In northern India, the diverse physiography of the state of Jammu and Kashmir, situated in the western Himalayas, exhibits the shape of a terrace having three steps of increasing elevation from south to north. The lower step comprises Ã?Â?sub-Himalayan Jammu, the middle is Himalayan Kashmir, and the upper as trans-Himalayan Ladakh. This varied surface configuration makes these regions quite distinct where Jammu is mostly hilly; Kashmir, a sizeable plain surrounded by mountains; and Ladakh, an area of towering landforms. By virtue of its latitudinal location, the state lies within the sub tropics, but such conditions here are altered by a varying altitude, restricting the sub tropical climate to southern parts of Jammu region. The northern parts of the Jammu and Kashmir valley experience temperate climate, while Ladakh is a cold highland desert. Consequently, each region is in possession of different environmental assets and constraints. This book provides a concise and coherent account of the geography of Jammu and Kashmir. It deals briefly with the political history of Jammu and Kashmir, and then traces the geological evolution of the state. The book includes chapters on the physical features of each region. It offers a clear understanding of the basics of the physical environment, presenting the weather and climate at the regional and the sub-regional level.

The Himalaya, a global biodiversity hotspot, sustains about one-fifth of the humankind. Nestled within the north-western mountain ranges of the Himalaya, the Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) State harbours more than half of the biodiversity found in the Indian Himalaya. The wide expanse of State, spread across the subtropical Jammu, through the temperate Kashmir valley, to the cold arid Ladakh, is typical representative of the extensive elevational and topographical diversity encountered in the entire Himalaya. This book, the most comprehensive and updated synthesis ever made available on biodiversity of the J&K State, is a valuable addition to the biodiversity literature with global and regional relevance. The book, arranged into 7 parts, comprises of 42 chapters contributed by 87 researchers, each of whom is an expert in his/her own field of research. The precious baseline data contained in the book would form the foundation for assessing current status of knowledge about the bioresources, identify the knowledge gaps, and help prioritization of conservation strategies to steer the sustainable use of biodiversity in this Himalayan region. Given the breadth of topics covered under the banner of biodiversity in this book, it can surely serve as a model for documentation of biodiversity in other regions of the world. The book will be of immense value to all those who, directly or indirectly, have to deal with biodiversity, including students, teachers, researchers, naturalists, environmentalists, resource managers, planners, government agencies, NGOs and the general public at large.

2008, 2010, and 2016—three important points in recent history when mass rage emerged in Kashmir. But the reasons that pushed Kashmir to the brink on these three occasions were different from each other—from a perceived threat to identity, to rage over the killing of innocents, to support for militancy. If one looks closely, one could spot another important change: by 2016, a new generation of millennials had replaced those who had pelted stones in 2008. And, in a matter of a mere decade, the hope that was slowly permeating Kashmir suddenly collapsed and gave way to a new round of militancy. In this book David Devadas, a respected authority on Kashmir, delves into his deep understanding of the region and its youth to offer a unique understanding of the Kashmir issue. He relates the increase in the generation of rage in Kashmir to the inability of those in power to declare the end of militancy at the right time. Exploring vital aspects of the conflict economy, murders for rewards, and terror acts by state-backed mercenaries, Devadas shows how simplistic black-and-white narratives suit both pro- and anti-state actors equally and lead the poor and marginal to their deaths.
