‎History of the Later Harappans and Shilpakara Movement Volume 2 Vols. Set [Hardcover] Volume 2 Vols. Set‎

‎The author has proved that ethnically Harappan people were Dravidians, Australoids and Alpines and not Aryans. They were highly civilized, their heritage and culture very rich. They were efficient artisans, great producers and courageous traders. The book says Aryans, a white race of central Asia, reached North West India in 1700 BC. They destroyed Harappans towns, who had fled to east. The book gives information about denominational Harappan tribes who have settled in various regions of north India including Kumaon hills.

‎India's Foreign Trade From Antiquity to Date [Hardcover]‎

‎India is fast emerging as a major force in the world economy, next only to China. Many scholars have pointed out that over the next two decades, India and China will emerge as super powers. Back in the early Fifties, India was a young State, still in the process of building its economy. In those days, India's position in the world trade was insignificant. As would be apparent, the idea behind the book has been to study the export potential of each commodity, as also the countries which attract heavy import from India, both quantity-wise and value-wise. The study deals with different items of import and export, which will be of great interest to those involved in industrial and agricultural production in the country. Items that are in great demand require large-scale production. Further, these very items may have equally large demand within the country. This will require greater attention, as only surplus can be exported. While India's foreign trade in the ancient, medieval and modern periods have been dealt with by different authors, trade during the contemporary period-from 1960-61 onwards-has barely been dealt with, except by one author. The present work has been an attempt to bridge this gap. As would be apparent, writing a treatise of this nature involved a great deal of research. It involved collecting data from several government agencies and trade bodies. The present work deals not only with commodities, but also with the service sector, as also barter, which began gaining momentum during the recent global economic slowdown. I would like to acknowledge help from Dr. Baldeo Sahai, an author of about a dozen books, who lent me invaluable advice and to my daughter, Swati Prasad, for going through the manuscript.

‎Art and Culture of Himalaya [Hardcover]‎

‎A number of factors are responsible for disappearance of different art forms from the Himalayan region. The main among them are social, economical and ecological ones. The cultural invasion from outside is also one of them. During Mughal, Sikh and Rajput periods, the Himalayan art and culture was at its zenith. But during the British period, it took a nosedive. The British were rather pragmatic and matter of factly. They wasted no efforts on vain and inane aesthetics even in the building activities. They raised building rather for public schools, hospitals and other public utilities only. This volume describes the social constitution, its polyandrous marriage systems and peculiar customers and rituals , paintings, sculptures and religious practices of Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu Kashmir, Ladakh, Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan. This book is a must read for the serious students of art, culture, sociology and anthropology. About The Author:- Brigadier (Dr.) Kuldip Singh Gulia is a noted and active environmentalist. A Ph.D. in Human Ecology of the Himalayan Ecosystems, he has applied himself into sustained research in various facets of Human Ecology. Compilations of the vast storehouse of Human Ecology papers have been published in five volumes under the title “Encyclopaedia of Human Ecology”. His books Human Ecology of Sikkim and Geneses of Disasters, have been widely acclaimed in the intellectual circles for qualitative and analytical excellence. His research papers on human ecosystems of the Himalayas and of the Arid Zone of Indian Thar Desert make interesting studies.
