Synopsis

Manga Evolution explores the captivating journey of Japanese comics, known as manga, from their historical roots to their current status as a global cultural phenomenon. Delving into art history, the book reveals how early Japanese art forms, such as emakimono scrolls and ukiyo-e prints, laid the foundation for manga's unique visual storytelling techniques. It also highlights the pivotal role of Osamu Tezuka, often called the "god of manga," in shaping the conventions that define the medium today. The book examines how manga evolved alongside Japan's socio-political changes, particularly after World War II, leading to diverse genres like shonen and shojo. It further analyzes the globalization of manga, exploring its spread beyond Japan and its adaptation in different cultural contexts through translation and digital platforms. By tracing this evolution, Manga Evolution offers invaluable insights into global media, cultural exchange, and the enduring influence of this dynamic art form on animation, video games, and various aspects of popular culture.

    A raw, bold and unfiltered exploration of sex, love, and society. 
     
    It is time to get sex out of the closet. 
    Is it better to have unsatisfying sex than to masturbate? Is it okay to seek sexual satisfaction outside marriage? Do women really lose interest in sex after menopause?

Urging readers to rethink deep-rooted norms, it encourages open conversations about sex and relationships. Packed with eye-opening insights, it also offers guidance on understanding a partner's sexual needs. 
    And what does the title of the book---The Toilet Seat---have to do with all this? Read on to find out why this phenomenal book became a runaway Tamil bestseller.

    Bhagat Singh was only 23 years old when he was executed in 1931 for his role in the fight for India’s independence. A fiery revolutionary and a committed socialist, Singh’s acts of courage and his ideals left an indelible mark on the Indian freedom struggle; a testament of which is the significance and popularity of the ‘Enquilaab Zindabad’ slogan. A hundred years later, his influence has only grown, not waned, and his writings and speeches continue to be read, studied, and shared for their inspired, and inspiring, vision of a society founded on the principles of democracy, equality, and moral courage. "Why I Am An Atheist and Other Works", which includes additional letters and messages, delves into his thoughts on religion, politics, and the nature of the struggle for freedom. In these writings, Bhagat Singh reflects on his rejection of blind faith, his embrace of rationalism, and his deep commitment to secularism and social justice. His sharp intellect, unyielding courage, and unwavering ideals make this a compelling read for anyone interested in ideas of revolution, secularism, and social change.

    A compelling study into the history and lasting influence of enslaved Native people in early South Carolina. 
     
     
     
    In 1708, the governor of South Carolina responded to a request from London to describe the population of the colony. This response included an often-overlooked segment of the population: Native Americans, who made up one-fourth of all enslaved people in the colony. Yet it was not long before these descriptions of enslaved Native people all but disappeared from the archive. 
     
     
     
    In Enslaved Native Americans and the Making of Colonial South Carolina, D. Andrew Johnson argues that Native people were crucial to the development of South Carolina's economy and culture. By meticulously scouring documentary sources and creating a database of over 15,000 mentions of enslaved people, Johnson uses a uniquely interdisciplinary approach to reconsider the history of South Carolina and center the enslaved Native people who were forced to live and work on its plantations. Johnson also employs spatial analysis and examines archaeological evidence to study Native slavery in a plantation context.

    The Mahabharata, one of India's most cherished epics, has fascinated generations. The age-old saga of warring cousins-the valiant Pandavas and the formidable Kauravas-has left an indelible mark on our collective imagination. Yet, beneath the stories of valour and villainy lie complex human emotions that challenge our ideas about 'good' and 'evil'. Can the virtuous always conquer the malevolent? Are the Kauravas truly the embodiment of darkness, while the Pandavas exude righteousness? Does Dharma triumph in the end? 
    In Dwapar Katha: The Stories of the Mahabharata, Sudipta Bhawmik delves deep into the intricacies of human nature as he explores the psyches of an eclectic cast of characters, unearthing their motivations and desires. He immerses us in their ceaseless inner struggles on a battlefield more profound than Kurukshetra. Feel the seething anger of Bheem as he rages against the silent Yudhishtir during Draupadi's disrobing and grieve with Duroyadhan when he loses his dear friend Karna in the war. Explore the concepts of Dharma and Karma along with the Pandavas, as Sudipta unearths age-old tales of the Vana Parva, where rishis share life lessons with the exiled Pandavas. 
    Rooted in Sudipta's immensely popular podcast, which has recorded over 20 million downloads, Dwapar Katha is a delight to read. The captivating prose and stunning illustrations breathe new life into this timeless tale where darkness and light intertwine and heroes are often indistinguishable from villains. The Mahabharata has never been more enchanting, thought-provoking and alive.

    “A captivating and different kind of story” about the life of Bugsy Siegel’s godson, from the author “who captured his voice” (Nick Pileggi, author/screenwriter of Goodfellas and Casino). 
     
    In 1944 Brooklyn, newborn Michael J. Hardy is rejected by his mother so she can run with gangster Bugsy Siegel, Hardy’s godfather. Shirley Rook rose to the top of the criminal ranks. As the Queen of New York City crime, she laundered Mob money, ran the city’s largest bookmaking operation, and handed payouts to dirty cops, politicians, and judges. 
     
    To win his mother’s love and respect, Hardy became a fearless gangster. Throughout his career as a mercenary, he robbed banks and drug dealers alike, ran a kidnapping ring, and even became a hired gun. At his lowest, he ended up doing time for his mother’s counterfeiting operation in Mexico’s most dangerous prison. 
     
    Hardy’s criminal code of conduct combines elements of tough Ukrainian Jew and warm Southern Baptist, whether dealing with family and friends or fellow inmates during a combined twenty-six years spent in prisons and jails. He maintained this characteristic gregarious strength throughout his astonishing life in which Hardy was shot eleven times, committed fourteen hits for the Mob, twice wore wires for Rudy Giuliani to nab dirty cops, wrote a letter to JFK to get out of military prison, choked the Hillside Strangler, shared prison time with notorious criminals, and even spent ten years in Hollywood, cast in non-speaking roles in B-movies. 
     
    “A fascinating character study of an unapologetic criminal. David S. Larson masterfully weaves this tale in Michael Hardy’s own words, resulting in a powerful, inside story of a gangster’s life.” —Cathy Scott, Los Angeles Times-bestselling author
