Hydro-political Interactions: India-Nepal-Bangladesh
Abstract: Rivers are the only naturally occurring resource on land that threads nations though it also divides them bitterly. It’s the “preciousness' of freshwater that makes it’s “possession” an indicator of power and justifies it being a strategic commodity. Indeed, "Water in a Changing World", will assume greater salience and as it does, the drivers impacting water resources, whether climate variability and security issues or electricity-generation and migration, will need to …

Homeopathy: The Evidence and Basis of Physiological Medicine
Abstract: AbstractIt is time we looked at a fresh, new scientific model for homeopathic remedy action on living systems — one that is logically and rationally based. A paradigm that explains why homeopathy is scientifically “plausible” and how homeopathic remedies exert their biological effects primarily as nanostructures and why physiology, not pharmacology, is the most appropriate discipline for studying and validating the credo. This is imperative to bring two sequels to …
