This book explores inspirational entrepreneurial activities in the tourism industry of Ladakh, India. It particularly looks at ways to develop an entrepreneurial yet environment-friendly tourist destination. The book starts off with in-depth historical reflections of entrepreneurship and tourism in one of India’s fastest growing tourist destinations. Subsequently, the book studies the unique entrepreneurial challenges and opportunities in Ladakh’s extreme resource-scarcity and remote context based on empirical evidence from entrepreneurs and stakeholders in the tourism industry. In addition, a broad overview of contemporary entrepreneurial activities in the tourism industry in Ladakh is presented, underscoring the importance of indigenous knowledge and cultural traditions for developing sustainable tourism. Based on qualitative data analyses and literature reflections, this book provides scholars, students, professionals and policymakers an alternative view on entrepreneurial activities in the tourism industry of an ecologically jeopardized region.

Dental caries is a multifactorial disease that is extremely common and has been a significant public health issue for many years. Remineralisation is a technique used in modern dentistry to treat incipient caries lesions non-invasively in an effort to slow the progression of the disease and enhance appearance, sturdiness, and function. For the non-invasive management of dental caries, biomimetic methods to stabilise bioavailable calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ions and localise these ions to non-cavitated caries lesions for controlled remineralization show considerable promise. Hence, the purpose of this book is to provide knowledge about the various remineralizing agents aiming to treat early carious lesions.
