An Impartial History of the Partition of India: Volume I — The Two-Nation Theory and the Road to Partition

Why did British India divide in 1947—and how did decades of political choices make Partition possible? An Impartial History of the Partition of India: Volume I — The Two-Nation Theory and the Road to Partition by Dr. Biplab Pal presents a chronological, evidence-focused account of the political ideas, institutions, and decisions that shaped one of the defining events of modern South Asian history. A Long Road to 1947 The Partition of India did not begin with a single announcement or negotiation. Its roots developed over decades through the 1905 Partition of Bengal, the expansion of communal electorates, the rise of competing nationalisms, constitutional experiments, mass political movements, and repeated failures of negotiation.

Paul Allen,the Microsoft Founder - what did I learn

First, I have to be ruthlessly honest. I never had strong interest in him but I learned a bit about him since I explored a lot about his more celebrated partner, Bill Gates.  This blog is not about Paul's life or achievement. That you will find plenty  in wiki and google.  I will focus more on my take-out from his life. Other than Microsoft, he has invested and owned a large number of business. Besides owning every famous clubs in Seattle ( Portland Tailblazer, Seattle Seahawks, Seattle Sounder FC ), he also invested into number of famous IT and non-IT companies.  But he barely made any money in any of his ventures. In fact he lost two Billions in Charter Communication and unknown amount in his movie venture Vulkan production. However, he was prolific in his philanthropy for advancing science and technology. He invested and gave way generously for brain research, ocean exploration, space exploration and so on. He was a terrific scientific and technology mind in hi...
