Hindu myths : a sourcebook translated from the sanskrit /

Recorded in sacred Sanskrit texts, including the Rig Veda
and the Mahabharata, Hindu Myths are thought to date back
as far as the tenth century BCE. Here in these seventy-
five seminal myths are the many incarnations of Vishnu,
who saves mankind from destruction, and the mischievous
child Krishna, alongside stories of the minor gods,
demons, rivers and animals including boars, buffalo,
serpents and monkeys. Immensely varied and bursting with
colour and life, they demonstrate the Hindu belief in the
limitless possibilities of the world - from the teeming
miracles of creation to the origins of the incarnation of
Death who eventually touches them all.

ISBN : 9788192196879.

This book explores the complexity of women-s decisions
with regard to family property in this context. It shows
that it is not ignorance of the law, naivete about wealth
or unthinking adherence to gender prescriptions that
guides women-s decisions, but rather an intricate
negotiation of kinship and an optimisation of
socioeconomic and emotional needs.

This book takes its readers into a -reflexive journey- of
understanding peace in South Asia, and the imperceptible
way through which religious and cultural dimensions
contribute to the peace building process. It also
unravels the unique patterns of common cultural practices
in the region to emphasize that the connect between
cultures can ever be a source of tension as well as
reward. In addition, it presents a fascinating account of
the origins and meaning of the concept of ahimsa in
Buddhism and Jainism, and looks at the practical examples
of ahimsa from India to highlight the diversity of peace,
non-violence and peace work that exist in the country.

xviii, 436p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9780415591171.

This Handbook examines the subject of energy security:
its definition, dimensions, ways to measure and index it,
and the complicating factors that are often overlooked.
It identifies varying definitions and dimensions of
energy security, including those that prioritize security
of supply and affordability alongside those that
emphasize availability, energy efficiency, trade,
environmental quality, and social and political
stewardship. It also explores the various metrics that
can be used to give energy security more coherence, and
also to enable it to be measured, including recent
attempts to measure energy security progress at the
national level, with a special emphasis placed on
countries within the Organization of Economic Cooperation
and Development (OECD), countries within Asia, and
industrialized countries worldwide.

This book analyzes the role of housing and its associated
mortgage financing as a key element of economic cycles.
The authors combine data from both laboratory and real
markets to provide insight into the bubble propensity of
real-world economic actors and use novel historical
analysis on the Great Recession, the Great Depression,
and all of the post-World War II recessions to establish
the critical roles of housing, private-capital
investment, and household and private institutional
balance sheets in economic cycles. They develop a model
that incorporates household balance sheets and bank
balance sheets and offers insights based on this analysis
concerning policy going forward, effectively changing the
way economists think about economic cycles.

535p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9780691161822.
346.40482 BAL 142625
This book explains why the copyright wars have always
been driven by a fundamental tension. Should copyright
assure authors and rights holders lasting claims, much
like conventional property rights, as in Continental
Europe? Or should copyright be primarily concerned with
giving consumers cheap and easy access to a shared
culture, as in Britain and America? The book describes
how the continental approach triumphed, dramatically
increasing the claims of rights holders. It also tells
the widely forgotten story of how America went from being
a leading copyright opponent and pirate in the eighteenth
and nineteenth centuries to become the world-s
intellectual property policeman in the late twentieth.

This book uses a comparative study of two of the most
important, India and South Africa, to reveal new insights
into managing climate change on a global scale.The book
provides a unique in-depth analysis of how these two
countries are dealing with climate change at both
national and province levels, from India-s advances in
solar and wind energy development to South Africa-s
efforts to introduce a carbon tax. Using the innovative
theoretical framework of climate knowledge systems, it
explores how people in India and South Africa engage with
one other, learn and act by forming communities of
practice. It identifies the drivers and barriers of
climate governance, showing how different forms of
scientific, technological, normative and pragmatic
knowledge can aid climate governance and analysing how
the underlying mind-set that guides climate action in
these countries is changing.

ISBN : 9780691147208.

Amazons--fierce warrior women dwelling on the fringes of
the known world--were the mythic archenemies of the
ancient Greeks. Heracles and Achilles displayed their
valor in duels with Amazon queens, and the Athenians
reveled in their victory over a powerful Amazon army. In
historical times, Cyrus of Persia, Alexander the Great,
and the Roman general Pompey tangled with Amazons. But
just who were these bold barbarian archers on horseback
who gloried in fighting, hunting, and sexual freedom?
Were Amazons real? In this book, the author presents the
Amazons as they have never been seen before. The author
tells how amazing new archaeological discoveries of
battle scarred female skeletons buried with their weapons
prove that women warriors were not merely figments of the
Greek imagination.
