How much do you know about Greek architecture? Roman? Gothic? The Renaissance? Modernism? Perhaps more importantly, do you know how these are connected or how one style evolved to become another? Or what happened historically during each of these periods? Architectural History Retold is your roadmap for your journey through architectural history. Offering a fresh take on what the author calls the ‘Great Enlightenment project’, it traces the grand narrative of western architecture in one concise, accessible volume. Starting in Ancient Greece and leading up to the present day, Paul Davies' unconventional, engaging style brings the past back to life, helping you to think beyond separate components and styles to recognise ‘the bigger picture’. The author is an academic and journalist with three decades of experience in introducing students to architectural history. The book is based on his successful entry-level course which has used the same unstuffy approach to break down barriers to understanding and engagement and inspire generations of students.

Geneticists have suddenly become historians, and the hard evidence in our DNA has blown the lid off what we thought we knew. Acclaimed science writer Adam Rutherford explains exactly how genomics is completely rewriting the human story—from 100,000 years ago to the present.

Hole In Heaven...!, was staged in the Auditorium of Vishwa Jyoti Gurukul Varanasi, on the 'Philosophers' Day. It enabled the audience to reflect on the perennial theme of Good and Evil. The play is an amalgamation of traditionalism and modernism; romanticism and realism; history and mystery; prose and poetry. (Alok Nag, Dean of Studies, Vishwa Jyoti Gurukul, Varanasi) Blended with philosophical musings and Greek mythological stir, Stubborn Stone...!, has fascinated me. It is a play with melodious dialogues, incorporating in its realm religious values and secular outlooks. As a director of this drama, I would say, I had absorbed the story and accommodated it according to the taste of people from different walks of life. The performance of the actors left the audience spell-bound. (Dr. Ajesh Thomas, Director of the Play) Rebellious Rivulet...!, is a play based on the theme of breaking one's boundaries for the sake of selfless service of other creatures. This play was performed at St. Paul's School, Bijainagar, Rajasthan by the students of the same school. Popular music-bits, songs, and dances were added to it, as interludes, in order to make the play audience-friendly. As a consequence, both educated as well as illiterates, in and around the township, enjoyed it. (Sejal M.S.A, Voice-Organizer of the Play)
