Описание: Life is unpredictable and full of challenges. One wrong step and everything can come crashing down. In such a scenario, one often wishes for a roadmap of life, but how is that possible? Bestselling author Radhakrishnan Pillai's much-anticipated book, Chanakya in Daily Life, will help you navigate the rough seas of life and stay on course. Covering all aspects of life from the personal to the professional, it will tell you everything from how to begin your day to how to end it, how to choose the right job, stay financially secure, have a happy married life, raise your children the right way, achieve the perfect work-life balance and much more. Like always, Pillai decodes and simplifies the visionary king-maker Chanakya's teachings from the Arthashastra and Chanakya Niti to provide solutions for any problem that might crop up in any aspect of your life. Thus, Chanakya in Daily Life is the perfect guru who expects only one thing from the shishya-a willingness to learn.
Appropriately Indian is an ethnographic analysis of the class of information technology professionals at the symbolic helm of globalizing India. Comprising a small but prestigious segment of India’s labor force, these transnational knowledge workers dominate the country’s economic and cultural scene, as do their notions of what it means to be Indian. Drawing on the stories of Indian professionals in Mumbai, Bangalore, Silicon Valley, and South Africa, Smitha Radhakrishnan explains how these high-tech workers create a “global Indianness” by transforming the diversity of Indian cultural practices into a generic, mobile set of “Indian” norms. Female information technology professionals are particularly influential. By reconfiguring notions of respectable femininity and the “good” Indian family, they are reshaping ideas about what it means to be Indian.
Radhakrishnan explains how this transnational class creates an Indian culture that is self-consciously distinct from Western culture, yet compatible with Western cosmopolitan lifestyles. She describes the material and symbolic privileges that accrue to India’s high-tech workers, who often claim ordinary middle-class backgrounds, but are overwhelmingly urban and upper caste. They are also distinctly apolitical and individualistic. Members of this elite class practice a decontextualized version of Hinduism, and they absorb the ideas and values that circulate through both Indian and non-Indian multinational corporations. Ultimately, though, global Indianness is rooted and configured in the gendered sphere of home and family.

Описание: Stories of Wisdom for Dreamers and Thinkers Raja or Rishi? King or Kingmaker? Man or Mystic? Emperor Chadragupta's beloved teacher, Chanakya had a life that was as fraught with mystery as it was replete with wisdom. His words and actions were meticulously engineered and executed. Chanakya taught the important lessons in life by example and that is exactly what veteran author Radhakrishnan Pillai does through this wonderful book. Katha Chanakya narrates tales from the great Acharya's life, and puts into modern context the policies and practices of India's most strategic dreamer and thinker. Some of these stories are real and some fictional. But all are focused on the welfare of the people, be it the dilemma of choosing a new leader, rooting out corruption or defeating a great enemy. If you have a vision, if you have a dream, Katha Chanakya will help you make it a reality. Radhakrishnan Pillai is the bestselling author of Corporate Chanakya, Chanakya's 7 Secrets of Leadership and Chanakya in You. He has researched Kautilya's Arthashastra extensively and has a Master's degree in Sanskrit. With 20 years of experience as a management consultant and speaker, he heads the Leadership Center in University of Mumbai.
