Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. One of the best known works of Mir Mosharraf Hossain, Bishad Sindhu (Ocean of Melancholy) is an epic historical novel centred on events that led to the battle of Karbala and its aftermath. The book revolves around the tragic story of Hassan and Hussein, grandsons of the great Prophet Muhammad, who were exterminated by their bitter enemy Yazid, the son of the king of Damascus, for his desire for ZainabHassan's beautiful wifeand his greed for the throne of Medina. The plot is dramatic, has a mythical undertone to it, and deeds of heroism and supernatural occurrences render an epic flavour to its narrative. The storyline explores the sufferings and agonies of human life and the covetousness and hatred of men, and, at the same time, imparts a historical background to the bloodbath and killings that took place in Karbala, Iraq on the 10th of October, AD 680.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A person who lives to eighty-two gets a little under thirty thousand mornings. That is the whole allotment. Subtract the ones already spent. Subtract the ones lost to illness, to exhaustion, to grief. Subtract the mornings you will wake up angry about something you won't remember a year from now. What's left is not a countdown. It is an inventory - and almost nobody ever reads it.We are the first people in history who can go most of a lifetime without seeing anyone die. Death has been moved into buildings we don't enter, handled by professionals we never meet, and described in language designed to avoid naming it. Passed away. Lost the battle. No longer with us. Meanwhile an industry worth tens of billions a year sells us the opposite story, and Silicon Valley says with a straight face that dying is a technical problem awaiting a fix.Every previous generation knew better, and built practices to keep the knowledge close.Seneca balanced the accounts of his life each evening, so that no reckoning could catch him unprepared. Marcus Aurelius wrote himself notes at dawn he never intended anyone to read. Epictetus, born a slave, taught his students to name aloud what each thing actually was - a cup is a cup, and cups break - so that loss would not arrive as betrayal. Buddhist monks were sent to the charnel grounds to sit with bodies at every stage of coming apart. Renaissance painters set a skull on the table beside the lute and the half-peeled lemon. Medieval Europe produced an entire literature on the art of dying well and expected ordinary people to study it.None of this was morbid. All of it pointed the same direction: wake up, while there is still time to wake up in.Thirty Thousand Mornings gathers what those traditions understood and puts it to work on a modern life - the one with the phone in it, the deferred conversation, the trip to see aging parents that can always happen someday.The book makes a single sustained argument: finitude is not life's opponent but the thing that makes anything matter at all. An immortal being would have no reason to do anything on a Tuesday rather than a Tuesday four centuries from now. It is the limit that confers weight.From there it works outward. Why we fear dying more than being dead, and what the psychology of denial actually costs us. How mortality awareness sharpens attention and returns hours that distraction had quietly taken. What death reveals about love - why grief is not the opposite of love but its continuation. Why the dying so rarely regret the things they did. What a good death asks of us, practically and emotionally, long before it arrives. And what the major traditions say about whatever comes after, including the honest answer that we do not know.It ends with thirteen daily practices. Each names how long it takes and when to do it. None requires belief in anything. Most take under five minutes. They are meant to be started this morning, not admired from a distance.This is not a book about dying. It is a book about the quality of attention available to people who have stopped pretending they have unlimited time - written for anyone who has caught themselves postponing their own life and wants to know what the alternative looks like in practice.The question was never how much time you have. The question is what you are doing with the hour you are standing in. Eighty-two years is about thirty thousand mornings, and no one knows which number they are on. This book makes the case that finitude is what gives life its weight and ends with thirteen daily practices for living like someone who has noticed This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Master the Science of Energy with Clarity, Precision, and Visual Guidance.Built from the ground up for first- and second-year students, this self-contained textbook cuts through dense academic jargon to offer a highly engaging, example-driven blueprint for mastery. Author connects abstract mathematical equations directly to physical reality using intuitive, clear schematics and a disciplined, structured approach. Instead of demanding rote formula memorization, each of the 43 chapters unpacks exactly why a topic matters, how the core principles apply to real-world devicesSpanning 11 comprehensive parts, the text guides readers effortlessly from foundational principles such as control volumes, equations of state, and boundary work-to advanced, modern territories including psychrometrics, combustion stoichiometry, and statistical mechanics. It also provides an up-to-date look at the thermodynamic design of emerging renewable systems like solar thermal, geothermal energy, green hydrogen, and fuel cells.Key Features: Unrivaled Visual Pedagogy: Every single law, state posture, and thermodynamic cycle is illustrated with clear, intuitive diagrams, flowchart workflows, and property charts ($P\text{-}V$, $T\text{-}v$, and $T\text{-}s$) that bridge theory and calculation.Step-by-Step Worked Examples: Every chapter includes at least three fully worked math problems that never skip intermediate arithmetic steps, unit conversion tracking, or algebraic rearrangements.Bulletproof Calculation Routines: Introduces students to a reliable, universal 5-step engineering routine to prevent common conversion slips, dimensional homogeneity issues, and false sig-fig precision.Active Learning Checks: Loaded with real-world Concept Checks, quick-reference Method Summaries, Common Mistake Warnings, and concise chapter Cheat Sheets to accelerate study sessions and exam preparation.Graded Practice & Full Solutions: Includes beginner, intermediate, and advanced textbook exercises, an elite Challenge Problem, and a comprehensive, fully worked Answer Key at the end of every chapter with independently verified data.11-Part Roadmap: Foundations: Systems, properties of matter, pure substances, and equations of state.The First Law: Energy balances for closed systems, control volumes, and engineering devices.The Limits of Energy: Entropy, the Second Law, the Carnot ceiling, and Exergy analysis.Power and Gas Cycles: Rankine, Brayton, Otto, Diesel, Stirling, and Ericsson cycles.Refrigeration & HVAC: Vapor-compression, absorption refrigeration, and psychrometrics.Combustion: Stoichiometry, heating values, flame temperatures, and emissions control.Property Relations: Partial derivatives, potentials, and the Maxwell equations.Mixtures: Mass/mole fractions, Dalton's law, and gas-vapor modeling.Renewable Energy: Solar thermal, geothermal systems, wind, hydro, ocean engineering, and the hydrogen economy.Advanced Frontiers: Statistical thermodynamics, information entropy, kinetic theory, and cryogenics. A visual, example-driven textbook from core foundational concepts to advanced frontiers.The Book bypasses tedious memorization through intuitive diagrams, step-by-step worked examples, common-mistake alerts, and complete problem answer keys.
