Sinossi

Cosmic Deities explores how ancient cultures used mythology and religious beliefs to understand the cosmos, examining the fascinating intersection of celestial deities, creation myths, and early cosmological models. It reveals how civilizations worldwide, from ancient Mesopotamia to the Americas, personified stars, planets, and cosmic forces, attributing divine roles to them. 

 
These myths weren't just stories; they were early attempts to explain the universe, reflecting observations and cultural values. For example, a culture's understanding of planetary movements might be encoded in the actions of its planetary deities. 

 
The book delves into the attributes of stellar and planetary deities, analyzing creation myths and how societies mapped the heavens. Each chapter builds upon the last, first introducing fundamental concepts and then exploring thematic elements like the significance of constellations and cosmic geography. 

 
By integrating mythological analysis with historical and scientific contexts, Cosmic Deities offers a unique perspective on the origins of human curiosity about the universe and how early civilizations used available knowledge to make sense of it all.

    A gripping expose of the murky underbelly of the Indian healthcare system 
     
    95 per cent of healthcare facilities have less than five workers 
    30 million people are pushed into poverty by healthcare costs 
    9 lakh C-sections are preventable 
    7.04 lakh children under the age of five die of pneumonia and diarrhoea every year 
    For Dr Sumanth C. Raman, the numbers don't lie. Decades of witnessing the inner workings of India's healthcare industry first-hand have given him ample reason to question and challenge it. 
    In Sick Business, through personal accounts of patients, interviews with doctors and other medical professionals, and numerous reports, he unveils a chilling portrait of a healthcare system marred by vested interests, shady research, lax State intent, questionable ethics and general disarray. Overburdened public hospitals, expensive private healthcare, a rampant culture of quacks, the nexus between big pharma and doctors, a silent epidemic of surgeries and over-diagnosis-the book deals with such burning topics and more as it uncovers the truth behind the pristine façade of hospitals and the doctors who work within. 
    Sick Business is a clarion call for reform and change. A gripping expose, in the end the book equips you with some real answers and the tough questions you need to ask when your family's health-and perhaps your own-is at stake.
