  EQ+MH=PH Emotions! How to live...

  “How emotional you are!”  
  So often we hear this comment from a friend or a family member.   
  Mostly we fumble as we think of a response because we do not know what to say as we cannot relate to what it means to be ‘emotional.’  
  Emotions make us human.  
  They give us information about what is going on inside us.  
  Emotional Quotient (EQ) is the level of awareness of what is taking place or going to take place. It is the ability to comprehend and use that knowledge effectively. Emotions help us reflect on how we are mentally equipped to give our life direction. Our emotional responses make us win friends, build healthy relationships or lose them. It is our EQ that allows us to stay ahead at work, and be focused and cheerful.   
  In recent times there is a lot of focus on one dimension of human well-being, physical health.  
  But then, physical health is just one part of our overall health. A partial one.  
  The equation to have a healthy life begins with a healthy and high EQ plus a healthy mind.  
  Once these two, our emotional quotient (EQ) and mental health (MH) are in place then our physical health (PH) will be in good shape. If we have a high EQ then even if we have any physical illness it will not make us stressed or discouraged to live a good and effective life. This seems understandable and logical but is very difficult to follow. This is where this book helps. Not only to open the perspective of well-being and health to have a multidimensional outlook but also to sustain it. too,

  Cold Peace - Avoiding the New...

  An urgent examination of the world barreling toward a new Cold War. 
   
   
   
  With a historian's eye and a theorist's ingenuity, Michael Doyle, whose writings on liberal peace have revolutionized modern statesmanship, cogently assesses the tectonic shifts threatening a global order that has held for more than seventy years. As tensions among China, Russia, and the US escalate perilously toward a new Cold War, Doyle introduces a radical paradigm that will facilitate the international cooperation necessary to avert the global threats of our time. 
   
   
   
  Combining dramatic history with trenchant analysis and landmark theory, Doyle explores the impacts of cyberwarfare, foreign election meddling, and the unprecedented schism of modern politics on American foreign policy. He demonstrates that there can be no success in addressing climate change without China's cooperation, nor any hope of averting nuclear catastrophe without Russia's. 
   
   
   
  In the tradition of Gaddis's The Cold War and Clark's The Sleepwalkers, Cold Peace provides one of the most necessary analyses of global power in decades.

  City Growth and Urban Form -...

  Urban growth and development have been central to human progress for centuries, shaping the landscape, economies, and cultures of societies around the world. As the global population continues to urbanize, cities are experiencing rapid expansion and transformation. This urbanization process, which involves the migration of people from rural to urban areas, is driven by a combination of economic, social, and political factors. Understanding the forces behind urban growth is essential for urban planners, policymakers, and scholars who aim to navigate the challenges and opportunities that come with it. 
  The rise of cities is closely linked to the development of agriculture, trade, and industry. In early history, cities were established as centers of commerce and governance, offering opportunities for social, political, and economic advancement. With the Industrial Revolution, cities became hubs of production, attracting large numbers of people seeking employment and better living conditions. This period marked a significant shift from agrarian economies to industrial economies, fueling the growth of urban centers across Europe and North America. 
  In the modern era, urbanization has reached unprecedented levels, with more than half of the world’s population now residing in urban areas. The growth of cities is not limited to developed countries but is also occurring rapidly in the developing world, particularly in regions of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. This has led to the expansion of megacities—urban areas with populations exceeding 10 million people—while smaller cities also experience considerable growth. The factors driving this global urbanization include the pursuit of better economic opportunities, access to education and healthcare, and the promise of improved living standards.
