'As for numbers, they hate nobody and nobody can afford to hate them,' says Neha's father, who is a supportive parent trying to re-instill confidence in his child. Apart from revealing the specialties of each individual number, from zero to nine, and little mathematical tricks, Shakuntala Devi has underscored another very important aspect. It is upto parents and teachers to ensure that children are initiated into a lifelong love affair with numbers. An engaging child, Neha, suddenly starts lagging in Maths when a new Maths teacher arrives and she starts converting her fear of the teacher into a terror of Maths. Matters touch the nadir when she scores a zero in a test. On the way home that day, she meets with an accident. While her parents and teachers suffer an anxious vigil till she regains consciousness, she travels to the Kingdom of Zero through her sub-conscious mind.

Download or read book Grant Morrison s 18 Days 1 written by Grant Morrison and published by Graphic India. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From legendary creator Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Batman & Robin, The Invisibles), comes the first chapter in his newest creation. 18 Days is the story of three generations of super-warriors, meeting for the final battle of their age, a climactic war that concludes the age of the gods and begins the age of man. "This is not a Lord of the Rings or a Star Wars where the good guys win because they are right. The good guys in 18 Days are forced to cheat and lie and break rules to win. Although it has fantastic, mythic trappings, this is a very modern story of realpolitik and the failure of ideals in the face of harsh truth." ¨C Grant Morrison

Download or read book THINKING ALOUD Reflections on India written by Prasoon Joshi and published by . This book was released on 2019-07 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life, for me, is a vantage point. Things exist as they are-fluid, amorphous. It's a frame of mind, an individual interpretation that gives form and makes them unique... A vantage point-layered as it is with various xperiences, metaphors and symbols-is authentic, one of its kind. And an authentic perspective is central to my being... Putting the authentic into play is not always effortless, for there is a tendency in us to selectively enforce a previously felt emotion. It requires a true seeker to constantly unpeel and reach the core.
