Conclusion- Agitation for a separate Gorkhaland for the Nepalese in India. Notes. Bibliography. "The study recounts, as this title indicates, the story of migration between India and Nepal from the early Buddhists Age till the late 20 Century. If in the early Buddhist period Buddhist monks and Jain priests moved to the Himalayan Kingdom as a safe refuge with these books and manuscripts to escape the Muslim atrocities, the 20 century movement of other classes of the people of Indian origin was in the wake of the invitation of the Rana government of the Kingdom. The Indians who thus gradually moved from U.P., Bengal, Bihar and Rajasthan came to command the majority of Nepal's population, while the hill tribes, the Sikhs, the Tibetans and the Bhutanese then living there constituted the minority. This migration from India was at once the movement of Indian people and that of Indian culture, religious thoughts and ideas. Such migration obviously led to the growth of Nepal's population of an Indian origin. It was, as it were, a development leading to a unique kind of synthetic 116 pp.…

Hardcover. Etat : As New. Contents Preface. Introduction. 1. Tribal development in India tribals associated problems and imperative needs. 2. Tribal development programmes undertaken. 3. Tribal development and life situation of the tribals an overview. 4. Participation of the tribals in the development programmes. 5. Empowerment of the tribals. 6. Development indicators. 7. Rituals and religion. Conclusion. References. The present work is an attempt to relate tribal development with grassroots democracy and the impact of development programmes on their life situation. This book explores the less developed area in the field of tribal development and tries to make a positive contribution to the theory of comparative political anthropology. It reveals the obstacles to the fulfillment of development programmes the pattern of politicization and socio economic mobilization of the tribals. The present study examines the hypotheses (1) Most of the beneficiaries are in poverty and ignorance. They are at the margin of survival. (2) Governmental and institutional measures to reconstruct rural economy and society have not changed the semi feudal semi capitalist rural power structure. (3) Successful community development consists largely of choosing those projects where the balance between conservatism and change is almost even and then trying to lighten the forces against change or to increase the factors making for change. 268 pp.…

Hardcover. Etat : As New. Contents Preface. 1. Mind reality and science. 2. What is consciousness. 3. The brain as the seat of consciousness. 4. The unity of consciousness and concept of the self. 5. The origin of consciousness the evolutionary approach. 6. The reductionist magic and Francis Crick's astonishing hypothesis. 7. Gerald Edelman's Universe of consciousness. 8.

Bibliography. Credits. Index. Alok Bhattacharyya's The Enigma of Consciousness is an incisive brilliant and perhaps the most comprehensive study of consciousness with a stunning range of topics that has ever been undertaken to answer these and other intriguing questions. Written in a lucid and impressive style with a rare clarity of approach the book chronicles the thoughts of the world's greatest minds on a perennial problem of philosophy and a current preoccupation of science since the times of the Upanishads and Plato. The author assembles a rich set of results from recent researches in the fields of neurobiology genetics palaeontology cognitive neuroscience artificial intelligence experimental psychology quantum physics and the new science of complexity and critically examines if scientific bootstrapping can indeed capture consciousness in its true element and unravel its mystery. He also takes the readers on a scintillating tour of the other world ruled by parapsychological phenomena occult practices and mystical experiences to explore if these extra ordinary phenomena lying outside the range of our everyday experience and beyond rational explanation can provide any new insight into the nature of consciousness. The object of the author in this book is not to show the fly the way out of the fly bottle but to inform the readers where exactly we stand at the turn of this new millennium in our attempt to find a solution to the old riddle of consciousness. In the author's view the nature of consciousness has proved too elusive to be encapsulated in any theoretical framework. Nevertheless as the author sees it with the best of cutting edge knowledge of the brain's function and its processes we have at least bettered our understanding of the puzzle of consciousness in the past few decades. 367 pp.…
