6 Paul, Samuel
The Paradox of India-s North-South divide : lessons from
the states and regions / Samuel Paul and Kala Seetharam
Sridhar.-- Los Angeles: SAGE Publications, 2015.
X, 235p. , 22cm.
ISBN : 9789351501411.
338.9542009051 PAU 145124
This book examines the socio-economic and political
scenario of India-s southern states vis-a-vis their
northern counterparts. Exploring the paradox behind the
underlying North-South divide in India, it reveals that
the gap was much smaller at the outset, with the North
having had a head start in certain areas. It goes on to
establish that although the South was somewhat better
placed in terms of initial conditions, it was the post-
liberalization era that saw it realizing this potential
and surging forward.

xvii, 443p. , 22cm.
ISBN : 9789351503248.
382.45 MUK 145125
A comprehensive assessment of how trade complementarities
and agreements help facilitate trade in services between
India and the European Union A first of its kind, it
addresses policy initiatives on services trade between
two economies that are actively engaged in trade
agreements. It establishes that the Broad Based Trade and
Investment Agreement (BTIA), if signed, will be India-s
first agreement with a major advanced regional bloc and a
major trading partner, and the EU-s first agreement with
a large emerging market. It is, therefore, likely to have
a far-reaching impact on other large trading nations such
as the United States and China.

The Growth director-s secret : why businesses struggle to
grow - and what can you do to change it / Andrew Brent.--
London: Bloomsbury, 2017.
x, 236p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9781472936295.
658.8 BRE 145074
Growth can be the most important attribute that any
business can have, and yet is commonly the least well-
managed area of a business- operations. Explaining why
this is, The Growth Director-s Secret examines the
structural/cultural factors that hold many conventionally
organized companies back. The book explores important new
insights from neurological research, which reveal near-
universal misunderstandings about consumer motivations,
shopping behaviour and brand choice. Andy Brent shows how
these flaws lead many businesses to develop bland,
undifferentiated consumer propositions and wasteful
commercial/marketing plans, which condemn them to year
upon year of stagnant growth.

stuffing and link-building, in fact, using those tactics
today gets your page shuffled to the bottom of the heap.
Quality content is the key to success and you already
have the ingredients in-house. This book shows you how to
structure an effective content strategy using the same
proven principles that have revolutionized marketing for
all types of businesses, across industries.

This book focuses on service design, including retail and
multi-channel marketing matters pertinent to the current
age, where physical contact with consumers has resurfaced
as an enduring part of the marketing and branding
landscape -- complementary to online and virtual worlds.
The span of the text goes from what may be regarded as
micro-environmental issues of type design and the
semiotics of brand meanings towards macro-environmental
concerns of city design and ecological threat, all
relative to living within any world (and all worlds) that
businesses and consumers may co-create or are invited and
welcomed to in their own multi-layered experience.
