About this issue
Highlights of Reader’s Digest August 2017, issue: The August issue, the Independence Day Special, celebrates 70 years of India’s Freedom. ‘50 Things To Know About Freedom in India’, the cover story, highlights key moments from India’s journey towards liberty, starting with the 1857 Revolt. Spanning over a century, this extensively-researched article is not just a reminder of our freedom saga, but also offers invaluable insights. There are also perspectives from historians, political commentators and human rights activists that are illuminating. Our Soldiers Speak is a collection of amazing stories—of valour, selflessness, love and inspiration—about our men and women in uniform. The Mark of An Alpha Male is an insightful, scientific foray into male behaviour, and what humans can learn from the animal kingdom. Kindness of Strangers, our popular series, has two heart-warming tales of compassion and generosity. The Bonus Read, The Untold Story of the Bastille Day Attacker, unravels the mystery of what seemed like an act of terror. The truth seems much stranger Keeping the Faith are nine stories of communal amity that are reassuring. This issue also has: The Case of the National Anthem, in the series You Be the Judge, Swami Vivekananda’s Words of Lasting Interest on harmony of religious faith, the very useful What To Ask Before Taking Antibiotics, and some solid advice of driving in the monsoons. Happy reading!
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...
