India and Indonesia experienced close historical and civilizational relations from the ancient times to sixteenth century ce. During the Indonesian freedom struggle, its leaders were inspired by the anti-colonial views of Indian leaders. India firmly stood for the freedom of Indonesia from the Dutch. During the post-colonial period, the bilateral relations underwent ups and downs. India’s Look East Policy of the 1990s made a phenomenal leap in both the countries’ relationship. India by leveraging its soft power, stable foreign policy, non-interference policy established trust among many South-East Asian countries and in particular Indonesia. Indonesia, being the largest country in the region, has been proved as one of the greatest allies of India. After a decade of stable governance under President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, Indonesia now has a fairly strong democratic set-up. The country made the transition after thirty-one years of dictatorship of Soeharto, under the leadership of B.J. Habibie, Abdurrhaman Wahid and Megawati Soekarnoputri. Now, when both the countries are poised to fly high after having witnessed considerable economic reforms, they need to forge stronger ties in order to further expand bilateral trade and strategic relations, being the main focus of this volume.Preface Abbreviations Message — Rizali W.

Her appearance, her pronouncements, and reputed psychic powers made her a familiar figure to many Americans and attracted an active group of devoted followers. This book was originally published under the title Old Diary Leaves. The author, Henry Steel Olcott, was rumored to be her lover. We do know that he was her confidant, biographer, and partner in the birth of the international theosophical movement. Olcott was a lawyer for the city of New York, author of People From The Other World, and reported from the New York Sun and other major newspapers of the day. The author goes beyond detailing American and Eastern spiritualism and mysticism. He includes numerous specific accounts of possession by foreign entities, reincarnation, aura projection, conjuring pictures, and phenomenally produced objects. This book is a serious conpendium of the evolution and occult happenings of the late 19th century. Madame H.P. Blavatsky observed that it was an historical fact that public interest and study in the occult blossoms in the last quarter of every century. It appears that the 20th century is reinforcing Madam Blavatsky's assertions.. Trade Paperback. Near Fine.

"The Maratha caste is originally formed from the amalgamation of families from the yeoman castes in Maharashtra. Many of them took to military service in the 16th century such as the Deccan sultanates or the Mughals. Later in the 17th and 18th centuries, they served in the armies of the Maratha empire, founded by Shivaji. The leading Maratha generals were granted fiefs by the rulers for their service. According to the Maharashtrian historian B. R. Sunthankar, and scholars such as Rajendra Vora, the "Marathas" are a "middle-peasantry" caste which formed the bulk of the Maharashtrian society together with the other Kunbi peasant caste. Vora adds that the Maratha caste is the largest caste of India and dominate the power structure in Maharashtra because of their numerical strength, especially in the rural society. " (from Wikipedia) ., State University of New York Press, 1998, New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1968. 122 Pages. This is a book in The American Problem Studies series published in 1968. Tight bright book with no marks and interior text pages are near flawless. The cover illustration is the Industrial Exposition Hall, Commercial Display Building, Hiroshima Japan, 1945, shortly after the atomic blast. Among the significant historical events of the twentieth century few surpass in dramatic impact and long-range importance the dropping of the two atomic bombs on Japan in the summer of 1945. The world at large was suddenly notified that a new era of human history had opened; with the testing of the first device at Alamogordo, New Mexico, in July 1945 and the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August, the atomic age had begun. Man now had at his control a force capable both of bringing destruction and. of doing work on an unprecedented scale. But with this new power, he soon became, to a degree, a creature of his own invention: the very existence of usable nuclear energy has been a fundamental determinant of the course of domestic and international relations since 1945. The direct impetus for the program of atomic weapons development in the United States came in 1939. Late in the summer of that year, with the world on the verge of war, two Hungarian refugee scientists, Leo Szilard and Eugene Wigner, became convinced of the need for systematic American investigation of the possible utilization of the power within the nucleus of the atom. Fearful of German research activity in this area, they persuaded Albert Einstein to sign a letter to President Roosevelt revealing that powerful new bombs might be developed and urging that American research be accelerated and given public support. In August 1942, the Manhattan Engineer District, established under the War Department, set about to develop an atomic bomb. Directed by Brigadier General Leslie R. Groves, the Manhattan Project grew to a vast size; eventually some two billion dollars were spent and some 150,000 persons employed. Huge plants were built at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and at Hanford, Washington, while laboratory research was carried on principally at the University of Chicago and at Los Alamos, New Mexico. Even before July 16, 1945, when the new bomb was first tested secretly, controversy over use of the revolutionary device was building up within the scientific community. This book is the history of the arguments regarding the morality and the fallout after the bombing.
