This is the first full-length monograph to examine the history of colonial medicine in India from the perspective of veterinary health. The history of human health in the subcontinent has received a fair amount of attention in the last few decades, but nearly all existing texts have completely ignored the question of animal health. This book will not only fill this gap, but also provide fresh perspectives and insights that might challenge existing arguments.At the same time, this volume is a social history of cattle in India. Keeping the question of livestock at the centre, it explores a range of themes such as famines, agrarian relations, urbanisation, middle-class attitudes, caste formations etc. The overall aim is to integrate medical history with social history in a way that has not often been attempted.

लड़कपन अक्सर ऐसे कांड करा देता है जिसका प्रायश्चित आप जीवन भर नहीं कर सकते। रतन और रूबी के ऊपर जो भूत सवार था, वह उनसे यहीं करा रहा था। इस उम्र का प्रेम वास्तव में एक आकर्षण होता है जो विपरीत लिंग की ओर होना स्वभाविक है। इस उम्र के प्रेम की जो परिभाषा होती है, वह आकर्षण और वासना की परिभाषा के क़रीब-क़रीब समतुल्य होती है। जीवन का यह पड़ाव अपने साथ सागर की लहरों जैसा वेग लिए रहता है। इस वेग को तलाश होती है एक मजबूत तट की, एक किनारे की, जहां वह टकराकर स्वयं को स्थिरता प्रदान करता है। तट या किनारा न मिलने पर यह वेग अपने साथ कइयों को डुबा देता है। इस उम्र में एक अच्छे रहनुमा की भी आवश्यकता होती है जो यौवन के इस वेग को एक सही दिशा दे सके, वरना यह वेग अनुचित रास्ते की तलाश करने में जरा भी देर नहीं करता। रतन और रूबी के बीच अभी एक दूसरे के प्रेम का इजहार नहीं हुआ है। आमतौर पर गांव में प्रेम का इजहार होता भी नहीं है। ""जब पता सभी को सब कुछ है, इजहार-ए-तमन्ना क्या कीजै"" Ratan and Ruby are two school going teens of intermediate class of a village near Varanasi. Ratan fell into love with Ruby but the difference between their caste became the reason of their isolation. Ruby could not bear the shock and tried to end her life.The story reveals the critical problem of our society, customs, caste system etc. Saurabh Mishra has beautifully narrated the story with amusing characters. The story also presents the beautiful definition of current love and affection in a unique manner.

This book presents a novel approach to the history of science by moving beyond the traditional focus on scientific authorities, institutions, and informants. It argues that histories of science cannot be limited to the study of 'science' alone, but must also consider the formation of scientific subjectivities (suffused with emotions), which were neither pre-formed nor fixed. Examining how individual scientific perspectives were formed within the context of non-settler colonies, the author focuses specifically on the case of ornithology in India. He highlights the role of gender, particularly femininity, and the work of 'women of science,' an area that has received limited attention in colonial histories of science. Simultaneously, the book explores how gendered categories of masculinity and femininity were implicated in these practices and reformulated in the process. This book also examines the intersection between science and emotion. For example, the author explores the influence of loneliness, grief, arrogance, and racial superiority in attracting people to science and shaping their works. Drawing on concepts from the history of emotions, such as ‘emotional communities,’ ‘emotional clusters,’ and ‘emotional performances,’ the book highlights the fluid nature of emotional experiences within scientific practices. This interdisciplinary approach provides a comprehensive understanding of how emotional, gendered, and scientific subjectivities were entangled within a complex colonial context.
