This book is a compilation of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) theory and practices, with special reference to the Indian context. Over the last few decades, which have seen the onset of globalization, emergence of the industrial sector and an increased focus on community development, much attention has been focused on the role of corporations towards developing those societies where their operations are based. The introduction and evolution of CSR theories and practice in the developed countries has given CSR theorists and practitioners the guidance to appropriately place and implement CSR initiatives to help develop their role in the developed societies. However, while ample literature exists on such CSR practices, little has been done to aid the development of CSR in developing countries. Characterized by peculiar economic, political and social settings, the developing world needed its own blueprint for how CSR works and how it could best succeed. The need for doing is especially pertinent to a country like India, which is presently at a very crucial threshold, economically, politically and socially. Given the need to contextualize CSR theory and practice to the developing context, several CSR theories and practices have been explored in this book, which will provide readers with a thorough understanding of CSR and its successful implementation.

Designed for senior undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics, this textbook offers a comprehensive exploration of measure theory and integration. It acts as a pivotal link bridging the Riemann integral and the Lebesgue integral, with a primary focus on tracing the evolution of measure and integration from their historical roots. A distinctive feature of the book is meticulous guidance, providing a step-by-step journey through the subject matter, thus rendering complex concepts more accessible to beginners. A fundamental grasp of differential and integral calculus, as well as Riemann integration, is recommended to ensure a smoother comprehension of the material.This textbook comprises 10 well-structured chapters, each thoughtfully organized to lead students from fundamental principles to advanced complexities. Beginning with the establishment of Lebesgue’s measure on the real line and an introduction to measurable functions, the book then delves into exploring the cardinalities of various set classes. As readers progress, the subtleties of the Lebesgue integral emerge, showcasing its generalization of the Riemann integral and its unique characteristics in higher dimensions.One of the book’s distinctive aspects is its indepth comparison of the Lebesgue integral, improper Riemann integral, and Newton integral, shedding light on their distinct qualities and relative independence. Subsequent chapters delve into the realm of general measures, Lebesgue-Stieltje's measure, Hausdorff ’s measure, and the concept of measure and integration in product spaces. Furthermore, the book delves into function spaces, such as 𝘓𝘱 spaces, and navigates the intricacies of signed and complex measures, providing students with a comprehensive foundation in this vital area of mathematics.
