This book brings together a collection of articles from eminent
scholars and practitioners from India, Europe, the USA, and
Australia and investigates the applicability of spiritually
inspired business models in Indian and Western contexts. This book
is a tribute to the revered Indian management scholar and
philosopher Professor S. K. Chakraborty, a pioneer of human values
and Indian ethos in management. It explores the potentials and
pitfalls of spiritual-based leadership and provides directions for
renewing business education to embrace human values and
spirituality. The forty contributions in the book are divided into
seven sections-introduction; business ethics and management;
developing new organizational models and processes; potentials and
pitfalls of spirituality-based leadership; leaders and their world;
education, spirituality, and society; ways to go-to bring out
different aspects of the spirituality in business model endorsed by
Chakraborty. The book is a treasure trove for researchers of not
only business ethics, but also of leadership and strategy studies,
in addition to the organization professionals and the general
reader for expert insights on the topic.
The book is an exploration of the relevance of Indian classical
wisdom in reorienting modern management. It highlights the urgent
need for facilitating an internally directed spiritual dimension to
business management, including management education as an
alternative to instrumental rationality and extreme materialistic
orientation in today's profit-driven business world. The book
presents spirituality or enlightened consciousness as the essence
of a transformational or rather transcendental leader to improve
the quality of work-life within by creating a humane and enduring
organizational culture. It does this by drawing inspiration from
modern Indian leaders like Rabindranath Tagore and Swami
Vivekananda. It also offers insights into alternative sources and
methods of learning in management and life from ancient Indian
wisdom and selected European literature to infuse creativity, joy,
meaning and purpose into work and life. The book facilitates
East-West dialogue on value-based holistic management in a
globalized business scenario. In the modern business paradigm
dominated by western management principles and practices, the book
attempts to offer an Indian model of management founded on
spirituality, human values and sustainability to deal with the
alarming crises in a pandemic-stricken world by suggesting
alternative ways of thinking and living for a sane, happy and
sustainable future for both our planet and people.

This book provides a detailed introduction to organic radical
polymers and open-shell macromolecules. Functional macromolecules
have led to marked increases in a wide range of technologies, and
one of the fastest growing of these fields is that of organic
electronic materials and devices. To date, synthetic and organic
electronic device efforts have focused almost exclusively on
closed-shell polymers despite the promise of open-shell
macromolecules in myriad applications. This text represents the
first comprehensive review of the design, synthesis,
characterization, and device applications of open-shell polymers.
In particular, it will summarize the impressive synthetic and
device performance efforts that have been achieved with respect to
energy storage, energy conversion, magnetic, and spintronic
applications. By combining comprehensive reviews with a wealth of
informative figures, the text provides the reader with a complete
"molecules-to-modules" understanding of the state of the art in
open-shell macromolecules. Moreover, the monograph highlights
future directions for open-shell polymers in order to allow the
reader to be part of the community that continues to build the
field. In this way, the reader will gain a rapid understanding of
the field and will have a clear pathway to utilize these materials
in next-generation applications.
