Hardcover. Condition: New.

From Dalit writings to tribal musings, the essays in this volume cover a diverse range of ongoing struggle against power monopoly, marginalization and stigma that are unfolding in upcoming writers from the Indian subcontinent. The volume consisting of 20 collective essays from various researchers across academic platform analyses the diverse forms of agency to negotiate with the hegemonic power discourses that pushes one to the margins. The essays interrogate, negate and create a dialogue to foreground the various dimensions that become a part of subalternity in the contemporary Indian context. The objective of this collection of essays is to delve deep into the subaltern consciousness and voice for the underprivileged class and gender that are undermined, speechless and unnoticed in the pages of Indian history.

Conclusion: Situating India s Inclusive Education in the Global Episteme of Diversity, Inequality and Democracy/Arvind Kumar Mishra. Index. Dynamics of Inclusive Classroom explores the challenges and possibilities of rendering classrooms more inclusive by contributing to a better understanding of educational needs of socially diverse children in India. The contributors to this volume show how, in a world of rapid social, political, economic and educational changes, social diversity, inequalities and social exclusion/inclusion are subjects of great import. Part of this process is the significant increase in the number of children from socially diverse backgrounds in the classroom. This increase calls for a better understanding of their needs and for processes that render classrooms more inclusive. In India, the increased enrolment of socially diverse students requires us to give special attention to issues of inequality based on caste, class, religion, gender, language and region, which affect children s learning processes and outcomes. This volume is based on a great variety of research, drawn from academic analyses, policy formulation, and classroom practices. Collectively, the contributors argue that, in order to render Indian classrooms inclusive, the country needs to formulate a school education policy that would result in pedagogical preparedness to deal with the increased enrolment of historically marginalised and oppressed children from diverse backgrounds. Through case studies and field examples, the authors also demonstrate the processes and practices through which learning can be made inclusive and democratic in Indian classrooms. This book offers fresh insights into diversity and contemporary educational practices in India and will be of considerable interest to students, scholars, practitioners and policy-makers involved in education, development studies, social work, sociology, history, and public policy.

It is quite difficult to find a comprehensive type of definition of health education that is satisfactory to all the persons as there are nearly as many definitions of this concept as there are health educators. It is necessary to define the concept of health education in a comprehensive way which encompasses all of its parts without detracting from any of its parts. There is found to be controversy on the issue of defining the concept of health education. In reality the debate among professionals over definition of health education tends towards two fundamental positions. There are some experts who advocate the adoption of one definition of health education by which purpose of health educators in all facets of practice in all settings can get satisfied while there are other set of experts who are of the view that it is in accordance with the specific task and setting that process of health education keeps on changing or varying.

This book would enable the students to develop interest and appreciate the role of biotechnology for future research and advancement of agriculture, veterinary, biomedical, industrial development and environmental protection for the welfare of society. The aim of this book is not only to bring together the various fields of biotechnology, but also to present the basics behind each potential biotechnology in an understandable form. The book also attempts to compile some of the biotechnology processes for their easy access at a single platform which at present, is lacking. The target of the book is to give students a complete view of 'know-how' of biotechnology, especially those who have just ventured into this field and need a head start. Diverse biotechnologies with their basic principles along with there potential applications emerging in recent past are explained in very easy language and with the help of illustrations.
