Re Orient


Book Description

At the beginning of the new century, Asia remains the most dynamic and unpredictable region in the world. Recent events have highlighted the need for a better understanding of the diverse peoples of the region, their traditions, and their responses to the inter-related changes that togethermake up what is called globalisation.The first edition of Re Orient: Change in Asian Society was praised for its ability to make sense of those changes-its accurate and succinct analysis of Asian experience advances understanding of our own as well as Asian societies. In this new edition, the discussion is as engaging and stimulatingas before, but has been updated to take into account the rapid course of events in Asia since the late 1990s: from the Asian financial crisis to emergence of post-Suharto Indonesia; from India's population reaching one billion to independence in East Timor.

Reorient The Mind


Book Description

About The Book With over Six Billion (6,000,000,000) people in Seven continents across the globe, it is not yet crystal clear to understand man how powerful his mind can be. The mind is an invisible component of the human body, powerful enough to differentiate us from every other person on earth, and capable to make us destroy our comfort zone as we seek the fulfillment of our purpose in this universe. In the pursuit of being successful, we must know our identity; who our Creator says we are, who we say we are, and who we accept ourselves to be. The emphasis in this book is on the importance of unleashing the power within you as the author writes on the mind, how a man can find his purpose, develop his personality and mental strength to overcome negativity, why he needs to reorient his mind, think positively and how he can overcome his fear.
