"Jeyamohan is one of India's most resourceful makers of literary art" PANKAJ MISHRA Our understanding of contemporary India is incomplete without reading Jeyamohan" VIVEK SHANBHAG, author of Ghachar Ghochar The year is 1878 and the south of India is in the grip of a devastating famine.Aiden Byrne, an Irish police officer and loyal servant to the Crown, encounters two laborers being brutally whipped by the roadside. Their tormentor is an overseer from the Tudor Ice Company, where mammoth blocks of ice, harvested from frozen New England lakes, are broken down for British banquets by workers from the lowest rung of the caste system.When those same laborers are found murdered, Aiden and Kathavarayan, a charismatic young activist, set out on a journey that brings them face-to-face with the bloody toll of the famine raging through the country. Once so fearless in this heat-blasted land, Aiden will now be forced to grapple with his own precarious role in the machinery of empire.A vivid reimagining of the first labor uprising in modern Indian history, White Elephant is a soul-searing novel by one of India's greatest living writers, offering a stirring, indelible argument against the pitiless march and corrupting influence of empire.Translated from the Tamil by Priyamvada Ramkumar

White Elephant

Indecision is a fact of life.We can't decide what film to watch, dinner to make or wine to buy. We hesitate before committing to romantic relationships and then again before breaking up. We worry about how best to invest our money, time, and energy. In contrast, we admire those individuals who can make quick decisions and stick to them with ease.But what if the line we've been sold - that indecision is bad, unhelpful, weak - is wrong?In this ground-breaking book, two leading psychologists upend the traditional decision mindset and reveal the hidden benefits of staying undecided. Drawing on the latest neuroscience and a wealth of examples from current affairs, history and popular culture, Ophelia Deroy and Bahador Bahrami provide fresh insight on everything from online dating and parenting to the gig economy and the way we vote. In so doing, they reveal that our obsession with decision-making does us more harm than good. Offering a radical, and often counterintuitive, new perspective on our everyday predicaments, Indecision encourages us to cultivate the power of an unresolved mind for happier, healthier lives.

Finance for Beginners

A revelatory financial history showing that today's massive Islamic finance industry was preceded by decades of Muslim interest banking across Eurasia and Africa. Since the 1970s, the now multi-trillion-dollar Islamic finance industry has offered interest-free banking to Muslims around the world. Its proponents maintain that Islamic law strictly forbids all forms of financial interest. Many academic accounts echo this perspective, assuming that before the 1970s, Muslims either avoided interest banking out of deep-seated religious hostility or practiced it in defiance of religious stricture. Yet as Michael O'Sullivan argues, these narratives overlook rich traditions of Muslim interest banking that preceded Islamic finance. In the early twentieth century, the first modern Muslim-owned interest banks appeared across Eurasia and Africa-from India to the Ottoman Empire, Tsarist Russia, Habsburg Bosnia, Tunisia, Egypt, Iran, Palestine, and Indonesia. Viewed as a solution to Muslim economic distress, these banks intensified debates among Muslims about both the Islamic legal tradition and acceptable economic practices. While interest banks raised suspicions among some Islamic legal scholars, others explicitly defended their legality and encouraged Muslim entrepreneurs. Ultimately, O'Sullivan shows that the Islamic finance industry's commitment to interest-free banking was a product of contingency as much as principle. It was a combination of bank failures, high rates of indebtedness, and changing religious interpretations that eventually led many Muslims to reject interest banking and demand a replacement more commensurate with an "Islamic economy." Even so, the religious debates inaugurated by the first Muslim interest banks persist to this day. A vibrant portrait of economic life in the so-called peripheries of capital, The Borrower's Refuge is a major contribution to the global history of finance.

Muslim Interest Banking Before Islamic Finance

The Borrower’s Refuge

Warum Homo bestialis und Homo culturalis sich die Hand reichen müssenGibt es eine universelle menschliche Natur? Wie frei und vernunftbasiert ist unser Handeln wirklich? Bestsellerautorin und Biologin Meike Stoverock widmet sich der hochaktuellen Frage nach den Grenzen des freien Willens. In 'Human Nature' erkundet sie die Möglichkeiten, die in einem tieferen Verständnis menschlichen Verhaltens liegen - und zeigt, wie wir die Erkenntnisse für notwendigen gesellschaftlichen Wandel nutzen können.Eigentlich leben wir doch in einem Zeitalter der Vernunft: Wir verfügen über mehr Wissen als je zuvor und unsere Zukunftsmodelle werden immer genauer. Und doch scheinen wir als Gesellschaft auf der Stelle zu treten - der Klimawandel schreitet weiter voran, die Kluft zwischen Arm und Reich wächst, der Populismus ist weltweit auf dem Vormarsch und zur Gendergerechtigkeit ist es auch noch ein weiter Weg. Gesellschaftlicher Fortschritt lässt sich nicht allein durch gute Argumente und ausgeklügelte Studien, also auf rationaler Ebene, forcieren. In "Human Nature" zeigt Meike Stoverock auf beeindruckend klare Weise, dass biologische Einflüsse im gesellschaftlichen Diskurs viel stärker in den Fokus rücken müssen. Denn es gilt: Freie Entscheidungen und vernünftiges Handeln gibt es nur im Rahmen physischer Grenzen und psychologischer Selbsterkenntnis. Meike Stoverock löst den vermeintlichen Widerspruch zwischen Gefühl und Verstand auf und eröffnet so völlig neue Zukunftsperspektiven.

Hart Studies in Constitutional Theory

This book provides a novel judicial framework for receiving and considering religious and cultural claims in shaping human rights in constitutional secular democracies. It does this through an extended case study of the Indian constitutional jurisprudence. Abortion and surrogacy, LGBTQ + rights, sex work and euthanasia are arguably the most controversial human rights issues of our time. They all invite passionate religious and cultural debate but are not themselves religious or cultural rights issues. Instead, they pose a fundamental constitutional question: How far can religion and culture go in shaping general human rights in secular constitutional democracies? Moving beyond the logic of individual rights, this book provides an integrated and holistic approach to answering this classic question of constitutional law. To do this, it proposes an innovative empirically backed normative-theoretical framework which synthesises insights from cultural psychoanalysis, feminist legal scholarship, socio-legal method, constitutional law, evidence law, and political theory. It looks at a unique constellation of cases belonging to eight different human rights themes covering the period since India's independence in 1947 and systematically analyses the religious and cultural claims made in those cases. It finds that in India, a more holistic approach to answering our classic constitutional puzzle requires a simultaneous consideration of three different theories: A theory of constitutional interpretation which formulates restrictions on a judge considering religious and cultural claims in fundamental rights cases; A theory of judicial notice which determines when such claims can be admitted without proof; A theory of secularism and public reason which argues that the claims must be given weight in the final decision only if they match defensible conceptions of constitutional values. The book develops these theories and applies them to the Indian cases, providing an innovative approach to an age-old question.

Clozapine as the Gold Standard: A Story of Hope for Patients, Families and Clinicians is a fascinating look at the convoluted development and clinical journey of clozapine, and a compelling argument for greater accessibility for millions of patients worldwide likely to benefit from this highly effective antipsychotic and suicide prevention medication. It is about hope, perseverance and the continuing fight to bring this often life-changing drug to those who need it.The book is written by two key figures in the clozapine saga: the researcher who developed it for US release and a psychiatrist who early advocated for its use. Vivid case vignettes illustrate real-life struggles by patients and families against the terrible scourge of severe mental illness, and their often-frustrated efforts to get meaningful help. It explains the need for clozapine, the barriers to and hope for effective treatment-the good, sometimes the bad and occasionally the ugly-in terms everyone can understand. It bridges the gap between patients and families and the doctors who must make every effort to offer those patients the most effective treatment available.This book should help huge numbers of patients and every mental health professional and clinical trainee who doesn't know the whole story. It is for anyone who cares about the struggle of those living with schizophrenia or a similar disorder - loved ones, mental health advocates, clinicians, and patients.

A Story of Hope for Patients, Families and Clinicians

Clozapine as the Gold Standard

This textbook specifically focuses on sociological theories of development for upper undergraduate students of sociology, international development studies, South Asian studies, and related courses. From social evolution to neoliberal modernity, the authors systematically apply globally recognized theories to the unique realities of South Asia, providing readers with a nuanced and in-depth understanding of the region's developmental challenges and opportunities. Covering theorists from Auguste Comte to Amartya Sen, this textbook not only critiques prevailing theories but also offers an indispensable case study of South Asia to bridge the gap between theoretical discourse and practical application. Based on the authors' own course, the content and structure of the book, including Learning Objectives, Multiple Choice Questions, and Review Questions with answers, has proved effective in teaching the sociology of development, specifically in the context of low- and middle-income countries.

Sociological Theories of Development

An urgent rethinking of the Western approach to mental health, which treats the symptoms rather than the exploitative systems causing our distress—by a Rhodes Scholar and Harvard Medical School physician-anthropologist—offering lessons from the rest of the world. What if the mainstay of mental health care involved cancelling onerous debt, giving poor people free housing, and paying reparations to the descendants of slavery and colonialism? In Empire of Madness, Dr. Khameer Kidia re-evaluates the Western approach to mental health, which medicates symptoms instead of changing the structures that harm the human psyche. A physician and researcher whose own family suffers from the psychological effects of colonialism, Kidia highlights the limitations of the Western mental health model by reporting from the front lines of mental health crises at home, in the clinic, and during a decade of fieldwork. Clear-eyed and openhearted, Kidia asks the nuanced questions unaddressed by our current mental health model: How do history, culture, and politics shape mental distress? Are hoarding and burnout medical diagnoses or social problems? Why are schizophrenia outcomes sometimes better in poor countries without antipsychotics? Can a traditional healer treat mental illness better than a Western-trained clinician? For those living in poverty, can cash replace pills? With rigorous research, cutting analysis, and illuminating prose, Kidia invites us to reimagine mental health as a global idea where our wellbeing is mutual and everyone’s voice—patients, caregivers, and healthcare workers alike—matters.
