A topographical biography of Charles Dickens's England. Ideal for everyone interested in the places associated with the great Victorian novelist and his works. This book conducts the reader to every English scene and building connected by any significance with Dickens which is still to be seen today. Despite the numerous changes that have taken place since his death in 1870, many places Dickens knew personally and immortalized in his books still stand; and it is within the setting of these that the authors tell the story of his life - a biography in terms of place, showing how Dickens's keen observation and brilliant descriptive ability transmuted his memories of his homes, his schools, his lodgings, and the towns and villages he visited into the background of his novels and stories. Such was the enormous fame Dickens enjoyed in his lifetime, that any house he lived in, visited or wrote about was remembered for his sake. In Kent, his chosen county and cradle of his genius, the pride in him is strongest, the houses and scenes most abounding; but it is possible to follow him to many other parts of the country and to find something of him in unassuming hotels and seaside inns, lonely churches and stately homes, places that knew him and can help to bring him to life for us. Dickens's England is a fascinating topographical study concentrating on what is still to be seen, rather than what has disappeared, and offers both immediate interest and enduring value for fans of the great author.

"This volume is written as a spiritual formation commentary. As such, it takes a very different approach to the text as it seeks to draw out and reflect on themes related to spiritual growth and discipleship. Taking this approach to examine the Acts of the Apostles offers us an opportunity to reflect not only on Luke's understanding of being a follower of Jesus but also on the meaning of being a disciple of Christ in the present day"--

The British government created a police act in 1861. After independence, the Indian government did not care to change this act for decades. The police act of 1861 was a tool and hidden agenda of Britishers for suppressing the slave Indians. It was a tactful instrument to rule Indians with the help of Indians. Later, after independence, the politicians got a taste of misusing their powers to interfere in the police administration. They also tried to provide shelter to the criminals due to their vested interests.For example, a huge illegal construction took place in Delhi without a check from any authority. The increase in crime rate in our country from 2005 to 2015 was recorded to be nearly 4 per cent per year. Lots of court cases got piled up in the courts. The present pendency of cases is as large as above 30 million. The disposal of these court cases alone may take 50 to 100 years to decide.From 1979 to 1981, the police commission reports suggested many reforms, but no one bothered to act on them. The Supreme Court issued directives in 2006, but again the states did not follow these directives. There are contempts of the court pending in the Supreme Court against many states regarding this issue. The Model Police Act was proposed by a committee under the Supreme Court, but even that was not followed. Under the present system of police, a single politician can act like a dictator to dominate the police officers. The system is unable to ensure justice for the weak and poor people. Vested interests continue to dominate the police and criminal justice system. We have nearly 11 times more murder rate per lakh population in India as compared to Japan.
