“ಭಾಷಾಂತರವೆಂದರೆ ಎರಡು ಭಾಷಿಕರ ನಡುವೆ ಸಂವಹನವನ್ನು ಏರ್ಪಡಿಸುವ ಕಾರ್ಯವಿಧಾನ. ಒಂದು ಭಾಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕಥಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವಿವರಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ಸಂಭಾಷಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ಭಾವನೆಗಳನ್ನು ವ್ಯಕ್ತಪಡಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವಿಶ್ಲೇಷಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವರ್ಣಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವಾದಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು ಅದಕ್ಕನುಗುಣವಾಗಿ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಭಾಷೆಗೆ ಪರಿವರ್ತಿಸುವುದು ಭಾಷಾಂತರವೆಂಬ ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆ. ಒಂದು ಭಾಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಭಾವಲಹರಿ, ವಿಚಾರಧಾರೆಗಳನ್ನು ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಭಾಷೆಗೆ ಸ್ಥಳಾಂತರಮಾಡುವುದು ಭಾಷಾಂತರವೆಂದು ಸ್ಥೂಲವಾಗಿ ತಿಳಿದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬಹುದು.”
“ಪ್ರಪಂಚದ ಒಂದು ಮೂಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕಂಡುಕೊಂಡ ಹೊಸ ಸಿದ್ಧಾಂತಗಳು, ಆವಿಷ್ಕಾರಗಳು ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಮೂಲೆಯ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಭಾಷೆಯನ್ನಾಡುವ ಜನರಿಗೆ ತಲುಪಿದಾಗ ಅವುಗಳ ಪ್ರಯೋಜನವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುವ ಜನರ ಸಂಖ್ಯೆ ಸ್ವಾಭಾವಿಕವಾಗಿಯೇ ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತದೆ. ಪ್ರಪಂಚದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಭಾಷೆಗಳನ್ನು ಕಲಿಸಿದಷ್ಟೂ ಭಾಷಾಂತರದ ಅಗತ್ಯ ಕೆಲವು ಸ್ತರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾದೀತು. ಆದರೆ, ಅದರಿಂದಾಗಿ ಭಾಷಾಂತರಗಳಿಗೆ ಅವಕಾಶ ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತಾ ಹೋಗುತ್ತದೆ.’’

Comets – Nomads of the Solar System
₹290.00This book introduces the general reader to the world of comets – those celestial visitors from the outer Solar System that occasionally visit the Earth’s neighbourhood and put up spectacular shows in the night sky. The world had geared up for just such a show at the end of 2013, when Comet ISON was expected to light up the night sky. Using the occasion to bring the world of comets to those interested, this book is a delightful read about the quirky world of these unpredictable visitors. Apart from lucidly and accurately updating the reader about what comets are, where they come from, why is it that they assume the fantastic shapes they do etc. “Comets” also regales the reader with myths about comets in various cultural contexts, snippets about famous comets in the history of mankind, anecdotes on comet discoveries and discoverers, the bewildering procedures followed while naming comets and much more. The book takes a hard look at the hype surrounding the fiery expectations about Comet ISON an cautions the reader that, while there was a good chance of the comet blazing forth in the skies of December 2013, there was a realistic chance that the comet would not survive its close encounter with the Sun. Sadly, the pessimistic predictions came true and the comet disintegrated as it went around the Sun. As we wait for chance to throw us a Great Comet to gaze at in the future, “Comets: Nomads of the Solar System” is an excellent guide to prepare for the event!

Legends of Travancore – A Numismatic Heritage
₹1,250.00The Kingdom of Travancore in the Southern part of India was a native state in British India which was well known for its progressive outlook. Its enlightened royalty ruled the country as Sree Padmanabha Dasa. They had in place a well oiled administrative mechanism that implemented various programs and reforms, resulting in an overall development of Travancore. Though Travancore was under the colonial rulers, there was a well-orchestrated administrative machinery for coinage. Coins were minted as per the specifications ordered by the periodically issued Royal Proclamations. It is creditable that Travancore retained its independence in its functioning to a large extent. This book is an insight into the coins of Modern Travancore (from 1729 AD) which not only reflects the religious beliefs of the rulers, but also sketches the socio-political atmosphere of the period. Dr Joseph Thomas hailing from Thiruvananthapuram, is a Professor of Urology at Manipal University in India. His passion for collecting coins developed into a serious numismatic pursuit. His special area of interest is the study of the history of Venad and Travancore. His detailed study of the Travancore coins and the various related issues give an insight into the rich numismatic heritage of modern Travancore. He is a Life Member of the Philatelic and Numismatic Association of Thiruvananthapuram and a Life Member of the South Indian Numismatic Society, Chennai.
