The Battle of Brick Lane in 1978 was the defining moment for the Bangladeshi community in Britain.This book gives an insight into the lives of the older generation and the problems they faced in the United Kingdom during the 1970s. It is a reminder to our young people of how we stood up against racism and fought for Bangladeshi rights in Britain.

"Floods are a recurring phenomenon in Bangladesh, and they occur in varying magnitudes almost every year. The catastrophic flood of 1998 was the worst in living memory both in terms of area affected and its duration. "This book is the outcome of a seminar on Flood '98, held in Dhaka in December 1998. Papers presented in this volume are by leading professionals who are experts on the geographical, environmental, engineering, economic and legal aspects of flood and natural disasters. They analyse the internal, regional and oceanic causes of Flood '98; assess the damages to both the urban and rural populations, to crops, livestock, infrastructure and other individual and societal assets. The authors have sought to suggest ways to possible solutions of the flood problem in terms of management of floods in the future through a planned national effort. More importantly the authors emphasize on integrating national efforts with a regional cooperation network involving the upper riparians."
