Pullalur

Being a history buff I seldom miss Pradeep Chakravarthy's articles. He has come out with an interesting article on a place called Pullalur. Here is the link http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-sundaymagazine/article1494252.ece

Books to look out for

Two recent books, one by Vilayanur Ramachandran, The Tell-Tale Brain, and another on cancer, The Emperor of All Maladies, by Siddhartha Mukherjee, have caught my attention. I would be looking forward to reading them soon. Nilanjana has reviewed these two books along with another book by Oliver Sacks in today's Business Standard.
