Mukta Tanwar
Changing Status of Women in Central Asia : a Comparative Study of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan [Hardcover]
ABOUT THE BOOK:- The present book critically observes the status of women in Central Asia after 1990's. The effects of Soviet legacy in the present context are also analyzed at extent. In contemporary transition period they are facing many problems including revival of religion, new democratic political order, capitalist economic system and traditional social system. These new changes have both negative and positive effects over the lives of women also. A modest attempt has been made to compare the differences in contemporary position of Kazakh and Uzbek women despite of their common USSR legacy and Islamic society. The relevance of this book can be judged both in the context of Islamic and Socialist Feminist theories and practices to understand patriarchal organization in Central Asian states. The streams of Socialist and Islamic Feminism are critically analyzed and further the way it made contribution in women's emancipation. Socialist feminism generally took every step in women emancipation in national interests rather than in women's interest. Though the book broadly deals with the position of women in Central Asia, but at the same time its focus is to study Kazakh and Uzbek women. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Mukta Tanwar did her M.Phil on the topic Russia-India-China Triangle: An Appraisal from Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra in 2007. She joined Centre for Russian and Central Asian Studies, School of International Studies, JNU, New Delhi for her doctoral studies and completed her Ph.D in 2011. The present book is based on her Ph.D thesis and this publication is financially supported by ICSSR, New Delhi. At present, she is working as Associate Consultant (Gender) in Haryana School Shiksha Pariyojna Parishad, Panchkula where her key concern is to uplift the status of girl education in schools of Haryana. She is extremely enthused with the present government's Beti Bachao-Beti Padhao program. She is also a Nodal Officer of this program in the state. Besides, she has a very keen interest in Women and Gender Studies and International Relations. She also participated and presented papers in a number of seminars and conferences of her area study.

WHILE OTHER PEOPLE SLEEP: A Sharon McCone mystery.
N.Y.: Mysterious Press 1998. 1st edition July 1998 so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. "In the old days Sharon McCone was a scrappy idealistic investigator working out of a rambling old San Francisco Victorian that housed the All Souls legal collective. In the 1990s All Souls is a conventionally successful law firm and McCone is on her own. These days her profile is a lot higher thanks to a People magazine article and her digs both personal and professional are decidedly more upscale. But the price of fame is higher than she knows; somewhere there's a woman with Sharon's face Sharon's name and a supply of Sharon's business cards. The impersonator isn't just drumming up business on her own--she's sleeping with McCone's clients and then stealing from them destroying the agency's reputation and threatening Sharon's family and friends as well as her livelihood. The mystery woman may even have found a way to screw up Sharon's relationship with Hy Ripinsky her long-time lover. What's certain is that she knows the most intimate details of McCone's private as well as public life and that wherever Sharon goes her impersonator has somehow managed to get there first. What seemed at first like an innocent case of heroine-worship turns decidedly deadly especially since McCone has no clue as to the mystery woman's motives plans or identity." . First Edition.

Nominated for the 1994 Edgar Award for Best Novel. "Alpha female of the pack of American PIs San Francisco investigator Sharon McCone learns for herself how tough her readers have long known her to be in this her 14th appearance. On a case that winds through her personal history Sharon hides out in her childhood home near San Diego and crosses not always legally the U.S.-Mexican border to end up facing a future quite different than what she--or we--might have predicted. All Souls Legal Cooperative long Sharon's employer is assuming a corporate air; the partners want their unconventional investigator to move into a more administrative position.

She traces him to a slick security firm for whom he apparently agreed to deliver the $2 million ransom to the abductors of the CEO of a biotech company about to market a cancer drug. The drug extracted from dolphin cartilage has roused the fear and ire of environmentalist groups with whom Hy had once been associated. The high-tech security outfit is convinced Hy has stolen the ransom; Sharon unsure of anything says she'll find him and get back the money. Evading their suspicious operatives and the cops she infiltrates southern California's community of illegals makes some valuable friends and fierce enemies and learns in a final breathtaking confrontation the full extent of her own resources. With a finely tuned secondary cast well-drawn settings and a satisfyingly intricate plot held firmly in hand. Muller keeps the spotlight on Sharon here. She shines. " -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book. Mysterious Press Hardcover
