Sahyadri Range, mountains of the Western Ghats, in Maharashtra.
Not long ago, when people asked me about myself, I found it really easy to explain what I did. Now after all these years when I sat down to write about me for my book, it did not seem as simple and straight forward. I took time to gather my thoughts. I have been, and believe I continue to be, an entrepreneur at heart. It’s been over a couple of decades since I stopped working for others and I believe it’s the best decision I took back then. I just feel comfortable being my own boss with all the attendant risks. I have been a sales person and will continue to be that all my life. I am selling all the time- be it paint, television, ice cream or my training workshops. I have been training and teaching, it seems like for a really long time; and I love it. I love hearing my own voice and having an audience in front of me. Then I find that all through my journey of selling, training and teaching, there is one thing I have done with consummate ease and some success, and that has been my ability to tell stories. I realize that in all my avatars, my entire success has hinged on how I am able to weave stories. So, maybe it would be right to call myself a story teller…
Imaginary Maps presents three stories from noted Bengali writer Mahasweta Devi in conjunction with readings of these tales by famed cultural and literary critic, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak. Weaving history, myth and current political realities, these stories explore troubling motifs in contemporary Indian life through the figures and narratives of indigenous tribes in India. At once delicate and violent, Devi's stories map the experiences of the "tribals" and tribal life under decolonization. In "The Hunt," "Douloti the Bountiful" and the deftly wrought allegory of tribal agony "Pterodactyl, Pirtha, and Puran Sahay," Ms. Devi links the specific fate of tribals in India to that of marginalized peoples everywhere. Gayatri Spivak's readings of these stories connect the necessary "power lines" within them, not only between local and international structures of power (patriarchy, nationalisms, late capitalism), but also to the university.

Madhav Gadgil was born in Pune in 1942, just as Salim Ali's superbly illustrated Book of Indian Birds was published. Influenced by his birdwatcher father, he learnt to recognize birds from their pictures even before he could read. He is an unusual combination of a person fascinated by the diversity of the natural world, of the landscapes and the life they support, as well as the diversity of cultures and lifestyles of the people firmly rooted to India's soil. He has dedicated himself to intellectual pursuits ranging over mathematics, natural and social sciences, history and public policy. This book is an account of his life walking up and down the country's hills and dales, watching peacocks dance and elephants prance, living among fisherfolk on the west coast, horticulturists on Western Ghats, and the tribals of Manipur and Maharashtra, all the while being a part of a vibrant scientific community.
Walking Towards Walden is an exploration of the sense of place, what it means, how it developed, and why it matters. Based on an eighteenth-century literary device in which a group of friends undertake a walking tour and discuss a certain subject, this wide-ranging story emerges from the author's fifteen-mile bushwhack through woods, backyards, and marshes - from a hilltop in Westford, Massachusetts, to the town of Concord, Massachusetts - trespassing all along the way. A mock epic, complete with encounters with armed mercenaries and vicious dogs, the book covers all the aspects of place - art, literature, myth, and even music.
