  5,000 years of history—from the Bhagavad Gita to Bollywood—fill this masterful portrait of the world's most populous nation and a rising global power. 
   
   
   
  India—a cradle of civilization with five millennia of history, a country of immense consequence and contradiction—often defies ready understanding. What holds its people together—across its many cultures, races, languages, and creeds—and how has India evolved into the liberal democracy it is today? 
   
   
    
  From the Harappan era to Muslim invasions, the Great Mughals, British rule, independence, and present-day hopes, John Zubrzycki distills India's colossal history into a gripping true story filled with legendary lives: Alexander the Great, Akbar, Robert Clive, Tipu Sultan, Lakshmi Bai, Lord Curzon, Jinnah, and Gandhi. India's gifts to the world include Buddhism, yoga, the concept of zero, the largest global diaspora—and its influence is only growing. Already the world's largest democracy, in 2023, India became the most populous nation. 
   
   
    
  Can India overcome its political, social, and religious tensions to be the next global superpower? As the world watches—and wonders—this Shortest History is an essential, clarifying must-listen.

  Party People - Candidates and...

  Candidates are the literal "face" of political parties, yet they are not wedded to them permanently: candidates can enter or leave politics, switch parties, move along or stay behind when parties split or merge. Even in parties that look stable, candidate change happens below the surface, ultimately altering what the parties stand for. Inspired by evolutionary theories, Party People: Candidates and Party Evolution conceptualizes candidates as "party genes" and develops a candidate-based approach to party evolution. Tracking candidates between elections and parties opens up new perspectives on party development in complex and dynamic settings in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and beyond. Based on a new database of 200,000 electoral candidates from over sixty elections across nine CEE democracies, this book presents a groundbreaking study of party evolution using candidate change as an indicator of party change. Allan Sikk and Philipp Köker offer a series of methodological and conceptual advances for the measurement of candidate turnover, party fission and fusion, programmatic change, and party leadership change; the resulting analyses make a significant contribution to the study of CEE party politics as well as to the general scholarship on elections, parties, and political change.

  Life as a Silent Gen - Stories...

  The Silent Generation, born between the mid-1920s and the early 1940s, is often characterized by its quiet strength and resilience. Unlike the more outspoken Baby Boomers or the politically vocal Millennials, members of this generation are sometimes referred to as the “silent” because they were raised in an era where conformity and restraint were the societal norms. Their lives unfolded during some of the most transformative and tumultuous events of the 20th century, including the Great Depression, World War II, and the early stages of the Cold War. 
  Growing up in the midst of economic hardship, many from the Silent Generation experienced a world of scarcity, hard work, and sacrifice. The Great Depression shaped their values, instilling a sense of frugality, a strong work ethic, and an appreciation for the basics of life. These formative experiences molded a generation that was deeply loyal, resourceful, and able to persevere through difficult circumstances. As children, they witnessed the turmoil of the 1930s, and as young adults, they were called upon to contribute to the war effort during World War II. 
  Yet, despite the challenges they faced, the Silent Generation was also a time of growth and progress. It was a generation that saw the advent of many technological and social changes, although their response to these innovations was often more cautious compared to younger generations. They witnessed the rise of television, the automobile culture, and, later, the early days of the space race and computing. Their era was also one of profound social change, as the civil rights movement and the women’s liberation movement began to take root, though many from the Silent Generation remained resistant to these shifts.
