Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi And His Struggle With India



Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi And His Struggle With India - Pre Order

by Joseph Lelyveld
A highly original, stirring book on Mahatma Gandhi that deepens our sense of his achievements and disappointments. This is a vital, brilliant reconsideration of Gandhi’s extraordinary struggles on two continents, of his fierce but, finally, unfulfilled hopes, and of his ever-evolving legacy, which more than six decades after his death still ensures his place as India’s social conscience – and not just India’s.

Mathematics for IIT-JEE 2012-2013: Algebra
by Ghanshyam Tewani

Since the time the IIT-JEE started, the examination scheme and methodology have witnessed many a change. From the lengthy subjective problems of 1950s to the matrix match type questions of the present day, the paper-setting pattern and approach have changed. A variety of questions have been framed to test an aspirant�s calibre, aptitude, and attitude for engineering field and profession. Across all these years, however, there is one thing that has not changed about the IIT-JEE, i.e., its objective of testing an aspirant�s grasp and understanding of the concepts of the subjects of study and their applicability at the grass-root level. This series of books is an attempt at coming face to face with the latest IIT-JEE pattern in its own format, which is going to be highly advantageous to an aspirant for securing a good rank. This series of books features all types of problems asked in the examination be it MCQs (one or more than one correct), assertion reason type, matrix match type, or paragraph-based, thought-type questions. Not discounting to need for skilled and guided practice, the material in the book has been enriched with a large number of fully solved concept-application exercises so that every step in learning is ensured for the understanding and application of the subject.
