Synopsis

Light or Shadow explores how life adapts to extremes of light, from sunlit forest canopies to pitch-dark caves, revealing the ingenious strategies organisms use to thrive in these contrasting environments. The book weaves together ecology, evolutionary biology, and environmental science to show how light—or its absence—shapes anatomy, behavior, and ecosystems.  
It highlights fascinating adaptations, such as cavefish losing their eyesight while developing heightened senses like electroreception, and forest plants optimizing photosynthesis through symbiotic relationships with fungi. These examples underscore the delicate balance of biodiversity and the impact of human activities, like light pollution, on these intricate systems.  
The book’s unique strength lies in its interdisciplinary approach, blending detailed case studies with broader ecological principles. It examines how divergent light conditions drive speciation and how species cooperate or compete to survive. For instance, it discusses how bioluminescent fungi create food webs in dark forests and how urban lighting disrupts nocturnal ecosystems.  
By synthesizing research from genomics, fieldwork, and lab experiments, Light or Shadow offers a comprehensive view of light as a unifying force in evolution and ecology. Written in accessible, engaging prose, the book progresses from defining photic zones to exploring specific adaptations and concluding with practical conservation strategies. It challenges readers to see light not just as a resource but as a dynamic architect of life’s complexity, making it a valuable read for anyone interested in biology, environmental science, or conservation.

    Time Bomb - Call the SWAT Team

    There is a huge bomb that is ticking down to the moment when it must go off and it’s right underneath your feet. This almost unseen Time Bomb is so massive that it will kill every man woman, child, dog, cat, birds, insects, donkeys, horses, all the fish in the sea, the whales, the dolphins, plankton, trees, plants, flowers and every other thing that lives here on this planet. 
    Time is ticking away and so I thought I’d better warn everyone. But there’s nowhere to run. We have to all take a stand by joining what I call the final SWAT Team. (Save our World Again Today) If you choose not to saddle up and fight the good fight - it’s curtains for the human race.  
    In my new book, readers will learn about how Time Flies about the universe in waves, how the waves are created by the smallest particles in the subatomic world - Chronons and how they are all connected to one another and to every particle that makes you and your life exist. 
    This is revolutionary new science based on events in my life and probably in yours that have interacted with mine in subtle ways such as the fact that you are now reading my text out of the billions upon billions of other texts on the Internet today. It's no accident, let me assure you. However, if you do not get a copy of this book in your hands within the next few minutes, time could be up for the human race, because this is the last segment of time where we have a chance to alter the future. 
    It’s ironic also that Einstein’s famous equation of - E-mc2 was the key to the production of the most destructive forces humans have ever unleashed, the nuclear weapons that today threaten the greatest mass extinction in history, but in this work, we uncover a different equation that can and will produce the opposite effects of the most creative and life-saving of forces ever known. 
    If you are a fan of major scientific breakthroughs this is the book for you

    DESCRIPTION 
    Computers have become an integral part of our education system. Computer Science is now not limited to just teaching definitions and commands. Instead, it helps the learners to understand and appreciate the varied uses of computers and its vast applications. 
    Trackpad iPRO (Ver. 4.0) series based on Windows 10 and MS Office 2019 is comprehensively designed as per the new ICSE syllabus. We believe computer education is a hands-on subject and too much of bookish knowledge can take away the pleasure of learning. All these points have been kept in mind while designing this book and to produce the content that is not only appealing but also challenging to the students. 
    
    The topics in the book have been hand picked after extensive research by a team of experts on the subject based on the utility, interest, skill, and basic and trending applications in the global market. We have designed the lessons in such a way that they can be well integrated with other subjects. Step by step approach will make it simple and easy for our students to grasp the concepts. Relevance of the topics was of prime importance throughout the compilation of the book. 
    
    
    Learning is done best when it’s fun-filled and activity-based. To ensure that the content intrigues the students at all times and keeps them interested throughout the course of the book, we have included interesting key features like Student Corner, Tech Funda, Clickipedia, Comp Caution, Reboot, One Touch Learn, Let’s Do It, Crack The Code, Hands-On, Fun In Lab, Teacher’s Corner, Worksheet, Test Sheet, Project, Speech Drill, Supplement Pages and Glossary. 
    
    These features will ensure better learning, assessment, and evaluation and enable children to take their knowledge beyond the classroom. 
    
    Sample questions of Orange Global Olympiad (Cyber) have been included to promote awareness about the national level competition. 
    
    We hope that the book contributes to the progressive development of computer aided education system and prepares our students for all upcoming challenges. We want the children to learn the concepts not only for the purpose of gaining knowledge but also to be able to find their applications. This will enable them to enrich the quality of their lives as well as others’.
