First published in 1933 Renascent India aims to explain the how and why of the Indian problem and it really succeeds in explaining them, by marshalling all the relevant facts of hundred years from 1833-1932. The book represents inside knowledge and is written with real insight and sympathy from the Indian point of view. H. C. E. Zacharias makes available a mass of hitherto inaccessible material (including two unpublished letters from the late Edwin S. Montagu) and his book constitutes a scholarly treatise, almost the first reference book on the subject. The narrative reads like a thrilling story and rivets the reader’s attention from first to last. This book is an important archival resource about the British India and will be of interest to scholars and researchers of colonial history, Indian history, British history, and postcolonial studies.
Cultural history of 19th century India, with special reference to Bengal.
Indian Renaissance: British Romantic Art and the Prospect of India is the first comprehensive examination of British artists whose first-hand impressions and prospects of the Indian subcontinent became a stimulus for the Romantic Movement in England; it is also a survey of the transformation of the images brought home by these artists into the cultural imperatives of imperial, Victorian Britain. The book proposes a second - Indian - Renaissance for British (and European) art and culture and an undeniable connection between English Romanticism and British Imperialism. Artists treated in-depth include James Forbes, James Wales, Tilly Kettle, William Hodges, Johann Zoffany, Francesco Renaldi, Thomas and William Daniell, Robert Home, Thomas Hickey, Arthur William Devis, R. H. Colebrooke, Alexander Allan, Henry Salt, James Baillie Fraser, Charles Gold, James Moffat, Charles D'Oyly, William Blake, J. M. W. Turner and George Chinnery.
The freedom movement and its fulfillment depended on Indians knowing their country. This book by Shri B.P. Singh will enable Indians to know India's past, its present and its future. A novel effort towards understanding of the relationship between cultural and political forces that determined India's freedom movement. It was Mahatma Gandhi more than others who brought the Indian National Congress close to the common people. In the process some age old practices of untouchability, caste discrimination and denial of education to certain classes of people were severely challenged. A rare book which delineates the connection between politics and composite culture.

The entire science of yoga owes its origin to the Vedic psychology. At present mankind is passing through a crisis which can be met only at the deepest psychological level. In this context, the Veda has contemporary relevance.The author has presented the quintessence of the Vedic message in a few brief chapters, and the language is deliberately non-technical.
