Of late, it is being observed that people around the globe are becoming more health conscious. Whereas, on one hand, scientists are busy carrying out researches, finding the cause(S) in the sudden spurt of diseases in its dreaded form and finding drugs to combat such ailments which assume epidemic shape and a host of innovative methods being deviced in the field of Surgery, a marked shift is seen amongst the masses towards the holistic approach. More and more people trying to get focused towards fitness, adopting Yoga & Naturopathy as a way of life. Paying more attention than before on their diet regime. Trying to take recourse to available non-conventional systems of medicine. One of the causative factors, perhaps, is the exorbitant cost of medicine, growing awareness about the side effects of allopathic drugs etc...! The redeeming feature is that people have started realising the importance of Prevention rather than a Cure. Over a period of time, acupressure has emerged as a prominent therapy since it is free from any side effect, since no medication whatsoever is required. It is totally non-conventional, non-invasive & non-interventional, a home remedy, easy to learn and practice. The simple reason being that it is evolved on the principle that human body in itself possesses immense healing power, all that is required is to tap that healing force of the body and the rest is taken care by the body itself. This therapy has been found to be very very effective in handling conditions e.g. Cervical/Lumber spondylitis, knee pain, Sciatica, Slip-disc, depression, insomnia, migraine, asthma, hypertension, PMS, IBS, various female/male problems etc..... to name a few. After the publication of our book �101 Q&A acupressure & reflexology�, our students have been demanding a book sharing our experience of about 30 years in this �Art & Science�. This book is to meet the demand of upcoming and practicing therapists of acupressure as also for the people to get benefit of our experience. All possible efforts have been made to depict the location of the pressure points to be attended to through figures, suggestion for correction of the errors, if any, that might have crept in would be gratefully accepted.

एक्यूप्रेशर थेरैपी की सबसे खूबसूरत बात यह है कि इसमें दवाओं की कोई भूमिका नहीं होती और न ही इसका शरीर पर कोई दुष्प्रभाव होता है। इसके अलावा इसमें किसी प्रकार की चीरफाड़ नहीं करनी पड़ती, न ही डॉक्टर की जरूरत होती है और यह गैरपारंपरिक है। इस पुस्तक में लेखकों ने केस स्टडी के जरिए बीमारियों के बारे में समझाया तथा बताया है। इनमें भी कुछ ऐसी बीमारियाँ थीं, जो काफी लंबे समय से जड़ें जमाए बैठी थीं। ऐसे मुश्किल मामलों का उपचार करते हुए लेखकों को भी यह पक्का भरोसा नहीं था कि इसका परिणाम क्या निकलेगा! इन केस स्टडी को साझा करने का लेखकों का मकसद अन्य थेरैपिस्ट के साथ अपने ज्ञान को साझा करना, साथ ही उन छात्रों के साथ अपने अनुभवों को बाँटना है, जो एक्यूप्रेशर का अध्ययन कर रहे हैं। सबसे अधिक संतुष्ट करने की बात यह है कि लेखकों ने एक पद्धति के दूसरी पद्धति पर प्रभुत्व की वकालत करने की बजाय सहप्रबंधन के महत्त्व पर जोर दिया है। यह कहने की जरूरत नहीं है कि यह पुस्तक एक्यूप्रेशर के क्षेत्र में महत्त्वपूर्ण योगदान देगी और पाठकों द्वारा सराही जाएगी।

Education is the foundation of the development of any country. But in our country, the First Education Policy was framed in 1968, 21 years after independence; the second policy was formulated in 1986; 34 years later, India got the National Educational Policy-2020 on 25th July, 2020. Besides these, certain commissions were also constituted for reforms in education, which made some good recommendations, but these could not be implemented for sheer want of political will. For an instance, the Kothari Commission in 1968, recommended 6 per cent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for expenditure on education, which was also adopted by the Education Policy-1986, but this is yet to be translated into practice. If we ignore pre-colonial period, the Bharat of post-independence has not yet been able to determine the aim of education. Character building and moulding a human i.e. holistic development of personality should be the aim of education. Essays on related subjects are included in this book. To identify the issues and problems that plague the education, and their solution, we carried out basic but innovative experiments in schools, colleges and universities. The original experiences of these exercises have been penned down as articles and research papers. This book is an anthology of the related writings.
