ON GLOBALIZATION
₨ 380In this pathbreaking new book, Soros not only identifies the problems but also puts forward practical proposals to make the system work better. In a thoughtful analysis of our existing international financial and trade institutions. Soros shows that while they aid wealth creation they fall short in providing other public goods. Soros deplores an unwitting coalition between market fundamentalists on the far Right and anriglobalization activists on the far Ieft bent on destroying the international institutions we have and calls for a different coalition that would work to reform and strengthen those institutions. The missing element, the centerpiece of the new architecture, is the use of Special Drawing Rights for the provision of development assistance and public goods on a global scale. In a powerful concluding chapter. Soros assesses the United States’ role in the world after September 11. The United States, he cautions, cannot secure its own prosperity and the safety of its people through the raw and unilateral exercise of power: peace and security can be won only through international cooperation. This book is at once a warning, a call to action, and a pointer to a more prosperous and peaceful future.

EARTHQUAKE DISASTERSPREVENTION AND RECONSTRUCTION
₨ 48,480This book explores practices and approaches on pre-disaster prevention and post-disaster reconstruction for vulnerable countries and areas enhancing earthquake disaster resilience.
Destructive earthquakes have frequently occurred in urban or rural areas around the world, causing severe damage on human societies. Pre-earthquake prevention and post-earthquake reconstruction effect the disaster resilience building and long-term development of the affected communities and areas. In recent years, researchers from around the world have made a lot of efforts to study on the theme ‘earthquake disaster prevention and reconstruction’.
The chapters in this edited volume contribute to the literature of earthquake disaster research from scientific, social and institutional aspects. These interdisciplinary studies mainly focus on human and policy dimensions of earthquake disaster, such as earthquake risk mitigation, social-physical resilience building, resilience capability assessment, healthcare surge capacity, house reconstruction, the roles of schools, households, civil societies and public participation in earthquake disaster prevention and reconstruction. The authors come from several counties, including China, Bangladesh, Iran, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, Denmark, and Indonesia, covering the cases from those countries prone to earthquakes.
These nine distinctive chapters have been elaborately selected and integrated from the international, ranked, peer-reviewed journal, Environmental Hazards.

UNDERSTANDING MACROECONOMIC THEORY
₨ 1,216At each point in time, individuals in an economy are making choices with respect to the acquisition, sale, and/or use of a variety of different goods. Such activity can be summarized by aggregate variables such as an economy’s total production of various goods and services, the aggregate level of unemployment, the general level of interest rates, and the overall level of prices. Macroeconomics is the study of movements in such economy wide variables as output, employment, and prices.
The focus of this book is on developing simple theoretical models that provide insight into the reasons for fluctuations in such aggregate variables. These models explore how shocks or “impulses” to the economy (e.g., changes to technology, the money supply, or government policy) impact individuals’ behaviour in specific markets and the resulting implications in terms of changes in aggregate variables.
This book will provide the reader with an in-depth understanding of standard theoretical models: Walrasian, Keynesian and Neoclassical. Understanding Macroeconomic Theory is written in a concise, accessible style and will be an indispensable tool for all students who wish to gain firm grounding in the complexities of macroeconomic theories.

PLAN B-2.0
₨ 5,228In this new edition, Lester Brown outlines a survival strategy for our early twenty-first century civilization.
The world faces numerous environmental trends of disruption and decline such as rising temperatures, falling water tables, shrinking forests, melting glaciers, collapsing fisheries, and rising sea levels. In “Plan B,” Lester R. Brown notes that in ignoring nature’s deadlines for dealing with these environmental issues, we risk the disruption of economic progress.
In addition to these environmental trends, the world faces the peaking of oil, the addition of 70 million people per year, a widening global economic divide, and the spread of international terrorism. The global scale and growing complexity of issues facing our fast-forward world have no precedent.

ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIOLOGY 2ND/ED
₨ 1,216This new edition of John Hannigan’s well-known and respected text has been thoroughly revised to reflect recent conceptual and empirical advances in environmental sociology. The book offers a distinctive and even-handed treatment of environmental issues and debates, integrating European theoretical contributions such as risk society and ecological modernization with North American empirical insights and findings. The key updates include: an extended discussion of how classic sociological theory relates to contemporary environmental sociology; a critical overview of contemporary interdisciplinary perspectives, namely co-constructionist theories of ‘socionature’; a focus on cultural sociologies of the environment, notably discourse analysis and social framing; updated coverage of the environmental justice movement and grassroots mobilizations; a review of the linkages between environmental sociology and the sociology of disasters; and, a brand new case history chapter on the escalating global conflict over freshwater resources.
Making a strong case for centrally incorporating power relations into a realist / constructionist model of environmental knowledge, politics and policy-making, this book includes a comparative analysis of the USA, Britain and Canada, and will prove a valuable student resource.
