Bu sayıda

Highlights of Reader’s Digest August 2018, issue: As India is all set to celebrate Independence Day we turn to our youth to understand what freedom means to them. Alongside, we examine the state of freedom in a digital world in ‘How Free Are We?’ As Press freedom across the globe stands threatened, we look back at India's first English-language newspaper, helmed by a maverick Irishman, that challenged the might of Governor General Warren Hastings in 'An Unlikely Champion of Press Freedom'. We live in times fraught with hatred and communal conflict. Everyday Heroes brings hope as we pan into the lives of a couple and a policeman, regular people, who stood up against aggression to save lives. Find inspiration in The Transformative Power of Giving--experiences of ordinary people who felt bigger than themselves when they embraced a life of philanthropy. Other fascinating reads include ‘My Family’s Slave’, ‘Trapped in a Glacier’, ‘When the Ektara Fell Silent’, and a fascinating photo feature titled ‘Clandestine in Delhi’. Of course, there are a number of stories in our Art of Living Section that bring practical tips and advice--especially in this rainy season.
