This book is an enquiry into the elision of the figure of the sovereign, cotton-producing Garo in the colonial archive and its savage transformation into imperialism’s quintessential ‘primitive’ in the period between 1760 CE and 1900 CE.
The precolonial political economy of hill cotton produced by the Garos, its unhinging from the exercise of Garo sovereignty and its eventual commodification twined with the deterritorialization of the community as it made way for elephant mehals and reserved forests form the kernel of the book. This history is seen as participating in and mirroring analogous processes of colonization across vast contiguous swathes of India, including Mymensingh, Chittagong, Bhagalpur, the Khasi hills and the Cachar valley. A central theme explored is the long history of Garo rebellions and their rationality, examined in conjunction with contiguous polities such as that of the Khasis; even as the book follows the growing arc of colonial power in eastern and northeastern India as it converted territory and revenue appropriated through conquest, into dominium.
The book makes an original contribution to the historiography of the colonial state, the ‘tribe’ and primitivism by making a case for the welded histories of war, ethnogenesis, revenue extraction and anthropological knowledge otherwise often studied as disparate fields of scholarship. It therefore also offers a new interpretation of the history of the colonization of eastern and northeastern India. The book will be of interest to academics and researchers of these regions and of empire and political economy, law and ‘primitivism’, and anthropology and colonial revenue.

Pediatric rotations are a crucial part of medical education, yet didactic curricula often do not spend much time on pediatric-specific skills. Learners often enter the pediatric clinical setting with little preparation and orientation. The care of children is nuanced and specialized and requires a different approach than adult medicine. This text serves as a valuable resource for students on pediatric clinical rotations and for advanced practitioners entering pediatric clinical practice without much prior experience.
This high yield book covers the fundamental knowledge and skills required for pediatric care, including the physical, emotional, and social development of children, and the diagnosis and management of common pediatric conditions, with emphasizes on a patient-centered approach. Clinical pearls and application exercises embedded within each chapter help students prepare for real-life clinical scenarios and written examinations. The section on communication with the medical team reviews how to present pediatric patients on family-centered rounds, how to write succinct and useful notes, how to eloquently request a consult, and safely handoff a patient. The book also features practical tips on inter-professional communication, breaking bad news, and strategies to enhance learning and achieve success while working within a pediatric care team. Finally, a portion of the book is devoted to the considerations specific to the clinical settings where most learners rotate.
Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Rotations provides a detailed overview of skills required to be successful on pediatric wards and in pediatric clinics while also including the most up to date scientific and clinical information.
