Highlights of Reader’s Digest India magazine dated June 1, 2013. A young man from Bangladesh is the hero of our June cover story "The Face of Forgiveness."

With an increasing number of children moving out of home for higher studies or better job prospects, many parents are finding it difficult to cope with the void. "Empty Nest, New Start" is all about parents who started afresh and took charge of their lives. If you too are an older parent, here is help to kick off your second innings. It was a momentous event in history when Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary reached the summit of Mount Everest on 29 May 1953.

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...
