52 Lessons From a Card Deck aims to increase awareness of the game of Contract Bridge amongst established, upcoming, and newcomers to the game. Established players need to understand how to position the game to newcomers, upcoming players will increase awareness of their game, and newcomers will clear a lot of myths and misunderstandings about the game. The book is written in 52 chapters, symbolising a deck of cards, and each chapter conveys how the game can relate to some aspect of life, work, or daily activities. It is presented in an easy-to-read format in a conversational mode between four upcoming bridge players at a fictitious club called Sarangapani Club. Each chapter has five messages under the title “Honour Cards.” These messages were used for marketing bridge education classes seminars (Parisamvad) and practical learning (Spardha Shikshan) sessions. They emphasise that the game has a lot of variety, depth, and challenges and can also be used as a competitive sport or as a social gathering to make a network of friends. Each message connects some concept with bridge and is presented in two styles –essay format and comments by faculty members.

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

Paulus, professor of chemistry, North Hennepin Community College, and 2008 U.S. Community Colleges Professor of the Year from The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education "Thank you Carnegie Mellon for making accessible what has previously been inaccessible to those of us who are not learning scientists. Your focus on the essence of learning combined with concrete examples of the daily challenges of teaching and clear tactical strategies for faculty to consider is a welcome work. I will recommend this book to all my colleagues." —Catherine M.
