In Search of Indian English
This book presents a historical account of the development of an acrolectal variety of the English language in colonial India. It highlights the phenomenon of Indianization of the English language and its significance in the articulation of the Indian identity in pre-Independence India. This volume also discusses the sociocultural milieu in which English became the first choice for writers and political leaders.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND BIODIVERSITY MANAGEMENT
Assessing the impacts of climate change will be a vital task in developed as well as in developingcountries because of many interdependent physical, biological and chemical processes are ongoing inearth and human systems. These processes can be affected by change in climate, causing an effect onnatural resources (water resources, forest products, etc.), on biodiversity, ecosystem services and onplants in general, some positive and on others negative effects, such as, altering biophysical relationship,shrinking of habitats, desertification and general shift in natural world.Warming directly affects rate of plant respiration, photosynthesis, and other biogeochemicalprocesses. For instance, enhanced CO2 concentration can increase photosynthetic rate especially for plantsgrowing under warm and dry condition such as C3 plants.

Language, Style and Variation in Contemporary Indian English Literary Texts
Language, Style and Variation in Contemporary Indian English Literary Texts is a volume which examines the linguistic and stylistic forms of Indian English in new fictional texts to explore the power of language to construct meaning, express identity, and convey ideology. Specifically, this study proposes the elaboration and application of postcolonial stylistics, i.e. an interdisciplinary methodology that uses different disciplines, such as literary linguistics and postcolonial studies as a critical lens to read contemporary Indian authors like Jeet Thayil, Deepa Anappara, Avni Doshi, Tabish Khair, and Megha Majumdar. The linguistic fabric of their fiction is investigated in a series of case studies, observing the stylistic rendition of a wide range of themes and tropes, such as the representation of Otherness, drug discourse, lament and the senses, which cumulatively portray aspects of the current Indian narrative scenario. The book develops ideas growing out of several disciplines to reach a fuller understanding of cultural phenomena in the postcolonial context, and by extension in the social world.
