Hinduism flourished in the districts around Poona in Bombay to a far greater extent than in the rest of India, hence the problems facing the British administrators of Maharashtra were quite different from those confronting them in other parts of India. The solutions they proposed and the policies which emerged determined the social changes which took place in the Maharashtra in the nineteenth century. This book analyses these changes by focussing on the rise of new social groups and the di...

Discover environmentally safe ways to control weeds and pests!Until now farmers have had to choose between using expensive herbicides and fertilizers, which pollute the water table, or watching crop yields drop. All too often, crop yields dropped anyway, despite intensive farming. Allelopathy in Agroecosystems offers fresh hope. It provides an in-depth understanding of allelopathy-the mysterious, complex biochemical interactions among plants and microbes. This little-understood phe...

The rapid convergence of the industrial internet of things (IIoT) and machine learning (ML) is propelling us into a new era known as Industry 5.0. This era is defined by unparalleled levels of automation, customization, and sustainability. Despite these advancements, there is a noticeable absence of comprehensive resources that offer a complete understanding of these transformative technologies and their practical applications across various industrial sectors. Transforing Industries: ...

Two legal scholars of India examine privacy in India, how it is different from privacy in the West, and why it needs to be protected in this carefully researched book. Gaurav Goyal and Ravinder Kumar argue that privacy laws in India are weak because politicians have failed to pass laws to protect it. Even in the West, its not always clear whats protected in terms of privacy. They further argue that ones private sphere is subjective and depends on ones culture, environment, and economic con...

Underground Vegetable Crops provides comprehensive information on the morphological, physiological, and biochemical responses of various underground vegetable crops to abiotic stress and the strategies for managing these crops under these conditions.
