ABOUT THE BOOK:- South Asia is one of the most poorly governed regions of the world, with the exclusion of a voiceless majority, unstable political regimes and poor economic management. This book covers a wide range of internal crisis, conflicts and confrontation so dangerous to the security and survival of the South Asian states. It discusses all the simmering separatists, extremists, terrorists' movements and insurgencies in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and the much-debated autocratic democracy in Maldives. It adopted different approaches to develop an understanding of the existing internal crises from various angles. South Asia's existing internal crisis are deep rooted in its turbulent and unfinished process of state building, unsettled social equations and political hierarchies' assertion for identity and autonomy on the basis of ethnic, linguistic, religious and cultural; and ownership of the territories that sharpen the ethnic and sectarian violence and defies all attempts of stabilisation. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Dr. Madhu Kumari, Associate professor of Political Science, continuously involves in research works and as an author, she has many books to her credit: Gandhi, Nehru, Tagore and Ambedkar- Ek Chintan; Political Theory and Indian Political System; Society, State and Government-Indian Constitution and Political Science Manual.

Signed by the author on the title page. Alan Greenspan (born March 6, 1926) is an American economist who served as Chair of the Federal Reserve of the United States from 1987 to 2006. He currently works as a private adviser. First appointed Federal Reserve chairman by President Ronald Reagan in August 1987, he was reappointed at successive four-year intervals until retiring on January 31, 2006, after the second-longest tenure in the position. Greenspan came to the Federal Reserve Board from a consulting career. Although he was subdued in his public appearances, media coverage raised his profile to a point that several observers likened him to a "rock star". Democratic leaders of Congress criticized him for politicizing his office because of his support for Social Security privatization and tax cuts, which they felt would increase the deficit. With the distillation of a life's worth of wisdom and insight into an elegant expression of a coherent worldview, this book will stand as Greenspan's personal and intellectual legacy. The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World is a 2007 memoir of former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan. Published on September 17, 2007, the book debuted at the top of the New York Times Bestseller list for hardcover nonfiction. The first half of The Age of Turbulence is an autobiographical chronology of Greenspan's life that shows readers the people and circumstances that helped shape and guide Greenspan-from hours of clarinet and saxophone practice to living-room philosophy with Ayn Rand. The second half of the book retells several major economic events (primarily within the United States) that have occurred over the past half century. It details his economic endeavors and personal observations while serving under various U.S. presidents and are often intermingled with the economic events. The latter half of the book also includes an analysis and brief history of major global economic constructs-Marxist communism, populism, and various mutations of market capitalism-along with Greenspan's opinions about their relative merits and shortcomings. The Economist considered the book to be "first-rate", noting that "it engages on different levels: it is intelligent in a way that few popular books on economics manage or even try to be; and, wonder of wonders, it is a good read". The New York Times's David Leonhardt said that it was "surprisingly frank" and often "downright entertaining". In the New York Review of Books, Benjamin M. Friedman was largely praising of the book, describing it as "clearly written and easy to read and understand" and says that Greenspan is "forthright in sharing his views on not only policy issues but also the personalities of many of the people with whom he worked during his time in office. His opinions frequently run counter to his well-known Republican political loyalties, which he also makes no effort to hide", The Penguin Press, 2007, 3<

Paperback / softback. New. Many of our global economic problems started in 1971...when President Richard Nixon took the U.S. off the gold standard. Throughout history, when a government went off the gold standard, an age of turbulence began. In 1997, Robert's book Rich Dad Poor Dad stunned readers stating, "Your house is not an asset." As howls of protest went up around the world, the book went on to become an international bestseller and the #1 personal finance book of all time. Rich Dad Poor Dad is not a book on real estate. It is a book about the importance of financial education. Rich Dad Poor Dad was written to prepare you and your loved ones for the financial turbulence Robert's rich dad saw coming. In 2007, as homes declined in value or were lost to foreclosure, millions of homeowners painfully discovered the wisdom of words of Robert's rich dad. Today we are all aware that a home can be a liability. Today we know a home can go up or down in value. Today, we all know a person can lose money investing in the stock market. Today we all know our money can go down in value and that even savers can be losers. This is why financial intelligence is more important today than ever before. In a world of financial turbulence, your best asset is financial IQ., 6, Solid binding. Clean interiors free of markings. Light shelf wear at corners. Small spot on edge of pages. 207 pages- 9" X 6" - Rising through the social hardships that ensued the Great Depression and World War II, Betty Owen Trimbles "The Path from the Cellar" is the personal, written account of one woman's journey through the great hardship and economical instability that faced the American culture in the first half of the 20th century. A banquet of truth and emotional mayhem, Betty's book utilizes her own story of unfiltered emotion to give an understanding of how Americans coped with personal adversity and found the courage and strength to keep hope alive. Giving a view of the culture, values and aspirations of the common man, it shows how creativity, imagination and personal talent moved people through turbulent times and laid a foundation for a better tomorrow. With a focus on sustaining family life in the face of adversity finding a way to nurture children while adapting to economic collapse and global war Trimble pinpoints the unconquered spirit that must be found within in order to survive. With The Path from the Cellar, Betty Owen Trimble palpably disrobes the bitter reality of days gone by, exploring the depths to which one must travel within to begin to find hope again. The book delineates the resourcefulness and courage of the people that brought us through the first half of the Twentieth Century, Trimble explains. Having endured the noteworthy era first hand, Betty knows all too well the tarnished spirit the day can bring, thereby honoring with her book all the men and women who endured and rose above., Pentland Press, Inc, 2000, 3, Brookings Institution Press, Washington, D.C, 2003.

In the immediate aftermath of September 11, 2001, in his fourteenth year as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, Alan Greenspan took part in a very quiet collective effort to ensure that America didn't experience an economic meltdown, taking the rest of the world with it. There was good reason to fear the worst: the stock market crash of October 1987, his first major crisis as Federal Reserve Chairman, coming just weeks after he assumed control, had come much closer than is even today generally known to freezing the financial system and triggering a genuine financial panic. But the most remarkable thing that happened to the economy after 9/11 was...nothing. What in an earlier day would have meant a crippling shock to the system was absorbed astonishingly quickly. After 9/11 Alan Greenspan knew, if he needed any further reinforcement, that we're living in a new world - the world of a global capitalist economy that is vastly more flexible, resilient, open, self-directing, and fast-changing than it was even 20 years ago. It's a world that presents us with enormous new possibilities but also enormous new challenges. "The Age of Turbulence" is Alan Greenspan's incomparable reckoning with the nature of this new world - how we got here, what we're living through, and what lies over the horizon, for good and for ill-channeled through his own experiences working in the command room of the global economy for longer and with greater effect than any other single living figure. He begins his account on that September 11th morning, but then leaps back to his childhood, and follows the arc of his remarkable life's journey through to his more than 18-year tenure as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, from 1987 to 2006, during a time of transforming change. Alan Greenspan shares the story of his life first simply with an eye toward doing justice to the extraordinary amount of history he has experienced and shaped. But his other goal is to draw readers along the same learning curve he followed, so they accrue a grasp of his own understanding of the underlying dynamics that drive world events. In the second half of the book, having brought us to the present and armed us with the conceptual tools to follow him forward, Dr. Greenspan embarks on a magnificent tour de horizon of the global economy. He reveals the universals of economic growth, delves into the specific facts on the ground in each of the major countries and regions of the world, and explains what the trend-lines of globalization are from here. The distillation of a life's worth of wisdom and insight into an elegant expression of a coherent worldview, "The Age of Turbulence" will stand as Alan Greenspan's personal and intellectual legacy. 531 pages.
