies. As the title suggests, Confucius has once again taken
birth in China. Confucius 'died' for the first time when he gave
way to Buddhism in the tenth century, but was reinvented again
(Neo-Confucianism). This was the second birth of Confucius. In the
twentieth century, under the influence of western ideas, China's
liberals and Marxists abandoned Confucius again. But how long can a
civilization live without any ideational orientation? Hence, the
third birth of Confucius from AD 2000 onwards. Confucius is
emerging as a proxy word for cultural nationalism. In fact, it is
not one Confucius who is taking birth in China but two. One is the
common man's Confucius, which is authentic and genuine. The other
Confucius is promoted by the Chinese Government. The author
believes that soon either China will embrace democracy or it may
implode and disintegrate like the former Soviet Union. This book is
an attempt to unravel the muddled reality of China and will
definitely prove a landmark work in the field of Chinese Studies.

Self-proclaimed political pundits, who consistently spew out
nonsense about core issues in the United States and across the

News, is spread to the masses in today's political climate. We can

so that you, the reader, can have the tools necessary to combat
demagoguery and Fake News in all of its forms.
This volume of poetry is a collection of thoughts about humanity by
Dr Ram and Karyn. Karyns (Karishmanandas) first publication done
with her brother.
This book unifies Science (Physics & Cosmology) with vedantic
advait (monism) philosophies in a mutually consistent
'Science=Philosophy Symbiosis' with a paradigm shift in both.
Science supports existence of all-composing and all-pervading
chetan Paramatma God, Avishesh Brahm. Jagat (universe) is not
unreal mithya like the snake in a rope during dark but very much
real with all sorts of motions and changes mediated by three gunas
(sat, raj, tam). It is created from the Vishesh Brahm, which
generates from a fraction of the motionless, changeless, inactive
Avishesh Brahm. Avishesh-Vishesh Advait presents a unique and novel
science philosophy to review the Sankhya and Shankaracharya's
philosophies. The book has a lot for the serious reader. By
scientific definition an 'element', as our 'positrino' or
'negatrino' is itself non-composite but composes others. Every one
of five 'elements': earth, water, agni, vayu, akash described in
Shankaracharya's Tattwa Bodh is composed by all five hence none is
an element.
This book on Unified Theory is an update on the 1990 book 'Unified
Physical Theory', the 2002-book Realistic Foundations of Physics
& Cosmology and the 2010-book THE UNIFIED THEORY A complete
paradigm shift in Physics & Cosmology. In a paradigm shift the
Unified Theory singly presents the grandest ever 'unified'
replacement for the Relativity, Quantum, Quark-lepton, Higgs,
Electroweak, Supersymmetry, String & Big Bang theories. New
Priciple of Null Action replaces the Uncertainty Principle.
Findings of the 1990-Physics Nobel lauretaes and conclusions of
2011-Physics Nobel lauretaes are contested. The Universe does NOT
have accelerated expansion and will not end as an empty space.
Reader will be amused to count the number of Nobel laureates whose
work and thought have been correctingly commented on. This present
book will serve as a source to revise the syllabai and textbooks at
the University & College levels of Physics, Astrophysics,
Cosmology &c. Book is worth translation into major languages of
the world.
