  Is Mars Habitable?

  Alfred Russel Wallace

  “Few persons except astronomers fully realise that of all the planets of the Solar system the only one whose solid surface has been seen with certainty is Mars.” 
  In 1907, Alfred Russel Wallace wrote the short book “Is Mars Habitable?” in response to Professor Percival Lowell's book “Mars and its Canals.” The latter seemed to invalidated the claims Wallace made in his 1902 book “Man's Place in the Universe,” in which he came to the conclusion that Mars was not habitable. 
  In order to write this new volume, he embarked on months of research, interviewed experts, and scrupulously studied the martian climate and atmospheric conditions. Wallace points out that there are no signs of water vapour in Mars’ atmosphere, and that Lowell’s analysis of its climate was seriously flawed in several other aspects, which he discusses in detail here.  
  Alfred Russel Wallace (1823-1913) was British naturalist, biologist, anthropologist, geographer and explorer. He was the first researcher to seriously try to gauge the likelihood of life on other planets, which he discussed in his 1902 “Man's Place in the Universe.”

  A riveting journey down Theodore Roosevelt's "river of doubt" with a diverse crew of adventurers, scientists, and Indigenous leaders who shine light on the past, present, and future of a natural wonder.Sam Moses took part in the adventure of a lifetime when he, along with seventeen men and two women, embarked on the Rio Roosevelt Expedition. They would follow the former president's wake down five-hundred miles of extreme whitewater into the dark heart of the Amazon. The party was guided by two chiefs from the Cinta Larga tribe—the same tribe that stalked Roosevelt's expedition in 1914—who, between rapids, tell the story of the tribe's own Trail of Tears.After the wildest whitewater is past, Moses travels with the chiefs to their village to witness the massive illegal mahogany logging from their forest, the Roosevelt Indigenous Territory. River Without a Cause puts us in the raft during those heart pounding rapid descents, as we experience the drama, dynamics, and disputes between the Bull Moose and his coleader, Brazil's most famous explorer, the rigid Colonel Candido Rondon. As the Amazon stands on the precipice of hope with the election of a new Brazilian president, River Without a Cause is a moving and galvanizing tale of adventure that is a fitting tribute to this world wonder.

  'To harness the ether for those who dwell upon the earth is one of the loveliest services that the modern age can render to humanity-Upward Radio!' 
  -Sarojini Naidu's note in the AIR visitors' book 
  'Neelesh Kulkarni and Vikrant Pande have written an immensely readable tribute to this venerable institution.' 
  -Padma Bhushan Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, musician, inventor and an acclaimed player of the Mohan Veena 
  'In this age of social media, the internet and television, if Neelesh Kulkarni and Vikrant Pande have penned a book on the influence and contribution of radio, I would rate it a brave effort. Somebody had to do it-and Neelesh and Vikrant have done it with rare authenticity.' 
  -Padma Shri Sushil Doshi, journalist, author and sports commentator 
  'This is an important book and a fascinating read. Kudos to Vikrant Pande and Neelesh Kulkarni for factually and meticulously chronicling the story of India's most-loved radio service-from the Mahatma speaking into the microphone to an AIR app today for the young.' 
  -Vasanthi Hariprakash, award-winning radio show host, journalist and entrepreneur 
   
  For decades, All India Radio or Akashvani, India's national broadcaster, has been 'the sound of India'. Be it Jawaharlal Nehru's iconic 'Tryst with Destiny' speech, shows such as Binaca Geetmala, cricket matches, movies or, more recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Mann ki Baat, AIR has been and continues to be the primary source for programmes on news, entertainment and knowledge for many Indians. But there are innumerable fascinating stories associated with the radio channel itself.  
  For instance, did you know that Rabindranath Tagore dedicated a poem to AIR called 'Akashvani', which was adopted as the Hindi name? Or that an AIR producer was one of the first civilians to be let inside the Golden Temple after Operation Blue Star? Or that noted Pakistani ghazal singer Ghulam Ali used to make his disciples listen to AIR's Urdu service to understand correct Urdu pronunciation? 
  These and many other such tales make up Akashvani: All India Radio ki ek shatabdi ki kahaniyan. With anecdotes from producers, broadcasters, radio jockeys and listeners, this book is a must-read to understand AIR's pivotal role in the average Indian's life.

  Ultimate Mind Theory

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. What if consciousness is not something we have — but something reality is made of? 
  Ultimate Mind Theory begins with a single, undeniable truth: I am conscious. From that starting point, this book constructs a layered system of logic that reaches far beyond personal insight — into the architecture of existence itself. 
  This is not a spiritual belief or philosophical guess. 
   It is a theory — complete with structure, stages, and internal checks — that dares to ask: 
  What are the 7 irreducible facts of conscious experience? 
   
   
  What laws must follow from being aware at all? 
   
   
  Why do pain, desire, and emotion obey patterns — and what are they trying to resolve? 
   
   
  Could our personal struggles reflect a much older story — one built into the nature of reality? 
   
   
  Combining deep logic with emotional clarity, Ultimate Mind Theory offers a radical yet grounded map of existence. It reinterprets karma, suffering, evolution, and the very shape of the self — not through mysticism, but through coherent, testable reasoning. 
  For those discontent with shallow answers and hungry for meaning that holds up under pressure, this book offers a challenge: 
  Start with what you know. Follow it to where you never expected.
