फल प्रकृति द्वारा इनसान को दिए गए अनुपम वरदान हैं। ये कभी ताज़े, कभी पकाकर और कभी सुखाकर खाए जाते हैं। ये क्षुधा शान्त करते हैं, तृप्ति प्रदान करते हैं। मीठी सुगन्ध और उन्नत स्वाद वाले फल चित्त को आह्लादित करते हैं। स्वस्थ शरीर के संचालन के लिए जिन प्राकृतिक तत्त्वों की ज़रूरत है, वे हमें फलों से मिलते रहते हैं। इनके द्वारा कैल्शियम, लोहा, ताम्र, फॉस्फ़ोरस आदि खनिज लवण, चिकनाई और विटामिनों की शरीर में आपूर्ति होती रहती है। फलों को रुग्णावस्था में पथ्य रूप में खिलाया जाता है। कुछ रोगों के निवारण के लिए चिकित्सक मुख्य रूप से फलों का सेवन कराते हैं। पैंसठ फलों का 39 रंगीन तथा 103 सादे चित्रों के साथ इस पुस्तक में परिचय दिया गया है। उनका स्वरूप, प्राप्ति-स्थान, विविध भाषाओं में उनके नाम, उनकी खेती, उनका रासायनिक संघटन, उनके गुण और उनकी पौष्टिक उपादेयता का प्रतिपादन किया गया है। ताज़ा खाए जानेवाले लोकप्रिय फल इसमें सम्मिलित किए गए हैं जैसे—आम, अमरूद, अंगूर, चीकू, नासपाती, केला, पपीता, लीची, सन्तरा, ख़रबूजा, तरबूज़ आदि; पहाड़ी इलाक़ों में पैदा होनेवाले फल खुमानी, सेब, आड़ई, आलूबुखारा, बगूगोशा, चेरी, स्ट्रॉबेरी, आदि; बाहर के देशों से भारत में सम्प्रविष्ट किए गए फल जैसे—कीवी, एवाकाडो, दुरियन, राम्बुतान; सूखे मेवे (ड्राई फ्रूट्स), जैसे—काजू, बादाम,अख़रोट, पिस्ता, चिलगोज़ा, किशमिश आदि।

Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar is considered the Messiah of the Dalits in India. In 1947, the Constituent Assembly appointed him as the chairman of the Drafting Committee constituted for drafting the Constitution for independent India. He played a key role in building the Constitution. He was born on 14 April 1891 at Mhow (near Indore), a small town of present Madhya Pradesh. He was the fourteenth child of Subedar Ramji and Bhimabai Sakpal. Being from the Maharcaste, he was treated as an ‘untouchable’. His father and his grandfather had served in the British Army. Good schools were arranged by the then government for the education of the children of all military personnel. Therefore, despite being from a low caste, he got a good education. In 1937, Dr Ambedkar introduced a bill to end the ‘Khoti’ practice of Mahars working as official slaves in the Konkan region. When India became independent in 1947, he adorned the post of the Minister of Law. He had made a clarion call—‘Lost rights are never regained by begging... but by relentless struggle’. For his remarkable work, he was posthumously awarded India’s highest civilian award ‘Bharat Ratna’ in the year 1990.

At the stroke of the midnight on 14-15 August 1947, India secured independence. That moment also witnessed the tragic partition of India and birth of Pakistan. Nobody wanted it. Yet it couldn't be averted. Four decades earlier, in 1905, Bengal was partitioned by the British. A massive movement, called Vande Mataram Movement, was launched against it by the Indian National Congress. British were forced to annul partition of Bengal in 1911. A country that defeated the British designs to partition one province failed when the whole country was being partitioned four decades later. Why? What missteps had led to the disaster? Who were responsible? 'Partitioned Freedom' explores answers to these questions.
