THERE is no cut and dried
formula for any individual or organisation’s success. When
conventional wisdom fails to deliver the goods one must think out of the
box. This is how trailblazers make their contribution in any given
field. Imagine a fish market setting new standards in management and
salesmanship! This book examines "the power of possibility"
and depicts the fishmongers of Pike Place Fish as exemplars of
extraordinary achievement because to be ordinary is ‘to be a victim of
circumstances, responding to whatever comes one’s way’. This book is
no mere pep talk but a well- argued guide to generating new and original
ideas with suitable examples. Wanna be a path-breaker? This book is for
you.
THE demographic and
economic structure of our nation is so complex that one needs a variety
of tools to cater to the development requirements of different segments.
It goes without saying that education is an indispensable developmental
tool. But not all can avail of the regular or conformable means of
education. Therefore, ISRO’s Developmental and Educational
Communication Unit mooted the idea of EDUSAT, a dedicated satellite for
education, which was launched on September 20, 2004. This book tells us
about the creative processes that led to the project’s Experiencing the Soul OUR preoccupation with soul and death is age-old. Both are vital ingredients of what Ellen Burstyn describes in the foreword as ‘non-material dimension of reality’. This book is being claimed as the result of its author’s "life-transforming" meditation. It dwells upon spiritualism and narrates experiences of people who have had spiritual awakening. This book also tries to elucidate the post-death continuation of consciousness. Divided into eight parts and 30 chapters, it deals comprehensively with the phenomenon called soul. This book is a readable mix of paranormal phenomena, philosophical observations, spiritual experiences and speculations regarding soul. |
