The rise of Narendra Modi is a watershed moment in Indian politics. In fact, such is the magnitude of his influence on the country that India's governance paradigm and political history can be easily divided into two distinct eras-pre-Modi and post-Modi.Modi became the chief minister of the Indian state of Gujarat in 2001. He was undefeated in all subsequent elections and became the state's longest serving chief minister. While Modi strode Gujarat like a colossus, propelling multi-dimensional progress, bigger responsibilities beckoned. Modi's exemplary success in Gujarat, paved the way for him to be popularly elected India's prime minister in an overwhelming victory in 2014. He is a prime minister unlike anyone earlier, both in terms of appeal and body of work. As a result, in 2019, he was re-elected with an even bigger mandate.His appeal is the result of his work in many domains over a long social, political and administrative career. Modi's impact is not restricted to India alone, and numerous national and international polls regularly declare that he is the most popular international leader.In 2021, Modi completed twenty continuous years as the head of a government. This book, a compilation of chapters authored by eminent intellectuals and domain experts, attempts a definitive and expansive exploration into the fundamental transformation of Gujarat and India over the last twenty years due to Modi's unique model of governance.""

Donor families are unique, yet are also becoming substantially more common with the exponential advancements being made in the field of reproductive medicine, and with the wider acceptance of LGBTQ+ and single-parent families utilizing donor gametes in recent decades. The accessibility of commercial DNA testing is also helping to expand these families, as many people are finding out by surprise that they are part of a sometimes quite large donor family. Individuals connected to donor families are therefore much more likely to be seen across a variety of mental health and medical settings for a range of presenting problems, either related to or separate from this part of their background. Regardless of the presenting issue, for these individuals the challenges of forming and redefining family as they explore their own or their child's new biological connections can seem overwhelming and are therefore very likely to surface as a topic of discussion in treatment. Given the greatly increased probability of encountering a client connected to a donor family in their practices across settings, and the specific challenges this presents, clinicians must be well-informed about all perspectives in order to address such issues in a knowledgeable and sensitive manner. Counseling Donor Family Members provides clinicians and mental health professionals with guidance on the unique issues that can present for egg and sperm donors, parents of donor-conceived children, and donor-conceived people. They will be better prepared for many of the issues that donor family members might present in regards to their family of origin and with their new donor family relationships. Counseling Donor Family Members is both a resource for mental health and medical professionals in any setting, and a useful reference book for researchers, and donor family members themselves. It presents evolving ideas, recommendations, and talking points, that can be used in counseling everyone in the donor family. Because each stakeholder is deeply connected to the others, understanding all viewpoints is important for a successful counseling experience with any parent, egg and sperm donor, or donor-conceived person.

Just Color It was borne on account of my love of vivid colors; natural or with a little help from a filter. Each image reminds me of a walk, experience, trip or event and evokes feelings of happiness, excitement, serenity and mystery. The more saturated the image, the more it captures my attention. The camera is really an amazing and sometimes underrated tool. If allows you to capture a scene that is almost certainly one of a kind. The photographs you take, like a digital perfume, will take you back to another place and time. Bright and powerful colors enhance that experience and memories will follow. Colors in our environment are easy to take for granted. Indeed, colors are everywhere. Captured at their best, however, they can evoke energy and emotion.This book of images is intended for you to simply enjoy, or better yet to inspire you to capture your own cache of colorful photographs. On the page that follows is a "color wheel." The color wheel allows you to visualize the relationship between colors; both complimentary and contrasting. The wheel is designed to show you how to both harmonize colors and bring the "pop of color" to your photography. The color in our world is something which has always brought a smile to my face. I hope that these images bring color to your lives and put a smile on your faces as well. I am just an amateur photographer; nothing more and nothing less. As I always say, if I can do it, anyone can do it: Just Color It!

God spared my life, made me sit down, take a look at my life and gave me a new voice. For years I talked about writing a book about my life's adventures but it was easier to talk about it because chatter didn't need to prove that I had any thoughts. Early 2016 I became deathly ill, needing surgery, died twice on the operating table and my caregivers and family wouldn't allow them to give up on me. I wasn't expected to live. I remained in a coma for a month on a ventilator until the hospital transferred me to a Transitional Care Hospital (TCH). My primary doctor and my family refused to pull the plug, refused to lose faith in my recovery... Thank the Lord I woke up before Memorial Day weekend. After hearing details about the ordeal I went through I got busy writing about everything that came to me and this poetry book is the result of my decision to quit procrastinating!
