Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) is a chronic inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity, which presents with a perforated tympanic membrane, through which microorganisms can enter into the middle ear. Infection can spread from the middle ear to vital structures such as the mastoid, facial nerve, labyrinth, lateral sinus, meninges, and brain. It is a common cause of hearing impairment and can occasionally lead to fatal intracranial infection. Prevalence surveys estimate that the global burden of illness from CSOM may involve 65 to 330 million individuals with draining ears. Looking into the magnitude of this global problem, which is still a burning issue, I was motivated to expand my research work in the form of a Book. This comprehensive overview of CSOM by a Clinical microbiologist with an extensive experience in the field of infectious diseases will be of immense help to Clinicians, Laboratory physicians, researchers, and students while conceptualizing the topic or dealing with CSOM patients.

In the current scenario, the topic of Dermatophytoses holds great relevance and is currently a burning issue throughout the world. Due to extensive experience in the field of Mycology and interest in this topic, I was motivated to write a book on Dermatophytosis by my clinician friends who felt that my knowledge and experience in this field will be of immense help to the medical fraternity in understanding the intricate concepts of Mycology and may help them in diagnosis and the treatment of such cases. The knowledge, particularly in the field of medical sciences, should not be restricted just to earning a University degree but should be disseminated in the entire scientific community so that the medical fraternity includes teachers, students, doctors, paramedics, and researchers. The entire efforts and time invested in this process will be deemed meaningful and fruitful only If the patients are benefitted directly or indirectly from this work.

Three Creators Is the legend ancient mythology or a highly developed modern science? Can a myth be so powerful that it can keep a great intellectual civilization under its effect for thousands of years? And if a powerful myth makes such an impact, then will it not be fair to take that myth as the Truth? One such truth is about the Three Creators. They are known to the whole world as the Creator, Preserver and Destroyer.2500 AD, E-One PlanetAs a consequence of accidents that occurred during a huge scientific project called salvation, the atmosphere of planet E-One, whose ancient name was Earth, has become unviable. Today, human civilization is sustained on three planets, namely E-One, M-One and M-Two. The future of the human civilization depends on the success of salvation project. The Chairman of salvation Project, Sukra, receives a message from an alien flying object from a remote part of space. Sukra and the traveler in that intergalactic spacecraft meet each other for a historic talk at a place name Kash-I. Gyani Sukra and the intergalactic traveler, whose name is Kalki, seek to understand the three creators in detail for determining the future of human civilization. They both want to understand the spiritual aspect of the myth in a scientific way and the scientific aspect of it in a spiritual way. Is this the end of human civilization? Will Sukra understand the mysteries of the three creators? After all, what is this puzzle of three?
