Reader's Digest India Magazine - December 2015

In this issue

The world around us has become rude. We all experience this often. Our cover story "What Happened to Good Manners" is a survival guide to deal with this all-pervading boorishness. They say that hard work and talent change the course of one's destiny. Shubham Jaglan's success story aptly proves the point. "Fairway to Success" describes how the child prodigy from a Haryana village overcame several odds to become a global golf phenomenon. It's unusual to come across a film star who reaches out to the needy without a splash of publicity. But if the star is Nana Patekar, expect a different attitude. Get to know about his life, films and his propensity to help others in the RD interview, "Raindrop in the Drought." Worried if you are eccentric? Find out in "Is It Just Me?"
To celebrate Christmas we have a heart-warming story, "The Christmas Present."
Other highlights of the December issue include our drama "Into the Rock", travel, "Along the Wine Route" and "Is Your Bank Selling You Dodgy Schemes?"
To take care of your skin this winter, read, "Do-it-Yourself Wintercare." And learn about what to keep in your house and what to throw out in "Keep or Toss."
Increase your vocabulary with "Word Power" and get inspired by "Quotable Quotes". Our humour departments, as always, give you your monthly dose of laughter.
