We regret for our late
appearance with PRAGYAN December, 11 issue (Volume ix; Issue ii).
Due to some technical reason we couldn’t make it on time. Still, we are
happy to inform you that in this issue we’ve tried to present a good number of
writings on Science and as we always do, tried to focus on some socially relevant
issues, in this issue we’ve focused on International Year of Chemistry and
Forest. That made the issue one of the biggest in
size. Dr Arindam Adhikari tried to explain what the Lotus Effect is, while
Pinky Purakayastha expressed her concern on Indian Forest. Baikuntha Das and
Ranandra Khaund tried to explore relation between Forest and people depended on
it.
The American Educationist Joseph Landsberger continues to write on Study Guides and Strategies. This time he has written on ‘Thinking and Memorising’ ,the same translation by Bantimala Devi and the Bengali Translation by Sushanta Kar will again appear in his own site. Prashanta Bora is continuing with his career tips ‘Notes for Freshers’. Teachers might feel benefited from the information presented on the research journals in the column ‘Career Tabloid’. Among other attractions, we hope readers would love to read a few more write up on Political Economy, Language and cultural issues. | Among all these, you please don’t miss to have a look on beautiful ball
point pen drawings by Tapas Ray, in the Last page.
