Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. In Amma's Healing Room is a compelling study of the life and thought of a female Muslim spiritual healer in Hyderabad, South India. Joyce Burkhalter Flueckiger describes Amma's practice as a form of vernacular Islam arising in a particular locality, one in which the boundaries between Islam, Hinduism, and Christianity are fluid. In the "healing room," Amma meets a diverse clientele that includes men and women, Muslim, Hindu, and Christian, of varied social backgrounds, who bring a wide range of physical, social, and psychological afflictions. Flueckiger collaborated closely with Amma and relates to her at different moments as daughter, disciple, and researcher. The result is a work of insight and compassion that challenges widely held views of religion and gender in India and reveals the creativity of a tradition often portrayed by Muslims and non-Muslims alike as singular and monolithic.…

"Why does philosophy give some people a headache, others a real buzz and yet others a feeling that it is subversive and dangerous? Why do a lot of people think philosophy is totally irrelevant? What is philosophy anyway? The ABCs of philosophy -- easy to understand but never simplistic. Beginning with basic questions posed by the ancient Greeks: What is the world made of? What is man? What is knowledge? What is good and evil? This guide traces the development of these questions as the key to understanding how western philosophy developed over the last 2,500 years.".

Emergence of Indian nationalism. 5. Early nationalism discontent and dissension. 6. The age of Gandhian politics. 7. Many voices of a nation. 8. Freedom with partition. Postscript. Appendix. Bibliography. Index. More than a survey and much more than a thematically arranged narrative From Plassey to Partition is an eminently readable account of the emergence of India as a nation. It maps a wide and often complicated terrain of historical happenings their main players in groups and as individuals and contexts that enable us to see the formation of a nation through documents of resistance and struggle assimilation and rejection. This story of India's nationhood and political coming of age is rich in empirical detail and accessible interpretation of facts therein. In its eight major divisions covering about two hundred years of political and socio economic turbulence the author retraces the steps of our nationalist longings. On the one hand it converses with students of Indian history and on the other it engages general and curious readers. Few books on this crucial period of history have captured the rhythms of India's polyphonic nationalism as From Plassey to Partition. 524 pp.…

Soft cover. Condition: New. Contents: Introduction. 1. The discoveries. 2. Analysis. 3. Discussion. 4. Afterword. Notes. "Archaeology has become implicated in the Ayodhya controversy. It has been claimed that archaeological evidence provides irrefutable proof of the existence of a Rama temple at the site of the Babri Masjid, and the destruction of this temple by Babur. The author uses standard archaeological procedures to question the claim. He examines the structural and artifactual evidence and analyses the stratigraphic information of B.B. Lal's excavations. Exploring possible alternative interpretations of the available data, he concludes that there was no temple of stone or brick lying below the mosque, and that there is no evidence of any act of destruction. "This is a defence of archaeology against its political misuse. A cautious examination of the archaeological evidence reveals a great deal about the working of communal politics. The archaeological discoveries which are supposed to prove the demolition of a Rama temple by Babur actually show no more than the logic of a politics which destroyed the Babri Masjid on 6 December 1992."No. 30112 74 pp.…
