Light on the Mahabharata - Nicholas Sutton
In this in-depth, engaging guide to the Mahabharata, Hindu Studies scholar Nicholas Sutton explores the central messages of the work’s core narratives and passages of instruction, demonstrating how the questions the text poses are as relevant today as they were to those who composed this mighty treatise on human existence.The Mahabharata is a truly vast work of early Sanskrit literature that reflects on a wide range of issues which have concerned people throughout different epochs. Within the context of Indian culture, the significance of the Mahabharata cannot be overstated, as its themes, characters, narratives, and preoccupations have reverberated across the region for centuries. It is well-known that the whole of the epic is structured around a central narrative that tells of an ancient conflict between two branches of the same royal house, the Pandavas and Kauravas. Yet it is also a clearly didactic work that addresses the fundamental meaning of human existence. In Light on the Mahabharata: A Guide to India’s Great Epic, Nicholas Sutton examines the multi-faceted manner in which the Mahabharata does this, elucidating the diverse and multi-layered answers the text offers to the many questions it raises. Sutton’s book explores why the main characters behave in the manner that they do, the vision of life that motivates them, and the extent to which they are able to prioritise enlightened wisdom over narrow self-interest. Unravelling the Sanskrit epic’s myriad lines of reflection, Light on the Mahabharata demonstrates that the questions the work poses and the range of answers it suggests are as relevant in the present day as they were in remote antiquity. OXFORD CENTRE SERIES: The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Publishing Series offers authoritative yet accessible introductions to a wide range of subjects in Hindu Studies. Each book in the series aims to present its subject matter in a form that is engaging and readily comprehensible to persons of all backgrounds – academic or otherwise – without compromising scholarly rigour. The series thus bridges the divide between academic and popular writing by preserving and utilising the best elements of both. Other books in the series include The Bhagavad Gita: A New Translation and Study Guide; The Hindu Temple and Its Sacred Landscape; and Women in the Hindu World. EXPERT AUTHOR: Nicholas Sutton has spent the four decades studying, teaching, and writing on the Mahabharata. Sutton is the Director of the Continuing Education Department of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, an academy for the study of Hindu cultures, societies, philosophies, religions, and languages. He received his PhD from Lancaster University, writing his doctoral dissertation on the Mahabharata, and currently writes and tutors online courses on Hindu religious traditions. EDUCATION AID: This book serves as a comprehensive resource for both classwork and independent study of Hinduism. With the integration of discussion questions, suggested further readings, and glossary of Sanskrit terms, Light on the Mahabharata offers an accessible introduction to this enduring Sanskrit epic.

Mahabharata Unravelled - Ami Ganatra
Millennia have passed since the dharma yudhha of the cousins shook the land of Bharata. But this history of our ancestors continues to fascinate us. Even today, we have passionate discussions about the people and their actions in the epic, fervidly defending our favourites and denouncing others. The number of works on the Mahabharata-adaptations, retellings and fiction-that still get written is a testimony to its enduring relevance. While the general storyline is largely known, a lot of questions and myths prevail, such as-What was the geographical extent of the war? Did Drona actually refuse to take on Karna as his disciple? What were Draupadi s responsibilities as the queen of Indraprastha? Did she ever mock Duryodhana? Were the women in the time of the Mahabharata meek and submissive? What were the names of the war formations during the time? What role did the sons of the Pandavas play? Does the south of India feature at all in the Mahabharata? What happened after the war? These and many other intriguing questions continue to mystify the contemporary reader. Author Ami Ganatra debunks myths, quashes popular notions and offers insights into such aspects not commonly known or erroneously known, based solely on facts as narrated in Vyasa s Mahabharata from generally accepted authentic sources. For a history of such prominence and influence as the Mahabharata, it is important to get the story right. So pick this book up, sit back and unveil the lesser-known facts and truths about the great epic.

Mahabharata Unravelled - II - Ami Ganatra
The first volume of Mahabharata Unravelled covered the itihasa of our ancestors true to the narration of Rishi Veda Vyasa. But the Mahabharata is more than a story of the past. It has extensive discourses on ethics, personal and social interaction, administration, jurisprudence and related topics, in the form of conversations. For instance, the Shanti Parva, the largest of the 18 parvas, is a treatise on Raja Dharma. Advice on the responsibilities and duties of leaders and administrators is imparted to Yudhishthira by Bhishma from his bed of arrows on the field of war. Then there is a profound dialogue between Dhritarashtra and the erudite Vidura that appears in Udyoga Parva, popularly known as Vidura Neeti. Likewise, there is a thought-provoking story narrated by Rishi Markandeya to the Pandavas of a meat-seller who teaches dharma to a Brahmin named Kaushika. In this book, Ami Ganatra highlights the most important lessons from the Dharma discourses found in the Mahabharata. Their teachings hold true even in current times, perhaps more so than ever.

Zachovajte si bystrosť - Gupta Sanjay - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Úžasný vedecky podložený návod, ako si natrvalo udržať zdravú a mladú myseľ. Pravdepodobne robíte všetko možné, aby ste boli fit a udržali si zdravé telo, ale čo robíte pre svoj mozog? Je vôbec možné zachovať si v každom veku mladú a bystrú myseľ? Donedávna si dokonca aj odborníci mysleli, že ľudský mozog sa vyvíja len istý čas. Ale to nie je pravda. Čoraz viac vedeckých dôkazov svedčí o tom, že bystrú myseľ si možno užívať po celý život. V audioknihe Zachovajte si bystrosť vychádza autor z výsledkov najmodernejšieho výskumu, za ktorými precestoval celý svet, aby skúmal tajomstvá kognitívnej dlhovekosti. Poukazuje na škodlivé mýty o fungovaní mozgu a ponúka päť pilierov pre zdravú myseľ: hýbte sa, objavujte, oddychujte, vyživujte a socializujte sa. Či už ide o oblasť ideálnej stravy, fyzickej aktivity, výživových doplnkov alebo nastavenia mysle, Dr. Gupta nám ukazuje, čo v tomto smere funguje a prečo je to tak. Dokonca každému, kto chce už dnes začať pracovať na zlepšení svojich kognitívnych schopností, ponúka inovatívny dvanásťtýždňový program. Skôr než sa u nás prejavia problémy s pamäťou, máme možnosť posilniť odolnosť svojho mozgu proti chorobám – a to aj v prípade, že sa u nás vyskytujú genetické rizikové faktory. Ľuďom, ktorí už zažívajú kognitívny úpadok alebo sa starajú o blízkeho s demenciou, ponúka Dr. Gupta usmernenia a rady pre produktívnejší a pozitívnejší zajtrajšok. Nečakajte a začnite si posilňovať mozog! Audiokniha Zachovajte si bystrosť je presne ten návod, ktorý potrebujete, aby ste si zachovali zdravý mozog po celý život. „Toto je recept, ako výrazne skvalitniť ľudský život. Kniha Zachovajte si bystrosť je užitočná pomôcka pre každého, kto chce lepšie pochopiť fungovanie zdravej mysle a uchovať si ju.“ - BILL GATES „Dr. Sanjay Gupta dokáže jedinečne pretlmočiť výsledky najnovšieho vedeckého výskumu do prístupného jazyka zrozumiteľného všetkým. Či sa bojíte straty pamäti, alebo si len chcete zdokonaliť mozog, kniha Zachovajte si bystrosť bude vaším základným sprievodcom.“ - DR. GARY SMALL, riaditeľ Centra dlhovekosti na UCLA „Gupta brilantne búra mýty, upokojuje obavy a ponúka riešenia, vďaka ktorým si zachováme bystrosť po celý život.“ - DR. DEAN ORNISH, zakladateľ a riaditeľ Výskumného inštitútu preventívnej medicíny „Kniha Zachovajte si bystrosť zmení spôsob, akým uvažujeme o svojom mozgu, staráme sa oň a podporujeme jeho plný potenciál.“ - DR. DAVID B. AGUS, autor bestsellera The End of Illness „Kiežby táto kniha bola existovala, keď som sa starala o svojho otca trpiaceho Alzheimerovou chorobou.“ - MARIA SHRIVEROVÁ, autorka knihy Zamýšľam sa... a zakladateľka Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement „Sanjay Gupta ponúka brilantný plán, ktorý môže zrealizovať každý z nás.

Bystřejší mozek - Gupta Sanjay - audiokniha
Audiokniha: „Tuto knihu potřebujeme všichni – mladí i staří.“ – Walter Isaacson O knize Zahoďte představu, že stáří znamená úpadek intelektu. Věda přináší dobré zprávy! Mozek si můžeme zlepšovat v každém věku: posilovat neuronové sítě, stimulovat růst nových mozkových buněk i odvracet degenerativní onemocnění. Je jen na nás, jak robustní kognitivní rezervu si vytvoříme. A nejlepší bude začít s tím hned. Sanjay Gupta vyvrací mýty o stárnutí a dokazuje, že větší vliv než geny má na osud mozku náš životní styl. Na onemocnění si zakládáme desítky let před prvními příznaky poruch, a proto je zásadní pečovat o mozek pomocí každodenních návyků už od mládí. Gupta přístupně vysvětluje fascinující schopnosti mozku i možné projevy patologií. Doporučuje pro mozek nejlepší dietu a cvičební režim, zkoumá význam společenského života, spánku, odpočinku či hraní videoher. Zjišťuje, co se můžeme naučit od „supermozků“, kterým se blíží devadesátka a nejeví známky zpomalení, nebo zda jsou doplňky stravy a vitaminy skutečně přínosné. Závěr knihy věnuje Alzheimerově chorobě, přičemž pacientům i jejich blízkým nabízí konkrétní návody pro různé fáze nemoci. V knize se mimo jiné dozvíte: - Mozek tvoří nanejvýš 2, 5 % tělesné hmotnosti, ale využívá 20% příjmu energie a kyslíku. - Lidé, kteří meditují, mají určité části mozkové kůry silnější – mají lepší paměť a jsou chytřejší. - Mozek začíná zpomalovat asi v pětadvaceti letech, ale určité kognitivní funkce lze zlepšovat bez ohledu na věk. - K rizikovým faktorům Alzheimerovy choroby patří mimo jiné nadměrný tuk v břišní oblasti a zvýšená hladina glukózy v krvi. - Některé druhy paměťových lapsů a roztržitosti jsou běžné a nemusí v nás vzbuzovat paniku. O autorovi Sanjay Gupta (* 1969) je americký neurochirurg, hlavní lékařský zpravodaj CNN a trojnásobný držitel cen Emmy, spisovatel a moderátor podcastu Chasing Life. Působí také na Lékařské fakultě Emoryho univerzity v Atlantě, kde žije s manželkou a třemi dcerami. #Více o knize melvil.cz/kniha-bystrejsi-mozek

A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things - Raj Patel, Jason W. Moore
Nature, money, work, care, food, energy, and lives: these are the seven things that have made our world and will shape its future. In making these things cheap, modern commerce has transformed, governed, and devastated Earth. In A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things, Raj Patel and Jason W. Moore present a new approach to analyzing today’s planetary emergencies. Bringing the latest ecological research together with histories of colonialism, indigenous struggles, slave revolts, and other rebellions and uprisings, Patel and Moore demonstrate that throughout history, crises have always prompted fresh strategies to make the world cheap and safe for capitalism. At a time of crisis in all seven cheap things, innovative and systemic thinking is urgently required. This book proposes a radical new way of understanding—and reclaiming—the planet in the turbulent twenty-first century.

The Scaling Era - Dwarkesh Patel
An inside view of the AI revolution, from the people and companies making it happen.How did we build large language models? How do they think, if they think? What will the world look like if we have billions of AIs that are as smart as humans, or even smarter?In a series of in-depth interviews with leading AI researchers and company founders—including Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, DeepMind cofounder Demis Hassabis, OpenAI cofounder Ilya Sutskever, MIRI cofounder Eliezer Yudkowsky, and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg—Dwarkesh Patel provides the first comprehensive and contemporary portrait of the technology that is transforming our world.Drawn from his interviews on the Dwarkesh Podcast, these curated excerpts range from the technical details of how LLMs work to the possibility of an AI takeover or explosive economic growth. Patel’s conversations cut through the noise to explore the topics most compelling to those at the forefront of the field: the power of scaling, the potential for misalignment, the sheer input required for AGI, and the economic and social ramifications of superintelligence. The book is also a standalone introduction to the technology. It includes over 170 definitions and visualizations, explanations of technical points made by guests, classic essays on the theme from other writers, and unpublished interviews with Open Philanthropy research analyst Ajeya Cotra and Anthropic cofounder Jared Kaplan. The Scaling Era offers readers unprecedented insight into a transformative moment in the development of AI—and a vision of what comes next.

The Glutathione Revolution - Dr. Nayan Patel
While there s no real fountain of youth just yet, upping your levels of glutathione (GHS) can help you ward off life-threatening disease and symptoms of aging. GSH is the disease-fighting, age-slowing, energy-enhancing, beautifying antioxidant that many of us are just starting to be aware of. It helps do everything from bolstering immunity to lowering inflammation and regulating hormones--which means it has the potential to help protect against a long list of maladies (cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, and Alzheimer s). At the forefront of research, Dr. Nayan Patel offers the first book that really unpacks the power of this super antioxidant. The Glutathione Revolution is a guide that is both comprehensive and practical, outlining what exactly glutathione is--and what happens to us as it decreases over time. Dr. Patel shows us how to naturally kick it into overdrive to capitalize on the antioxidant s innumerable benefits. With a 14-day plan, along with recipes, menus, and easy natural steps to boost glutathione levels in the body, you can feel younger and ward off the diseases of aging--naturally.

Ekonomika života a smrti - Sanjay Basu, David Stuckler
Oxfordský vědec David Stuckler a epidemiolog Sanjay Basu ze Stanfordu jsou odborníky na problematiku veřejného zdraví. V Ekonomice života a smrti shromáždili historické i současné údaje pocházející z celého světa - jejich výzkumná cesta začíná ve Spojených státech třicátých let minulého století a končí v Řecku a Španělsku dnešních dnů -, aby ukázali, do jaké hloubky ovlivňuje politika lidské zdraví, jak zásadně mohou politicko-ekonomická opatření realizovaná v obdobích finančních krizí ovlivnit život každého z nás. Politici donekonečna hovoří o hospodářských i sociálních dopadech současné finanční krize, přitom však většina z nich stále přehlíží její katastrofální účinky na lidské zdraví. Ve skutečnosti neblahé efekty krize mnohdy ještě zhoršují přijímáním tvrdých úsporných opatření a omezováním klíčových sociálních programů v době, kdy je lidé nejvíce potřebují. Stuckler a Basu v provokativní knize přehledně dokládají, že pomýlená politická rozhodnutí a ekonomická opatření přijatá v době recese ve snaze o vyrovnání rozpočtů a podpoření finančních trhů vedou ke vzniku skutečných epidemií - počínaje růstem počtu sebevražd a konče rychlým šířením nákazy HIV -, které devastují zdraví a životy tisíců obyvatel právě těch zemí, v nichž byla příliš úsporná opatření uvedena do praxe. Autoři však také poukazují na existenci alternativního přístupu, jehož efektivitu potvrzují konkrétní příklady. Dokazují, že investice do sociálního zabezpečení, podpory programů pro nezaměstnané a důchodce a do podpory bydlení zvyšují zdraví obyvatelstva a přitom nevylučují ekonomický růst. Veřejné blaho tedy nemusí být obětováno fiskálnímu zdraví.

Sarma s book may be the most important work on education written this century - SkepticAs the head of Open Learning at MIT, Sanjay Sarma has a daunting job description: to fling open the doors of the MIT experience for the benefit of the wider world. But if you re going to undertake such an ambitious project, you must first ask: How exactly does learning work? What conditions are most conducive? Are our traditional classroom methods - lecture, homework, test, repeat - actually effective? And if not, which techniques are?Grasp takes readers across multiple frontiers, from fundamental neuroscience to cognitive psychology and beyond, as it explores the future of learning. For instance:· Scientists are studying the role of forgetting, exposing it not as a simple failure of memory but a critical weapon in our learning arsenal· New developments in neuroimaging are helping us understand how reading works in the brain. It s become possible to identify children who might benefit from specialised dyslexia interventions - before they learn to read· Many schools have begun converting to flipped classrooms, in which you watch a lesson at home, then do your homework in classAlong the way, Sarma debunks long-held views such as the noxious idea of learning styles, while equipping readers with a set of practical tools for absorbing and retaining information across a lifetime of learning. He presents a vision for learning that s more inclusive and democratic - revealing a world bursting with powerful learners, just waiting for the chance they deserve.Drawing from the author s experience as an educator and the work of researchers and educational innovators at MIT and beyond, Grasp offers scientific and practical insight, promising not just to inform and entertain readers but to open their minds.

Across The Green Sea - Sanjay Subrahmanyam
Beginning in the mid-fifteenth century, the regions bordering the western Indian Ocean â “ â ˜the green sea,â ™ as it was known to Arabic speakers â “ underwent vast transformation. An era of commercial and cultural exchange blossomed between the Red Sea and Mecca, the Persian Gulf, East Africa, Kerala and western India. In Across the Green Sea, Sanjay Subrahmanyam recounts the history of this ocean from a variety of shifting viewpoints. He sets the scene with the withdrawal of China s Ming Dynasty and explores how the western Indian Ocean was transformed by the growth and increasing prominence of the Ottoman Empire and the continued spread of Islam into East Africa. He examines how several cities, including Mecca and the vital Indian port of Surat, grew and changed during these centuries, when various powers interacted, until famines and other disturbances upended the region in the seventeenth century.Rather than proposing an artificial model of a dominant centre and its dominated peripheries, Across the Green Sea reveals the complexity of a truly dynamic and polycentric system through the use of connected histories, a method which he has pioneered.
