The Ganges Water Diversion: Environmental Effects and Implications (Water Science and Technology Library)

Publisher: —
Description: Book Description This book presents multi-disciplinary analyses of the environmental effects and implications in Bangladesh and India of the Ganges water diversion. The analyses demonstrate that the downstream part of the Ganges River basin in Bangladesh, which has a sensitive ecosystem, has become very vulnerable to water diversion and as a result it has caused significant damage to many economic sectors and ecosystems. Areas upstream of the Farakka Barrage in India have become more vulnerable to floods and riverbank erosion. The Kolkata Port has marginally benefited from the water diversion. In the Hooghly River estuary, populations of flora and fauna have thrived. In the downstream areas of Bangladesh costly adaptation measures have been adopted andin many cases damages are irreparable. A regional cooperative framework is presented to foster water resources and environmental development in the Ganges River basin. [detailed...]

In 1978 six refugees—a girl, her father, and four “uncles”—are pulled from the sea to begin a new life in San Diego. In the child’s imagination, the world is transmuted into an unearthly realm: she sees everything intensely, hears the distress calls of inanimate objects, and waits for her mother to join her. But life loses none of its strangeness when the family is reunited. As the girl grows, her matter-of-fact innocence eddies increasingly around opaque and ghostly traumas: the cataclysm that engulfed her homeland, the memory of a brother who drowned and, most inescapable, her father’s hopeless rage.

Mags was a devotee of tarot cards and fortune-telling, so when Tam and his associates wondered whether luck would be with them, it was to her that they turned. But Mags discovered that the cards gave signs that warned of much more than years in prison cells: they predicted death. She lived not just with the awful knowledge that her friends would perish violently, but her cards also foretold when they would die. Furthermore, she learned that her own husband was also doomed to a fate that was unexpected to everyone but her. Tam died in the arms of the wife he called his `rock,` while her secret lover frantically tried to save him. In The Gangster`s Wife, Mags reveals her gripping life story, from being a… [detailed...]
