Wings of Courage

Most of us have had moments where we thought: ‘Why, God? Why me?’ At the age of twenty, when she was just settling into a happy married life, Charu Malik was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy, a debilitating and life-threatening disease. Within a few years, she was in a wheelchair. But then something special happened: the birth of her son, Alok, who became her reason to live and be happy. Over the next two decades, Charu’s life turned upside down again. She wondered, ‘Why would God be so cruel as to take my son away?’ Wings of Courage is a true story of how unforgiving life can be. The things we take for granted—whether being able to lift a finger or breathe normally—are no longer available to Charu. How does someone who has been bedridden for more than a decade stop blaming God for the repeated injustices dealt to her and find the courage to move on? You should meet her, dear reader. Even today, she has a perpetual smile on her face. If you can’t meet Charu, then journey with her as she chronicles her life in this book. She accepts God’s will but refuses to surrender to her illness. She instead reserves her every assisted breath to help whoever crosses her path through her charitable trust. Her life is a beacon for those who give up at the slightest inconvenience and teaches everyone to fight for this blessing called LIFE.

Bonsai Culture

The age-old Japanese art of dwarfing and shaping trees in shallow pots, bonsai, has come to India very recently. It is a subject not formerly practiced much here, and therefore is, only now being described in book form. So far, the guiding literature available to the enthusiastic beginner has been mainly books written abroad, dealing with flora and climatic conditions quite alien to ours. There has, therefore, been a crying need for a book based entirely on Indian conditions for the benefit of the Indian reader. Bonsai Culture has been written from Leila Dhanda’s personal experience of growing bonsai in India over a number of years, and has entailed experimentation and research in the subject. The book is a lucid step by step guide to the prospective grower of bonsai. The various methods of starting this hobby, and suitable plans for making bonsai are given. The styles in which trees may be grown; the properties and values of soils; suitable containers, accessories and tools required are described. The techniques of pruning and trimming; ‘shaping’ and ‘potting’ ; and details of daily care and maintenance which are very vital for the bonsai culturist, have been clearly explained. . In the 3rd edition a lot of new additions of text & photographs in black & white & colour have been done, the new edition is much more exhaustive than the earlier ones.
