The Akbar Nama (3 Vols. Set) Hardcover
$149.00Book Summary of The Akbar Nama – 3 Vols. Allamah Abul Fazl?s Akbar namah will always retain its fascination and charm as a minute account of the customs and traditions of the people of India during the reign of Akbar. The ablest of the Mughal emperors, who has been so much extolled by historians for his sagacious statesmanship, dexierous diplomacy and military skill. The his?torical importance of this admirable treatise of reference is further enhanced by the fact that its author was Akbar?s intimate friend and confidential adviser and, therefore, had access to informa?tion at first hand. The three volumes cover the period from 1542 A.D. to 1605 A.D. and each volume contains introduction, various explanatory notes from Mr. Beveridge and an index at the end. H. Beveridge, with occasional interruptions, spent over twenty years in translating this monu?mental work in three volumes from the Bibliotheca Indica edition of the text after consulting many manuscripts in the British Museum, the India Office, and the Royal Asiatic Society?s Library, etc. Originally published from 1902 to 1939 by the Royal Asiatic Society of Bengal, Calcutta the volumes have now been reprinted.
The Bachchans: A Saga of Excellence Hardcover
$185.00The Bachchans – probably no other family in India has had the kind of hold on the Indian psyche as they have. The cultural landscape of India is incomplete without a mention of the Bachchans. And though Amitabh Bachchan is the most celebrated of them all, the Bachchan family’s engagement with India’s socio-cultural space starts well before him – in the early years of the twentieth century, with the birth of Harivansh Rai Bachchan – and continues into the third decade of the twenty-first, with the imminent film debut of Agastya Nanda.
S.M.M. Ausaja’s The Bachchans: A Saga of Excellence is a stunning visual chronicle of this history spanning over a hundred years. The author goes back in time to Allahabad in the early 1900s to document the life and times of Harivansh Rai Bachchan, his literary accomplishments with the publication of Madhushala, the tragic death of his first wife and his marriage to Teji (Sarojini Naidu introduced the couple to the Nehru family as ‘the poet and the poem’!), and the birth of their sons Amitabh and Ajitabh.
This pictorial biography then goes on to record the remarkable film careers of Amitabh Bachchan (arguably, the greatest star India has ever produced), his wife Jaya Bhaduri (who was a bigger star before her husband went through the stratosphere), and their son Abhishek Bachchan and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai (who were among the biggest stars of the new millennium).
In The Bachchans, Ausaja, a sort of Boswell to Amitabh Bachchan, archiving all film-related memorabilia pertaining to the actor, offers the ultimate fanboy tribute to the family with a dazzling kaleidoscope of never-before-seen images – posters, stills and photographs – that are bound to thrill and mesmerize anybody interested in the story of a remarkable family.
Gorgeously designed and beautifully produced, this is not just a collector’s edition but also a visual history, like no other, of an important page of India’s popular culture. About the Author

Review
No other author mixes domestic, fantastic and esoteric elements into such weirdly bewitching shades. ― Financial Times
It’s safe to say that there’s no one like Murakami. ― Literary Review
Murakami is a master storyteller and he knows how to keep us hooked ― Sunday Times
Beguilingly enigmatic…Murakami blends science fiction, gothic novel, noir mystery, horror, and coming-of-age story… deftly weaves ordinary reality―“something you have to choose by yourself, out of several possible alternatives”―with a shadow world that is at once eerie and beautiful. Astonishing, puzzling, and hallucinatory as only Murakami can be, and one of his most satisfying tales. ― Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
Regular readers will delight in the Easter eggs nested in an unsettling quest spun from Murakami’s long-patented dream logic ― Observer
About the Author
In 1978, Haruki Murakami was twenty-nine and running a jazz bar in downtown Tokyo. One April day, the impulse to write a novel came to him suddenly while watching a baseball game. That first novel, Hear the Wind Sing, won a new writers’ award and was published the following year. More followed, including A Wild Sheep Chase and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, but it was Norwegian Wood, published in 1987, that turned Murakami from a writer into a phenomenon.
In works such as The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, 1Q84, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running and Men Without Women, Murakami’s distinctive blend of the mysterious and the everyday, of melancholy and humour, continues to enchant readers, ensuring his place as one of the world’s most acclaimed and well-loved writers.
Philip Gabriel is the author of Mad Wives and Island Dreams: Shimao Toshio and the Margins of Japanese Literature and Spirit Matters: The Transcendent in Modern Japanese Literature and has translated many novels and short stories by the writer Haruki Murakami and other modern writers. He is recipient of the Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission Prize for the Translation of Japanese Literature (2001) for his translation of Senji Kuroi’s Life in the Cul-de-Sac, and the 2006 PEN/Book-of-the-Month Club Translation Prize for his translation of Murakami’s Kafka on the Shore.
The Collected Works of Atul Ga: The Checklist Manifesto + Better + Being Mortal + Complications Paperback
$43.00Combined box set of all the bestselling books by Atul Gawande, acclaimed surgeon and writer
In The Checklist Manifesto, Gawande finds a remedy to tackle immensely complex problems with the humblest of techniques: the checklist. Through riveting stories from the fields of medicine to disaster response, investment banking to skyscraper construction and businesses, he demonstrates how the checklist can help anyone improve their own and others’ lives.
In Being Mortal, Gawande argues that an acceptance of mortality must lie at the center of the way we treat the dying. Using his experiences (and missteps) as a surgeon, comparing attitudes toward aging and death in the West and in India, he provides an extraordinary account of loss. Questioning, profound and deeply moving, Being Mortal is a masterpiece.
In Better, Gawande’s gripping stories take us to battlefield surgical tents in Iraq, delivery rooms in Boston, a polio outbreak in India, and malpractice courtrooms in the US. He discusses the ethical dilemma of lethal injections, examines the influence of money on modern medicine, and recounts the contentious history of hand-washing. And as in all his writing, he gives us an inside look at his own life as a surgeon.
In Complications, Gawande performs surgery on medicine itself, laying bare a science that is complicated, perplexing and profoundly human. Dramatic true stories explore how mistakes occur, why good surgeons go bad, and what happens when medicine comes up against the inexplicable. Product description
