Gopal uses smell to protect the memory of his sister. Journalist Kathy uses her blindness to get a clear picture of human characters. Daniel has a tongue that earns him a living but could also be his downfall. And Jamie learns to balance the benefits of t'ai chi in his search for health and happiness.

    In this new translation, Indra Sinha captures the beautiful, vivid language of the original as well as the humor that's been lost in previous versions.

    But only those who have gone through an engineering college life know that it's not completely true. There is a difference between calling yourself as an engineering graduate and an engineer. India produces millions of engineering graduates like you and me but only very few of us are actual engineers. Many of us just graduate with an engineering degree, with an artistic dream in mind. What do you think is the difference between engineers in many countries around the world and engineers from India? In other countries, if David Pascal studied electrical engineering in college, few years later you can find him working as an electrical engineer. In India, if Ram Krishnamurthy studied electrical engineering, few years later you can find him working in a completely irrelevant field like software coding, banking, photography and even movie directing. This book is not about the few engineering students in your class who love engineering. I don't hate them. In fact, I am very jealous that they study what they love. This book is about the majority of engineering graduates whose lives are wasted in engineering and is intended to tell you why you should make an attempt in pursuing your real passion, instead of being suffocated under the weight of an engineering degree. This is a story of India's Youth. Welcome to India, the land of Wasted Engineers.

    The book has three sections, the first part includes electrical engineering concepts such as DC basics and networks, AC basics and networks, electromagnetic theory, DC machines, AC machines, electrical engineering materials, and electrical machine design. It also covers topics like switchgear and protection, electrical power generation, transmission and distribution of electric power, electrical installation and wiring, economic considerations, electrical energy utilization, and electric traction. The second section covers topics under electronics- like analog and digital electronics, industrial and power electronics, and electronic components and devices. The third section discusses measurements, instrumentation, and control. It focuses on concepts related to electronics and electrical measurements and instruments, control systems, and electrical and electronic instrumentation. The book ends with a set of model test papers for practice. This book was published in 2011 by S. K. Kataria & Sons.

    

    It emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of the subject and examples have been drawn from various engineering disciplines to illustrate the basic system concepts. In particular, the book deals with the modeling of practical systems involving various hardware. Time and frequency domain techniques of the analysis and design of control systems have been discussed at length. Consisting of 16 chapters, this new edition has been improved by the addition of numerous real-world examples, and by the inclusion of PID controller design, a comparison table of long/lead compensators, industrial OPAMP compensating networks and a design example using root-locus technique."Control Systems Engineering 5e" is an outstanding text book which can be used at advanced undergraduate or post graduate level on diverse courses within the broad scope of engineering and will be a valued addition to any engineering library.

    This book is very useful for all Students

    The difference between micro and macro economics is simple. Microeconomics is the study of economics at an individual, group or company level. Macroeconomics, on the other hand, is the study of a national economy as a whole. Microeconomics focuses on issues that affect individuals and companies.

    A CD-ROM with demos, code, compiler, executables, and MATLAB examples has been added to the book. Simplicity and an easy narration style are the hallmarks of the book, which have made its previous seven editions immensely successful. Today s C programmer (still the language of choice in science, engineering, game programming and for handheld devices) has to master the complexities of the language and contend with its usage in environments like Windows, Linux, and for the Internet. This book covers these three aspects of C programming and doesn t assume any programming background. It begins with the basics and steadily builds the pace, so the reader finds it easy to handle more complicated topics later. This popular author has crafted hundreds of excellent programming examples and exercises for every aspect of C programming. ++++Features +Self-study format provides hundreds of step by step examples and exercises + Assumes no programming knowledge; starts with the basics and progresses to more difficult topics +Includes a CD-ROM with demos, code, compiler, executables, and MATLAB examples +Covers the latest programming techniques for Windows, Linux, and the Internet ++++++Selected Topics Traditional C Programming; Pointers; Complete Build Process; Low-level File I/O; Structures, Unions, Bit-fields; Bitwise Operators.
