  The Cooking of Books

  Ramachandra Guha

  It is not often that an author and his editor strike up a relationship which survives forty years of epistolary exchanges and intellectual sparring.  
  The strangely enduring and occasionally fractious friendship which developed between the famously outspoken historian Ramachandra Guha and his reticent editor Rukun Advani is the subject of this quite eccentric and thoroughly compelling literary memoir. 
  It started in Delhi in the early 1980s, when Guha was an unpublished PhD scholar, and Advani a greenhorn editor with Oxford University Press. It blossomed through the 1990s, when Guha grew into a pioneering historian of the environment and of cricket, while also writing his pathbreaking biography of Verrier Elwin. Over these years Advani was Guha’s most constant confidant, his most reliable reader. He encouraged him to craft and refine the literary style for which Guha became internationally known – narrative histories which have made vast areas of scholarship popular and accessible. 
  Four decades later, though he no longer publishes his books, Advani remains Guha’s most trusted literary adviser. Yet they also disagree ferociously on politics, human nature, and the shape of their commitment to India. They usually make up – because it just wouldn’t do to allow such an odd relationship to die. 
  Built around letters and emails between an outgoing and occasionally combative scholar and a reclusive editor prone to private outbursts of savage sarcasm, this book is never short of the kind of wit, humour, and drollery that has been strangled by contemporary political correctness. 
  In THE COOKING OF BOOKS, Ramachandra Guha presents an autobiography that is a testament to the power of reading, criticism, and language in shaping personal and historical narratives. It's a best-seller in the non-fiction genre, offering a unique perspective on the disciplines of the publishing industry in Asia. 
  For fans of Ron Chernow (Titan), Amartya Sen (Home in the World), Jonathan Eig (Ali), Walter Isaacson (Invent and Wander), and Sanjeev Sanyal (Land of seven rivers).

  Cryptocurrency - Everything...

  This book consists of two titles, related to bitcoin and altcoins: 
  Title 1 - A crypto wallet is a tool for storing your bitcoins. Specifically, it is software designed to keep your Bitcoin secure. This software can be run on various devices including desktop computers, laptops, and mobile phones (though currently not on Apple devices). It can also be configured to store bitcoins on physical media like thumb drives, which is a good option if you are concerned about hacking. For example, the Winklevoss twins, who have invested millions in Bitcoin, use hard drives to store their assets and keep them in a safe-deposit box. 
    
  The Winklevoss twins originally conceived the idea for a social networking site that eventually became Facebook. They collaborated with Mark Zuckerberg, who took their idea and became exceedingly successful. 
  Title 2 - In this book, I'll introduce you to the world of blockchains, exploring what they are, how they came about, their applications, and the various topics that surround them. It's not surprising that the technology behind blockchains is unfamiliar to many; it seems to be known mainly by those in the financial sector. This makes sense, as that's where the technology originated and where it continues to thrive. 
    
  But that unfamiliarity with blockchains will soon come to an end. This book will acquaint you with blockchains and provide the information you need to understand this promising technology. I assure you that the content here is thoroughly researched and carefully considered, all to equip you with the knowledge you need.
