Blogoscience & Edward Luce

Thanks to desipundit for introducing me to nonoscience, a very interesting blog on science and more science. Nonoscience is maintained by a Professor from IIT-Madras Dr. Arunn Narasimhan and Lakshmi Gopal. Some of the articles were very interesting expecially Borromean rings and use of carbon nanotubes in biomedical applications.

This is exactly what we need - some good information on cool happenings in the scientific community.

On another note, the book by a Edward Luce titled 'In Spite of the Gods: The Strange Rise of Modern India' is a great book to read. The first thing I noticed was that the author was never afraid to speak his mind out loud. I especially liked the parts where he discusses about the caste politics that India still suffers from inspite of having come a long way after independence. Most of his book is an unbiased look at India and its current economic, political and social state.
