Later in Medieval period the education system was further polished and perfected. Most of the rulers during sultanate period took keen interest in promotion of education. Later in Mughal era the emperors and their administration devoted great attention to the promotion and growth of education in this country. They established a network of schools and institutions of higher learning throughout the vast empire. However the real development of education began under British regime only. The new rulers framed policies and laid foundation of modern education in India. They opened schools and colleges all over British India. No doubt the English masters shaped the education system in accordance with their interests and their primary aim was to produce administrators and clerks for the strength and durability of their government. But in fact that proved to a blessing in disguise. Over the years the English established and cultivated a perfect education system on modern western lines. 304 pp.…

A language is a system used to facilitate communication among people. It is easy to define language in vague terms as there is a magic in the spoken word Language is one of the greatest glories of man. But to define a language with precision is far less easy than to define acid or any other chemical term. All the numerous definitions of language given by various thinkers bring out different aspects of language and supplement one another in making us understand all the facts of language. A language by which we mean a spoken language may be defined as a system of arbitrary vocal symbols by means of which human beings communicate and co operate with one another. Phonology is the organization of sounds into patterns. In order to fulfil the communicative functions languages organize their material the vocal noises into recurrent bits and pieces arranged in sound patterns. It is the study of this formal organization of languages which is known as phonology. 248 pp.…

It was emphasized that these social changes and emerging social needs must be rejected in the theory and practice of education also. 296 pp.…

The few colonial wars that broke out during this period exercised little adverse effects on the national life. The Crimean War of course caused a stir in England but its effect were soon forgotten and the people regained the normal tenor of their lives without feeling the aftermaths of war in their round of daily activities. In the earlier years of the age the effect of the French Revolution was still felt but by the middle of the century it had almost completely dwindled and England felt safe from any revolutionary upsurge disturbing the placidity and peaceful existence of its life. On the whole it was a comparatively peaceful reign when English men secure in their Island base could complete the transformation of all aspects of their industrial commercial and social life without any risks of violent interruptions that gave quite a different quality to the history of continental nations. 288 pp. …

Bibliography. India has begun efforts well in the beginning of the independence to develop Nuclear Energy for peaceful purposes. Late Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru had taken interest in the development of Atomic Energy for the industrial development of the country in the times to come. Atomic Energy Commission was constituted and the Prime Minister himself was the Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission. Later on eminent scientist late Homi J. Bhabha was appointed as the Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission. Late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had made arrangements for the Atomic Explosion in the year 1974. The Atomic Energy Powers of the world which were mostly the American and the European Powers had not taken this development very pleasantly. Except Soviet Russia all other countries especially America had tried to obstruct the development of Atomic Energy in India. But India continued its efforts to develop Atomic Energy on its own and after great hardships was successful in becoming a Nuclear Power well in 1974. More and more Nuclear Explosions were made in the year 1998 by the Government headed by Atal Bihari Vajpayee which prompted Pakistan also to make explosions. Inspite of the fact that Pakistan did not have the capacity to develop Atomic Energy on its own and it was working at the behest of China and America it is generally believed that the Atom Bombs were placed in the window of Pakistan manufactured by China and America. The truth is not well established. Ultimately the world Atomic Powers have accepted India as a Atomic Power and have now come to the point of striking a deal with India for supplying fission material for the development of Atomic Energy for Civilian Purposes. 356 pp.…
