"I'm trying to meditate one day but urgent thoughts keep intruding. Don't forget to take cupcakes to school I have to prepare for my presentation for the wellness conference Is that lunch with the other moms tomorrow or next week? My to-do list is stampeding through my mind, trampling any chance of tranquility. I feel overwhelmed, yes, but there's more: I feel...guilty. Guilty that I'm taking on too much, guilty that I'm not doing anything well, guilty that I'm giving short shrift to my kids, my husband, my job. And what about you, Mallika? a quiet voice asks. How are you shortchanging yourself?" Living with Intent is a chronicle of Mallika Chopra's search to find more meaning, joy, and balance in life.

This book addresses the instabilities that growing industries face in developing countries, especially Nepal. Also, what happens when industries die out? It questions the rickety ride to industrialization and development - if at all it is avoidable? The author delves deep into its impact on human lives - what happens to those hundreds of thousands of people whose livelihoods are dependent on these industries? How do they inculcate new skillsets to suit changing requirements? What future awaits those who leave the country in search of a better tomorrow? The author challenges the existing perspective that the Maoist movement was essentially a rural, guerrilla warfare. She explains how the Maoist-led labour uprising in Nepal following the death of the garment industry was embedded in a broader political upheaval that was essentially urban in nature and was more about national politics than everyday politics in the margins.

It’s never been a better time to be a food lover. We binge Bake Off, follow foodie influencers, queue for trending hotspots and scroll endlessly for ideas on what to cook next. But for all this appetite, how much do we really know about what goes on behind the scenes with our food? And what can we really do to change things? That’s where this handbook comes in. In Good Taste is a guide to the issues shaping our edible world today. It’s not exhaustive and it’s not meant to be preachy. It’s a starting point to help us see the bigger picture and find our place in it. Starting with a bird’s eye view of how the food system works (and why it urgently needs transforming), the book then covers: • The players: Who holds the power, makes decisions and to what extent, and what food policy means for our everyday lives. • The people: How global trade and colonisation created inequality and continue to shape what we eat – and who gets left behind. • The planet: How we got here – and what’s at stake for the environment and the climate. • Positive, practical change: Tangible ways food lovers can make an impact with what’s on our plates and beyond. If enough of us take an interest, we become powerful ingredients in making a difference in what really matters in food and drink today.
