Abstract: This paper tries to explain whether an industrial sector belonging to Indian Manufacturing Industries with high (or low) market concentration ratio has a high (or low) growth rate. In addition, the paper checks whether the k firm concentration in an industry (the share of market supplied by the top k firms in an industry) improves or diminishes with an increase or decrease in n (number of firms), and how the growth pattern of the industry behaves alongside. As number of firms (n) in an industry increases, k firm concentration in an industry (C) may increase or decrease. However, this does not necessarily imply that the market concentration has improved or deteriorated, because, the size of the industry itself (n) has changed............

Keywords: Market concentration, Mauldon Distribution, Growth, Critical concentration ratio.

Abstract: Literature is the place of confluence where different fields of a human life meet and in order to have a better analysis of such creation of author; rich in matter and composition of various fields, mere usual perception of analysis is not enough, so therefore what we require are special tools, which help us to dig deep into the realms of literature. One among such special tools is application of psychology to literature where we dig deep into the minds of literary character, which help us to unfold the mysteries of thinking pattern not only of the literary character but also indirectly of human beings..............

Abstract: The absurdity which Kafka portrays in his nightmarish stories was, to him, the quintessence of the whole human condition. The utter incompatibility of the "divine law" and the human law, and Kafka's inability to solve the discrepancy are the roots of the sense of estrangement from which his protagonists suffer. No matter how hard Kafka's heroes strive to come to terms with the universe, they are hopelessly caught, not only in a mechanism of their own contriving, but also in a network of accidents and incidents, the least of which may lead to the gravest consequences. Absurdity results in estrangement, and to the extent that Kafka deals with this basic calamity, he deals with an eminently existentialist theme. Kafka's protagonists are lonely because they are caught midway between a notion of good and evil, whose scope they cannot determine and whose contradiction they cannot resolve:..............

Abstract: Throughout history, theorists have been fascinated with the distinctive character of human development, unique as compared with other mammals in having evolved a lengthy period of dependency known as childhood. In spite of regional, cultural, and social differences in the experience of being a child and in how childhood is understood, the social-constructionist view of childhood has become the dominant conceptual model. This particular study entirely based on the available secondary data about the development of the concept 'childhood' and 'child care...............
