  Galileo Galilei believed in the power of scientific observation over traditional ideas. His close study of the night sky helped support the theory that planets move around the sun. His defiant personality made him powerful enemies. This graphic biography covers Galilei's life from his early work with projectiles to his revolutionary look at the cosmos. It also depicts the backlash to his bold ideas and his trial under the Inquisition.

  Gods and demons had always fought amongst themselves according to Hindu Mythology. This story presents that universal conflict between good and evil, problematizing the very concepts of good and evil. It challenges the dominant discourse of the gods (representing the upper caste, aristocratic, capitalist class of the society) that they were the up keepers of law and the rakshshas were the miscreants. This story oscillates between an epic past and contemporary times but is more dominantly set in modern sub urban landscape of the present decade. The age old battle plays out in the modern city/mofussil backdrop and involves angles of love, revenge and betrayal.

  To allow so young and delicate a girl to tramp England aimlessly in search of some vague and secret information which seemed to be her erratic father's object, was, we decided, an utter impossibility; therefore, following that night of our first meeting at Helpstone, Burton and his daughter remained our guests for a week, and, after many consultations and some little economies, we were at last successful in placing Mabel at school, a service for which we later received her heartfelt thanks. ...That the precious document, or whatever it was, sewn up in the wash-leather which the dead man had so carefully guarded through all those years was now missing was, in itself, a very suspicious circumstance, while Mabel's vague but distinct apprehensions, which she either would not or could not define, now aroused my suspicions that Burton Blair had been the victim of foul play.
