Bangladesh 1971 : Dreadful Experience
Original price was: 900.00৳.675.00৳Current price is: 675.00৳.
Bangladesh went through dreadful experiences in 1971 when the Pakistan Army and their local collaborators committed the crime of genocide all over the land for nine months. The Bengali book 1971 : Dreadful Experiences, published in 1989, created big impact on the readers as it depicted the human aspect of the sufferings. The anthology included 50 narratives of atrocity committed in different parts of the country in various months. Few of the narratives were translated and published in the anthology “Genocides in the Twentieth Century”, but the international readers could not be reached because of the language barrier. The expatriate youths of Bangladesh came forward to meet the challenge and created a group to translate and edit the book. They wanted to give faces to the millions of people killed and tortured by presenting stories of their suffering to an international audience. The book of mass atrocities can be termed as Black Book of Genocide, difficult to read but essential to say ‘Never Again.

Birth of a Nation : Story Of The Liberation War of Bangladesh
Original price was: 500.00৳.375.00৳Current price is: 375.00৳.
Enayet Mowla, living a peaceful family life in the Southern port-city of Chittagong, couldn’t remain a bystander when the war of liberation of Bangladesh began in March, 1971. His skill in hunting provided him with expertise in handing weapons, and his courage and commitment made him a great support of the young freedom fighters. His home ‘Kakoli’ in the city became a hide-out and center of resistance. Enayet Mowla not only witnessed the days of liberation war, he actively took part in the struggle and thereby is the right person to tell the story of the nation’s struggle in human terms. He is living in the US since 2004 and felt the strong urge to render his experience in English so that the new generation of expatriate Bangladeshi can learn about the days of courage and sacrifice of their forefathers who went through the trial of fire to gain independence for the nation. This is the story of a person which depicts the birth of a nation, the tragic and heroic story of Bangladesh.

Bullets of ’71 : A Freemdom Fighter’s Story
Original price was: 900.00৳.600.00৳Current price is: 600.00৳.
Bullets of `71: A Freedom Fighter’s Story details Dr. Nuran Nabi’s experience growing up in rural Bangladesh and living through the tumultuous episodes of the Bangladesh liberation movement and the liberation war. This is the true story of how a frail young man developed into a politically conscious student activist before transforming into a heroic freedom fighter in the Bangladesh Liberation War.
Throughout Dr. Nabi’s narrative, the untold stories of the Bangladesh Liberation War unfold. The sacrifices and heroic actions captured through Dr. Nabi’s words define more than his accomplishments, they define his entire generation. The Bangladesh Liberation War was a people’s war. Men and women, young and old, students, farmers, bureaucrats, laborers, political activists, and defected Bengali soldiers of the Pakistani military, all joined the liberation war. Bullets of `71 is their story.
But among all the pages in this book none are more candid and horrific than those that cover the atrocities committed by the Pakistani military. Although the Bangladesh genocide unfolded during the nine months of the liberation war, Dr. Nabi thoughtfully separates these stories to remind us of why he and his fellow freedom fighters fought.
Bullets of `71: A Freedom Fighter’s Story is a captivating story that captures the elements of the universal struggle for freedom.

Catalyst : In the Wake of Great Bhola Cyclone
Original price was: 900.00৳.675.00৳Current price is: 675.00৳.
The smell come first, then the tops of coconut palms : flouting on tiny stalks above the placid hay- at last the low mud bank with its horrcandans harden of decaying bodies. I had to run the dinghy down the coast for over a mile before I could find a spot to land without stepping an one of the luckless victims of the cyclone. I scrambled up the slippery bank, nearly retackling, and stood on a dirt mound that only last week had been a home. There before me was a beautiful, golden, flattened and utterly desolate land…
― Jon Rohde’s account of landing on Manpura, November 23, 1970
Catalyst is story of the most devastating cyclone in history, which struck one of the most overpopulated and defenseless places on earth. On November 12, 1970, a massive storm build up a twenty-foot high wall of water that surged with deadly force across the low-lying islands in the Bay of Bengal. The islanders, along with their lives tic, boats, possessions and any buildings not made of concrete, were flung into the raging wind and sea. Only the strongest survived. With an estimated half million deaths, the Great Bhola Cyclone stands as the worst in recorded history.
Drawing on original field notes, archival research, recollections of participants, interviews and memoirs, ‘Catalyst’ tells the true story of the response of a group of young friends to this unprecedented natural disaster, and to the subsequent conflict that led to the new nation of Bangladesh. A compelling tale about the choices that define us and shape our lives, ‘Catalyst’ illustrates how times of great calamity and confusion can become a cartography of human purpose.

CLIMATE CHANGE – Issues and Perspectives for Bangladesh
Original price was: 500.00৳.375.00৳Current price is: 375.00৳.
Human induced climate change has become an issue of considerable importance and a matter of hot debate since the early 1980s. in Bangladesh as well as globally First and foremost, there is the knowledge issue. How much do we know about the green house gases, green house effects, global warming and climate change? How familiar are we with the climatic processes involved in the green house effects, global warming climate change? Did IPCC work with scientific objectivity and transparency in dealing with aspects of climate science? What are the projected impacts of climate change in Bangladesh? Would the sea level actually rise and engulf part of Bangladesh due to human induced global warming? Would tropical cyclone making landfall in Bangladesh actually increase in frequency and intensity? Would drought incidence increase in North Bengal? What does the evidence say? What other problems Bangladesh face besides climate change? As the Kyoto protocol makes a sad demise, and the IPCC finds it difficult to come out of the climategate, are we not even more required to rely on our own resilience, a quality for which we are justly proud of? This book is a collection of articles arranged in chapters from different authors to provide some answers to all the questions posed above. The answers are neither exhaustive, nor comprehensive. But it is hoped that the general readers might find a direction for finding the answers they might be looking for.

Climate Change: Issues and Perspectives for South Asia
Original price was: 2,500.00৳.1,875.00৳Current price is: 1,875.00৳.
This book is designed for teachers, researchers, environmental professionals, tertiary level students and informed general readers of South Asia looking for a supplementary reading on what is happening to the Climate of this Monsoon region. Coming as a sequel to the earlier two books published in 2011 and 2015 respectively on Climate Change and Climate Variability Issues, both in Bangladesh context, this book looks at the climate change issues at South Asian scale. South Asia enjoys the same Monsoon climate, and climate change would affect us all, without respect to national political boundaries. With 19 articles collected from Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, arranged in four sections, address three issues. First, the knowledge issue, dealt with in section one. How familiar are we with the science of climate change? What are the developments in the UN Climate Change Conferences? Did IPCC work with scientific objectivity and transparency in dealing with the aspects of climate science? Second is the impact issue based on field evidence related to projected climate change impacts. Impact issues are covered in sections two and three. The third is the policy issues, placed in the last section. We looked at national policies and planning related to climate-change-adaptation and mainstreaming with the national development programs. How did the South Asian nations policy responses evolved through various protocols and agreements signed over the last decades regarding the Green House Gas emission, Climate Change adaptation and mitigation? The political ecology of the climate issues linked with the intertwined problems of poverty, sustainable development, environment and vulnerability challenge all the South Asian nations. While most of the development problems are definable and measureable making them amenable to planned solution, how far the climate change problems are amenable to planned solution without affecting the scheduled development requirements?

CLIMATE VARIABILITY-Issues and Perspectives for Bangladesh
Original price was: 900.00৳.675.00৳Current price is: 675.00৳.
This book is for those who have interest in and concern about what is happening to the climate of Bangladesh. They would like to find out whether Bangladesh is going through climate change or climate variability, whether such phenomena is unprecedented, and whether such phenomena is likely to continue into an unknown future. Does any extreme weather event mean either climate change or climate variability? What exactly do the terms weather, climate, climate change, climate variability, and climate system mean when national and international professionals talk about them and warn that Bangladesh is a victim of Climate Change? What can we do to prevent our weather and climate getting worse or help them getting better? What is IPCC, and why was it formed, for what purposes, with what mandate? What is ClimateGate that we hear about? What is Kyoto Protocol? What issues are important from Bangladesh perspectives? This book, as a sequel to our earlier book titled Climate Change: Issues and Perspectives for Bangladesh (published 2011), tries to provide answers to some of these and other pertinent questions in as simple terms as possible, and gives a Bangladesh perspective to the global scenario. The articles selected were written by professionals who have contributed to the appreciable volume of scientific literature that has grown over the last 30 years or soon the relevant fields here in Bangladesh. The overall findings are unmistakably clear: both the weather and the climate of Bangladesh is variable. The climate is marked by seasonality and extreme events. The causes are mostly natural. It would take long term careful research with scientific objectivity based on our national data to determine the nature and causes of changes, if any, in our climate here in Bangladesh. Climate related measures, such as adaptation, mitigation and risk reduction plans, programs and activities would be better tuned if the attention is on the challenges of the extreme climatic events. Meanwhile, the pace of economic development, based on agriculture, fisheries and livestock, as well as on industry, trade and transport, must go ahead impeded, keeping the considerations of environmental sustainability in one planning and budgeting. Our continued focus on the present certain problems and issues and more research effort on issues of climate in an uncertain future would be better productive to the development planning of Bangladesh.

Fifteen Plays of Rabindranath Tagore _ In his won English version
Original price was: 800.00৳.600.00৳Current price is: 600.00৳.
Rabindranath Tagore worte more than sixty plays both short and full length which could be classified into verse musical allegorical, social, comical plays and dance dramas. While many consider Tagore as the greatest playwright of Bengali literature some think that his dialogues are too heavy with literary layout which fail to communicate to the general audience and structures of some of his plays lack dramatic interest.
