Highlights of Reader’s Digest India magazine dated October1, 2013. What would you do if you found a wallet stuffed with cash? Our October cover story “How Honest Are We?” looked for an answer among residents of Mumbai and 15 other cities across Europe and South and North America. Though the results of our tests were not so scientific, we saw it as a good way of bringing out some values The Digest upholds—those of honesty, exemplary parenting and concern for the feelings of others. Find out how the real Mumbai Indians fared as compared to people worldwide. Don’t miss the amazing story of this brave lady from Tamil Nadu. Having fought orthodoxy and virtual imprisonment in her own home, Salma became a celebrated poet. To observe World Mental Health Day, which falls this month, we have “Can You Eat Your Way to Dementia?” with new findings about how sugary and fatty foods can damage not just our waistlines but our brains as well. Learn some strategies to help you navigate through life’s sticky situations in “The Science of Awkward Moments.” And find strategies to build a family emergency fund in this month’s RDMoney section. Read heartwarming stories in “Kindness of Strangers,” and our humour sections are here to tickle you as always.
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...
