From the Introduction : "Indian subcontinent with its tropical and monsoonal climate receives an average annual rainfall of 105cms, which is largest anywhere in the world for a country of a comparable size. This precipitation spread over the country along with melting of glacial snow of the Himalayas resulted in the formation of large perennial Himalayan rivers viz., the Indus, Ganges, Brahmaputra and other peninsular rivers viz., the Godavari, Krishna, Narmada, Tapti, Mahanadi, Cauveri originating from various mountain ranges and the Deccan plateau. These resulted in formation of 14 major rivers and several medium and minor rivers and innumerable streams which opens into the Bay of Bengal on the east coast and into the Arabian Sea on the west coast of India. "The confluence regions of the rivers with the sea forms a complex zone of aquatic ecosystem i.e. estuaries. The area and extent of estuarine region of each river depends on the season, freshwater drainage through the river and geographical nature of the coastal region at that point. Along with the estuaries many large lagoons such as Chilka, Pulicat, Ashtamudi, Vembanad and several vast structures of backwaters on east and west coast of India, created mixed water (brackish water) habitat, spread over in an area of approximately 7000 sq. kms.

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. This book is a devotee's reverent account of the life and mission of Sri Sathya Sai Baba. It chronicles the transformation of the parched hamlet of Puttaparthi into a model of community development, complete with its educational institutions, state-of-the-art hospitals, an airport and an expansive water scheme.

Contents, preface, 160pp., an excellent copy in paperback. "This volume is the first substantial collection in English of these Telugu poems, which still form part of the standard corpus of songs used by dancers in the classical south Indian style. In their preface the authors discuss the historical and cultural background to these poems, the traditions current about the poets and their place in south Indian literature, the attempts to contain the explicit eroticism of the songs by various apologetic and rationalizing devices and the nature and meaning of a devotionalism couched in this idiom of mercenary love."
