How can America get back to an energy transition that's good for the economy and the environment? That's the question at the heart of this eye-opening and richly informative dissection of the Trump administration's energy policy. The policy was ardently pro-fossil fuel and ferociously anti-regulation, implemented by manipulating science and economic analysis, putting oil and gas insiders at the helm of environmental agencies, and hacking away at democratic norms that once enjoyed bipartisan support. The impacts on the nation's health, economy, and environment were - as this book carefully demonstrates - dire. But the damage can be reversed. Ordinary Americans, civil society groups, environmental professionals, and politicians at every level all have parts to play in making sure the needed energy transition leaves no one behind. This compelling book will appeal to course instructors and students, government and industry officials, activists and journalists, and everyone concerned about the nation's future.

To study the antioxidative, antitumor and immunomodulatory activity of protein fractions of leaves of Cynodon dactylon and Terminalia catappa on Swiss albino mice. The protein fractions were administered intraperitoneally in mice. The antioxidative and antitumor activity were analysed by liver marker enzymes, enzymic and nonenzymic antioxidants, lipid peroxidation and histological status of liver. The assessment of immunomodulatory activity on humoral and cell mediated immunity were studied by lymphoid organ weight, total leukocyte count, neutrophil adhesion, phagocytic index, antibody titre and protein profile. The results of the study suggested the antioxidative efficacy by enhancing the antioxidative enzymic and non enzymic status, antilipidperoxidative role by inhibiting the lipid peroxide status, antitumorigenic against ELA tumor by increasing the ILS and immunostimulatory against the pyrogallol by the enhancement of the humoral and cell mediated immune responses by the administration of C. dactylonPF and T. catappaPF. Thus Cdpf and Tcpf could be exploited as an antioxidative, antitumorigenic and immunostimulatory agents to combat the oxidative degenerative diseases.

Shanti : Indisk och bengalisk mat på riktigt

En kokbok sprungen ur bengalisk matkultur av mannen som tagit den till Sverige, Nahid Hassan. Hans mat kännetecknas av att den är autentisk, kryddig, mustig och värmande. Med fräscha råvaror som lamm, kyckling, fisk och massor av grönt har det bengaliska köket gjort sitt segertåg över världen och är det som serveras på de flesta indiska restauranger – ofta lagad av kockar från Bangladesh. I Bangladesh växer kryddor vilt, risfälten är bördiga och Bengaliska viken full av fisk. Matkulturen bär också på mycket historia. I landet korsas handelsvägar mellan väst och öst. Köpmän och erövrare har passerat under årtusenden och burit med sig matinfluenser. Kunskapen har inte stannat hos de högsta klasserna utan spritt sig i hela samhället, vilket skapat en befolkning med höga krav på smaker, samtidigt som den utbredda fattigdomen tvingat folk att göra underverk av ris, potatis, fisk och lök. I den här boken får du veta allt du behöver för att laga indisk och bengalisk mat på det rätta sättet – det vill säga som en äkta bangladeshier! Här samsas smårätter med rejälare rätter av lamm, kyckling, fisk, skaldjur och förstås mängder av gröna rätter. Och misti, det vill säga sötsaker och drinkar, liksom en klassisk bengalisk nyårsmeny.

2016 में ए.एस दुलत और दुर्रानी के बीच समान धरातल तराशने के लिए वार्ताओं की श्रंखला चली। इनमें से एक रॉ के पूर्व प्रमुख थे, जो भारत की बाह्य ख़ुफ़िया एजेंसी है और दूसरे थे इसके पाकिस्तान समकक्ष आईएसआई के प्रमुख। चूंकि ये दोनों अपने देश में मुलाकात नहीं कर सकते थे, इसीलिए पत्रकार आदित्य सिन्हा द्वारा निर्देशित यह बातचीत इस्तांबुल, बैंकॉक और काठमांडू जैसे शहरों में हुई। वार्ता के मुद्दों में दक्षिण एशिया को लंबे समय से झकझोरने वाले टकराव के बिंदु शामिल थे, जिसके कारण जान-माल का नुकसान होता रहा है। यह दो जासूस प्रमुखों के नज़रिये से देखे गए उपमहाद्वीप की राजनीति के गहरे अन्वेषण जैसा था। वार्ता में कश्मीर और शांति के गंवाए हुए मौके, हाफ़िज़ सईद और 26 /11, कुलभूषण जाधव, सर्जिकल स्ट्राइक, ओसामा बिन लादेन संबंधी सौदेबाज़ी, भारत पकिस्तान के संबन्धों में अमेरिका और रूस का प्रभाव और कैसे आतंकवादी इन दो एशियाई देशों की वार्ता की कोशिशों को विफल कर देता है, जैसे विषय शामिल थे। जब यह बातचीत पहली बार आरंभ हुई, जनरल दुर्रानी ने हँसते हुए कहा कि कोई भी इस पर भरोसा नहीं करेगा, भले ही इसे फिक्शन क्यों न मान लिया जाए। बेचैनी से भरे रिश्तों के बीच दो जासूसी एजेंसियों के पूर्व प्रमुखों के बीच हुई बातचीत से - जो कि अपनी तरह का पहला प्रयास है - कुछ सवालों के जवाब मिल सकते हैं।
Drawing on ten years of ethnographic research, two hundred fifty interviews, and over three hundred youth love letters, author Shanti Parikh uses lively vignettes to provide a rare window into young people's heterosexual desires and practices in Uganda. In chapters entitled ""Unbreak my heart,"" ""I miss you like a desert missing rain,"" and ""You're just playing with my head,"" she invites readers into the world of secret longings, disappointments, and anxieties of young Ugandans as they grapple with everyday difficulties while creatively imagining romantic futures and possibilities.Parikh also examines the unintended consequences of Uganda's aggressive HIV campaigns that thrust sexuality and anxieties about it into the public sphere. In a context of economic precarity and generational tension that constantly complicates young people's notions of consumption-based romance, communities experience the dilemmas of protecting and policing young people from reputational and health dangers of sexual activity. ""They arrested me for loving a school girl"" is the title of a chapter on controlling delinquent daughters and punishing defiant boyfriends for attempting to undermine patriarchal authority by asserting their adolescent romantic agency. Sex education programs struggle between risk and pleasure amidst morally charged debates among international donors and community elders, transforming the youthful female body into a platform for public critique and concern. The many sides of this research constitute an eloquently executed critical anthropology of intervention.
