Following the Second World War, yoga has asserted its presence in America and impacted the American culture, arts, and literature. This book offers extensive explications of Saul Bellow's Mr. Sammler's Planet, J. D. Salinger's "Teddy," John Updike's S.: A Novel, and Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five in the light of the four different yoga philosophies interwoven into their respective narrative structures. The comparative analyses of these four contemporary American fictions unveil the deeper mystical motifs implicit in their plots, stories, themes, and characters' behavioural patterns. The exhaustive interpretations of texts in the five successive chapters put forth an exposition of how the ancient Indic philosophy and contemporary American fiction interact to explicate and enrich each other. The book adds a unique, unconventional dimension to the comparative and interdisciplinary investigation into contemporary American fiction and thereby opens up new vistas of an off-beat interface between the Eastern philosophy and Western literature.

Harvesting is one of the most important activities in fruit production, handling, and preservation cycle. Fruits are generally damaged due to the lack of a suitable harvesting device. A study was conducted to survey the existing traditional harvesting methods utilized for Kinnow fruits in the Hisar region and to identify associated physical and physiological problems that occurred in Kinnow fruit harvesting. Based on the identified problems and to reduce the physical working stress of farmworkers in harvesting operation an Ergo-Friendly harvesting system was developed, which comprised of aluminum telescopic pipe, clutch operated cutting mechanism, micro-camera, display, battery, fruit collection net, and ergonomically designed belt.
