Highlights of Reader’s Digest India magazine dated April 1, 2013. Our April cover story reveals how cancer is no longer the killer it used to be, thanks to medical advances. As our inspiring stories—of people, young and old—suggest, there is more hope now for an individual diagnosed with cancer than ever before. Each of the special people featured vanquished not just the disease, but went on to conquer something beyond it. - This month’s Real-Life Drama, “There’s a Girl on the Tracks!,” is a Digest classic from 1977. Set in New York's subway system, it is a masterpiece written in such a gripping manner that one doesn't realize that all the action takes place in barely a minute. - With supermarkets and retail chains proliferating, our light-fingered "customers" have made India the world's shoplifting capital. “They’re Stealing You Blind” tracks down several shoplifters and studies the menace to help us maintain integrity of character, tell our children that shoplifting isn’t cool, and help reduce the losses that burden honest shoppers. - Other highlights of the issue include, "46 Dumb Boss Stories", "In My Opinion" on how literature can better our lives, and "What the Tree Saw,"—fascinating autobiographies of trees that have stood witness to history. - And, of course, our regular offerings—jokes, cartoons and features like “Word Power” and “RD Living” (filled with tips to make your life easier).
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...
