Download or read book Reality of Life written by Syed Khasimuddin and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2017-07-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author was born in Hyderabad, India, into a lower middle-class family. He got his high school education from a Catholic Missionary school, the best in town, and went on to get a bachelors and masters degree in entomology. He then got into the University of California at Riverside and earned a PhD in entomology under the supervision and guidance of Prof. Paul H. DeBauch, a world authority in biological control. Growing up in India with proper social/ethical values instilled by his elders and his school gave him the background to lead a decent life in different parts of the world. His professional career started after his masters and includes research and teaching in entomology in India, Kenya, Zimbabwe, England (Oxford University), Jordan (with the USAID), and USA (California) where he primarily worked for the state of California as a research scientist. His work in Kenya was with an international research organization (UN funded). He has eighteen scientific publications to his credit, published in internationally known/recognized scientific journals. In his social life, he has been deeply involved in community work and drafted to lead several institutions/organizations throughout his adult life. He is also the founder of an Islamic school (nationally recognized) and a Muslim cemetery in Sacramento, California. Retired in 2009, he devotes most of his time to community work. This current venture is an effort to convey to the reader the down-to-earth meaning and the real values of life, the understanding of some of the natural sciences from a laymans perspective, and above all, leading a content life.

Download or read book Socializing Identities through Speech Style written by Haruko Minegishi Cook and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2008-08-21 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the perspective of language socialization and a theory of indexicality, this book explores ways in which learners of Japanese as a foreign language and their Japanese host families socialize their identities through style shift between the masu and plain forms in a homestay context. Going beyond the usual assumption that the masu form is a polite speech marker, the book analyzes the masu form as an index of various social identities and activities. The book discusses both socialization through speech styles and socialization to use an appropriate speech style. Qualitative analysis of dinnertime conversations demonstrates how learners are implicitly and explicitly socialized into the norms of style shift in Japanese in interaction with their host family members.

Download or read book Redefining the Immigrant South written by Uzma Quraishi and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early years of the Cold War, the United States mounted expansive public diplomacy programs in the Global South, including initiatives with the recently partitioned states of India and Pakistan. U.S. operations in these two countries became the second- and fourth-largest in the world, creating migration links that resulted in the emergence of American universities, such as the University of Houston, as immigration hubs for the highly selective, student-led South Asian migration stream starting in the 1950s. By the late twentieth century, Houston's South Asian community had become one of the most prosperous in the metropolitan area and one of the largest in the country. Mining archives and using new oral histories, Uzma Quraishi traces this pioneering community from its midcentury roots to the early twenty-first century, arguing that South Asian immigrants appealed to class conformity and endorsed the model minority myth to navigate the complexities of a shifting Sunbelt South. By examining Indian and Pakistani immigration to a major city transitioning out of Jim Crow, Quraishi reframes our understanding of twentieth-century migration, the changing character of the South, and the tangled politics of race, class, and ethnicity in the United States.
