Gulliver’s Travels describes the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon. In Lilliput, he discovers a world in miniature. Towering over the people and their city, he is able to view their society from the viewpoint of a god. However, in Brobdingnag, a land of giants, tiny Gulliver himself comes under observation, exhibited as a curiosity at markets and fairs.
On Laputa, a flying island, he encounters a society of speculators and projectors who have lost all grip on everyday reality. While they plan and calculate, their country lies in ruins. Gulliver's final voyage takes him to the land of the Houyhnhnms, gentle horses whom he quickly comes to admire, in contrast to the Yahoos, filthy bestial creatures who bear a disturbing resemblance to humans.

Glimpses of Ramayan, the Hymns of Himalaya
- Author Name:
Akhilesh Gumashta
- Book Type:

- Description: Cross-cultural respect is the Spiritual philosophy of India. May the present work prove to be the medium of interfaith movements. Ramayana is one of the most important ancient epics known to the historic footings of mankind. Ralph Griffith writes—‘Even far inferior poetic powers are, I think, much more Homeric than any literary prose.’ So this poetic expression, the first of its kind in English, as should have inherent power to penetrate through the soul, will surely permeate into the mind of the reader. These verses are the outcome of a thorough study of Valmiki Ramayana and its offspring in various languages of India i.e. Tamil (Kamban), Malayalam (Ezythechan), Telugu (Shrimoll), Adhyatma Ramayan and above all Tulsi’s Ramcharit Manas in Awadhi. The poet has verified his Bhakti following the meters and Vowel-marks (Matras) as followed by Goswamiji in his couplets, quadruplets, Stanzas & Distiches. Bhakti is the main force behind and so, should these verses have more impact?

Mahila Sashaktikaran : Dasha Aur Disha
- Author Name:
Yogendra Sharma
- Book Type:

- Description: महिलाओँ की संख्या विश्व की जनसंख्या से लगभग आधी है। उनके उन्नयन के बिना परिवार, समाज व राष्ट्र की प्रगति सम्भव नहीं है। आज वे विभिन्न क्षेत्रों में अपनी योग्यताओं एवं क्षमताओं को उजागर कर रही हैं, जागरूकता एवं आत्मनिर्भरता की ओर उन्मुख हैं। पहले की अपेक्षा उनकी स्थिति में सुधार हुआ है, अधिकारों एवं सुरक्षा में बढ़ोतरी भी हुई है। अब भी वे मंज़िल से दूर हैं, उन्हें यह सब कुछ प्राप्त नहीं हो सका है जो उनका अभीष्ट है। उनके विरुद्ध होनेवाले अपराधों में विगत की तुलना में वृद्धि हुई है। यद्यपि नए और कठोर क़ानून भी बने हैं लेकिन प्रभावी क्रियान्वयन तथा सामाजिक चेतना के अभाव में सशक्तीकरण कर लक्ष्य पूर्ण नहीं हो सका है। महिलाओं की उपेक्षा करने की प्रवृत्ति को त्यागकर कुकृत्यों के विरुद्ध आवाज़ उठानी होगी तथा विधिक कार्यवाही के प्रति तत्पर होना होगा। तभी उन्हें प्रताड़ना, अत्याचार एवं शोषण से मुक्ति सम्भव होगी।
