Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is the national space agency of India, established in 1969 with the vision of harnessing space technology for the progress and development of the nation. Headquartered in Bengaluru, ISRO functions under the Department of Space, Government of India. Since its inception, the organization has focused on applying space science and technology to solve real-world problems and improve the quality of life for millions of people. Its work supports vital sectors such as communication, weather forecasting, navigation, disaster management, environmental monitoring, and agriculture.Over the decades, ISRO has successfully designed and launched a wide range of satellites and launch vehicles that serve both national and international purposes. These satellites help improve telecommunications, enable accurate weather predictions, support GPS-based navigation systems, assist farmers with crop monitoring, and help authorities respond quickly to natural disasters. Through its indigenous launch vehicles such as the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) and Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV), ISRO has demonstrated remarkable engineering capabilities while maintaining an impressive record of reliability.One of the most remarkable aspects of ISRO is its ability to achieve extraordinary success with limited resources. The agency is globally respected for conducting highly efficient and cost-effective missions without compromising on innovation or scientific value. Some of its most celebrated missions include Chandrayaan, India's lunar exploration program that significantly contributed to our understanding of the Moon, and Mangalyaan (Mars Orbiter Mission), which made India the first country in the world to successfully reach Mars orbit on its maiden attempt. These missions not only showcased India's technological strength but also placed the country among the leading spacefaring nations.Beyond its technological achievements, ISRO represents a powerful story of determination, teamwork, and visionary leadership. From modest beginnings-where scientists transported rocket parts on bicycles and bullock carts-to launching complex interplanetary missions, the journey of ISRO reflects the perseverance and creativity of countless scientists, engineers, and researchers who believed in the nation's potential.The Adventures of ISRO capture this extraordinary journey, highlighting how determination, courage, and unwavering dedication can transform the aspirations of a developing nation into the achievements of a global space power. The story is not only about rockets, satellites, and scientific breakthroughs; it is also about the spirit of innovation and the belief that great dreams can emerge even from humble beginnings.ISRO's story ultimately mirrors the story of India itself-a nation that continues to rise through hard work, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. It proves that no dream is too ambitious when there is courage to pursue it and determination to overcome obstacles.Just as ISRO dared to dream of reaching the stars despite limited resources and numerous challenges, every individual has the potential to achieve remarkable success by believing in their vision and staying committed to their goals. Every great journey begins with a small step. With passion, persistence, and faith in one's abilities, even the most distant dreams can be transformed into meaningful realities that inspire others and leave a lasting impact on the world. Discover ISRO's journey from humble beginnings to becoming a global space power, driven by determination, innovation, and visionary leadership.

Soft cover. Condition: New. The Partition continues to cast its long shadow on the Indian psyche. Puran Chand, who migrated from Pakistan on foot when he was just nine years old, spends his life mastering the art of reinvention: a farmhand in his childhood, he became an army soldier at eighteen, only to be relieved pension-less eight years later, having lost his left hand in an off-duty accident. Struggling to make ends meet, the newly-married Puran takes up any job that comes his wayoffice peon, shopkeeper, street vendorgradually becoming a small landowning farmer. In the winter of his life, Puran lives in the lap of comforts in Chandigarh as his children have risen to coveted roles across industriesparticularly, son Govardhan Gabbi, a noted Punjabi writer, and granddaughter Wamiqa Gabbi, a popular actress working in Punjabi and Hindi films. Yet mundane anxieties, such as pending bills and chores, as well as the longing to visit his village often grip him, confounding the young in the family. As Puran looks back on his life, what emerges is a tale that illuminates both the mutual and the individual impressions left behind by historical events on successive generations of a family and a people. Govardhan Gabbi's Puran Gaatha: A Partition Saga is a heart-warming addition to the literature on the Partition, which is an ongoing negotiation with the world and the selfa ceaseless spring of stories of resilience and the trials of rebuilding one's life from scratch in a new homeland.
