The turban is undoubtedly the most powerful and recognisable symbol of Sikh identity: worn for centuries by kings and holy men in South Asia, it took on a revolutionary meaning with the birth of Sikhism, and today it continues to signify non-conformity and style. Turbans and Tales chronicles the Sikh Project, a photography programme created by the award-winning duo Amit and Naroop. Over a period of four years, they photographed boxers, army captains, doctors, bikers, fashion stylists, musicians, temple volunteers, magicians and Sikhs from a host of other occupations. They sought out individuals – men, women and children – with inspiring stories to tell, as well as a unique approach to wearing their traditional articles of faith. The portraits, which have been exhibited in London and New York, showcase the modern Sikh identity in all its beauty and diversity.

The true-story of life and love in an unfamiliar world. When Naginder Sehmi was born in Kenya nobody could have predicted the amazing life he was to live. From the scorched plains of Africa to the lofty mountains of Switzerland, Narender’s lifelong journey has been filled with unbelievable moments. In Twisted Turban, Naginder not only describes his continent-crossing journey in vivid detail but he also provides an unparalleled insight into the life as a Sikh. With heart-wrenching honesty, the stories show the struggle for love in a caste-based society and the inevitable approach of death and decay. Naginder also provides a commentary on the modern problems faced by Sikhs, both spiritually and in everyday life, and provides his own solutions to dealing with them. Beautifully-written with a fiery sense of humour that brings this distant world to life, Twisted Turban is a revealing insight into the life of a Sikh.

This comprehensive history of the Iranian Revolution views it in the context of an ongoing conflict between religious and political authorities dating back to the establishment of Shi'ism as the state religion of Iran in 1501. The historical context is seen as being critical in understanding the staying power of Khomeini's regime and its ruthless elimination of internal opposition to the Islamic Republic. The significance of the appearance of widespread popular discontent, the ideological differences among the ruling clergy, and the issue of Khomeini's succession are also considered, and the book concludes with a comparison between the Iranian Revolution and other famous historical revolutions.
