About this issue
Highlights of the issue :-India now has the world’s highest number of English speakers, but in these days of texting and Twitter, using the language correctly and elegantly seems to have taken a back seat. Even so, if you paid attention to how you speak and write, you have a winning edge at job interviews, meetings, even for a promotion. Our August cover story "How to Sound Smarter" explains common English-language mistakes you can avoid and get ahead. Cartoonists from the world over celebrated the comic genius of Charlie Chaplin through their drawings of him, which were recently exhibited in Mumbai. Enjoy some of those drawings reprinted in our "Art & Culture" section. Read "The Jam Maker of Bhuira," an inspiring story of an English lady who empowers women in a Himachal hamlet. Other highlights of the August issue include an interview with Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com's founder, "Words of Lasting Interest" from Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru's autobiography, and "Living With a Special Child." Our humour sections are here as always to light up your month. Test your knowledge of the year 1947 with our Independence Day special quiz.
About Reader's Digest
Highlights of Reader’s Digest February 2016, issue: Happiness Begins with Humour Of Love and Money It’s February and while the world celebrates love (we do too), we also know it’s still the beginning of the year and we’re all still hanging on to our resolutions. It’s the best time to make a sound financial plan, rather than scrambling at the end of the year to put together investments. But since there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, our cover story lays down the basics and helps you build on these. But because money can’t buy everything, we have a heart-warming tale of what our loved ones really want from us. In our other special stories: Shafqat Amanat Ali on what he’d do if he ruled the world, an interview with Michael Caine, how to get lucky, and whether the new black money law really will work. Plus, a look into The Making of a Jihadist and why a healthy young man did what he did. There’s also something for us to sleep over: a special report on sleep, how we, in India, are not getting enough of it, and how we can get our full eight hours. Travel down Australia’s Great Ocean Road, and round it off with a story of a film-maker who has lived well beyond his years, with the support and love of his family. Yes, love does make the world go around. So don’t miss our Valentine’s Day special: To Fall in Love with Anyone, Do This...
