Picture This! – Painting the Women's Movement

Picture This! – Painting the Women's Movement

Radhaben Garwa; Sushma Iyengar; Kalpana Sharma

From her home in a small village in the Kutch district of Gujarat, Dalit artist Radhaben Garwa has documented the rural women's movement in Western India and beyond through her drawings. Her images - more than two hundred of them gathered here - tell stories of the women from her village and from the Kutch Mahila Vikas Sangathan, the NGO she works with, in their campaigns for women's rights, economic empowerment, and resistance to globalizing corporations. In her sequences of pictures, Garwa illustrates such scenes as feminist gatherings against violence and discrimination, the encroachment of large corporations in farmlands, and what the world may look like to a poor woman in a village in India. With an afterword by leading feminist journalist Kalpana Sharma, this full-color compendium of an artist's work is a testament to the courage, wit, and wisdom of those involved in the Indian women's movement.
Approximate Analytical Methods for Solving Ordinary Differential Equations
Approximate Analytical Methods for Solving Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) is the first book to present all of the available approximate methods for solving ODEs, eliminating the need to wade through multiple books and articles. It covers both well-established techniques and recently developed procedures, including the classical series solution method, diverse perturbation methods, pioneering asymptotic methods, and the latest homotopy methods.The book is suitable not only for mathematicians and engineers but also for biologists, physicists, and economists. It gives a complete description of the methods without going deep into rigorous mathematical aspects. Detailed examples illustrate the application of the methods to solve real-world problems.The authors introduce the classical power series method for solving differential equations before moving on to asymptotic methods. They next show how perturbation methods are used to understand physical phenomena whose mathematical formulation involves a perturbation parameter and explain how the multiple-scale technique solves problems whose solution cannot be completely described on a single timescale. They then describe the Wentzel, Kramers, and Brillown (WKB) method that helps solve both problems that oscillate rapidly and problems that have a sudden change in the behavior of the solution function at a point in the interval. The book concludes with recent nonperturbation methods that provide solutions to a much wider class of problems and recent analytical methods based on the concept of homotopy of topology.
Wavelet Analysis with Applications to Image Processing

Wavelet Analysis with Applications to Image Processing

Lakshman Prasad; S. Sitharama Iyengar

CRC Press Inc
1997
sidottu
Wavelet analysis is among the newest additions to the arsenals of mathematicians, scientists, and engineers, and offers common solutions to diverse problems. However, students and professionals in some areas of engineering and science, intimidated by the mathematical background necessary to explore this subject, have been unable to use this powerful tool. The first book on the topic for readers with minimal mathematical backgrounds, Wavelet Analysis with Applications to Image Processing provides a thorough introduction to wavelets with applications in image processing. Unlike most other works on this subject, which are often collections of papers or research advances, this book offers students and researchers without an extensive math background a step-by-step introduction to the power of wavelet transforms and applications to image processing. The first four chapters introduce the basic topics of analysis that are vital to understanding the mathematics of wavelet transforms. Subsequent chapters build on the information presented earlier to cover the major themes of wavelet analysis and its applications to image processing. This is an ideal introduction to the subject for students, and a valuable reference guide for professionals working in image processing.
Mentoring Beyond AI

Mentoring Beyond AI

Quest Publishing

pokkari
This book not only covers the "tools of the trade" (mentoring how-to), it also examines mentoring's ancient origins since Homer's Odyssey, and peers into its future in virtual and outer space.Mentors are not born; they are mentees first and they evolve through trials and tribulations to success, to pass on their accumulated knowledge so the next generation can carry the torch yet farther. Such has been the experience of every known brilliant scientist in history. While they possessed the seeds of intellect and passion, they were nurtured to greatness by building on the wisdom and successes of others before them.Filled with the authors' case studies and anecdotes from contributors, this book explores how we humans learn and pass on wisdom to those that follow. It explores the "mentoring mindset" needed to retrieve and transfer knowledge to the willing ears of mentees as they reach beyond even our newest frontier that is artificial intelligence. Look for answers in the book to questions like these: How do mentees benefit from their mentors?What are the characteristics of a good mentor?How are bright minds enabled to realize breakthroughs?What are mentoring's origins and trends?

This book introduces comparative and international education (CIE) to new students of the field. Comparative and International Education surveys a spectrum of theories, methods, and practices for the benefit of both novice scholars and seasoned practitioners. It resourcefully explores comparative education’s successive historical phases, from its institutional heyday as “development education” in the 1960s to its emerging contemporary directions. A global field of unprecedented geopolitical extent across shifting spaces, comparative education is too complex to be captured by old dichotomies of development vs. underdevelopment. This book assembles a rich picture of the field’s many ways of knowing, scrutinizing education’s role in societies, and comparisons among national learning outcomes. It examinescontemporary reconfigurations, including education for sustainable development and our interdependent futures, and rethinks the spatial dimensions and the vocabularies we use in studying, researching, and comparing education internationally. We hope to open avenues for the teaching and study of education in its local and geopolitical context. Research topics are illustrated by case-studies from scholars in the field. This volume will help you discover how comparative and international education (CIE) in the 21st century is practiced and where it is heading.

IT And the East

IT And the East

James M. Popkin; Partha Iyengar

Harvard Business Review Press
2007
sidottu
The center of gravity in the technology world has shifted east. Today, India and China are churning out some of the world's best-trained computer science and electrical engineering graduates. In both countries, consumer classes and domestic markets for technology have ballooned. Western high-tech firms are increasingly sourcing their products' assembly from India and China and the innovation that drives those products. Meanwhile, indigenous Indian and Chinese companies are creating intellectual property and innovations that will compete with those same Western companies. In "IT and the East", James M. Popkin and Partha Iyengar examine the vital questions these developments raise: What's the long-term impact of high-tech outsourcing? How will innovation be managed in the future? Can Western firms compete in Asian markets while protecting key intellectual property? Will the innovation engine inexorably shift east? What would such a shift mean for Western countries currently driving innovation? The authors also discuss the emerging alliances between Indian and Chinese technology companies and outline the implications for Western businesses.Filled with extensive interviews with high-level executives, government officials, and academics from around the world, "IT and the East" is the first book to articulate the challenges that new business scenarios and capabilities in India and China pose for Western technology firms.

Yoga for a World Out of Balance

Yoga for a World Out of Balance

Michael Stone; B.K.S. Iyengar

Shambhala Publications Inc
2009
pokkari
Every aspect of our life has a part to play in the greater ecological system, Michael Stone explains in this book. How do we bring this large view to our yoga practice? According to Stone, our responsibility as human beings is to live in a sustainable and respectful way. He says two things need to change. First, we need to understand the relationship between our actions and the effects of our actions. Second, once we see the effect of our actions in the human and non-human world, we need practical skills for learning how to make changes. Using the five principles (yama) described in the Yoga-Sutra attributed to Patanjali, Michael Stone offers a basis for rethinking ethical action and the spiritual path.
