Dreams Alone Survive
Dr Ravinder Kumar 'Ravi'
He is a prolific author, this is his 22nd book.
It is a poetry book.
Author's Preface:
A man without dreams is no man. These are his dreams which keep him going. Dreams inspire us all. Death of dream is the saddest tragedy. We knit our own dreams and keep moving in life. When a dream is unfulfilled either we pursue it more vigorously or the dream dies an untimely death, so we feel. Dreams do not die. They just take back seat. Dreams, as the saying goes, do not come true on their own, they are to be achieved, which means one has to work for it. Day dreaming is nothing but a cynical lazy proposition. You dream big; you work big time to realize them. You dream small; you work small time. What is called low achievers.
Man is nothing but a bundle of dreams, some realised ones and many more unfulfilled ones (not dead ones) Death of dream rather capacity and fiery desire to dream if that is dead then it is death of man. Man is mortal. Dreams are forever!
So, dream on! For Dreams alone survive!
Paperback, 6 by 9 in, 55 pages.

Early Hindi Film Advertisements IV (1949-60)
N Ramaswamy
Prof Surjit Singh
Until recently, the only way to access old newspapers and magazines was to visit their offices, go through many hurdles and answer dozens of questions to actually see the old collections. Mercifully, most had been converted to microfilm for the convenience of the researchers.
Thanks to the advent of the internet and the latest digital technology, quite a few newspapers and magazines have been digitized and are available without visiting the dusty old archives. However, most of the digital collections are available only after paying hefty fees.
There are some silver lines among the clouds. Many big companies like Google and Microsoft have undertaken a massive effort to digitize every available print material and put it on the internet for free. Many world libraries, associations, museums, special collections are doing the same. A huge repository of such items in the Internet Archive.
In this book, we present 600 images of early talkies ads. We had a lot of fun working on them, to capture them and making them suitable for print, organizing them. We hope that you will also enjoy this peek into the early history of the talkies.
This book, third in the series, covers 1949-60.
Size 6 by 9, pages 178, black and white paperback

RMIM Articles 1. Singers
Prof Surjit Singh
As I have mentioned before, classic RMIMers ran many series for many years, there content generated at least 6,000 pages.
I had thought of compiling a big book, but considering the sheer size of the work wrote a Minibus on the 25th anniversary.
Now I am coming back to compiling books on different series. The first series is articles and this is the first book.
[I think it will take about 20 books of about 300 pages each to do the job properly.]
Paperback, US Letter, 301 pages.
