"Poverty was the predominant paradigm within which science policy was constructed in the late colonial, nationalist, and post-independence eras of India. Whether as critics of its poverty or as architects of measures for its poverty eradication, Indias commentators called on a broad framework of science to both diagnose and treat poverty. Yet, when we think of science in India today, this earlier priority of poverty eradication is hard to find. Poverty eradication as a goal in itself seems to have fallen off Indias scientific agenda. What accounts for this? Has the problem of poverty in India been solved? Or has it become an inconvenient subject alongside the new narratives that frame India as a site of remarkable economic growth? Seeking answers to these questions, the essays in this volume take a distinctive approach to the politics of health in modern India. Insisting that the commodification of health and medicine is fundamentally about economies of bodies, yet irreducible to conventional economic frameworks, the essays pursue the questions of who wins and who loses in Indias health economies. As this problematic transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries, the essays cut across studies of development and demography, research laboratories, and the rural and urban poor, combining the methodologies of anthropologists, sociologists, health economists, science studies and public health scholars, and historians."

"This volume covers concepts such as life?s origin, hypothesis of Panspermia and of life possibility in the Cosmos. The topic of extraterrestrial life is currently ?hot? and the object of several congresses and conferences. While the diversity of ?normal? biota is well known, life on the edge of the extremophiles is more limited and less distributed. Other subjects discussed are astrobiology with the frozen worlds of mars, Europa and titan where extant or extinct microbial life may exist in subsurface oceans, conditions on icy mars with its saline, alkaline, and liquid water which has been recently discovered, chances of habitable Earth-like [or the terrestrial analogues] exoplanets, and SETI?s search for extraterrestrial Intelligence."

"ABSTRAKPembangunan Jembatan Selat Sunda (JSS) adalah salah satu infrastrukturyang dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi Indonesia karenamenghubungkan dua pulau besar yaitu Pulau Sumatera dan Pulau Jawa. Namunpembangunan proyek ini memiliki ketidaklayakan secara finansial. Melaluipendekatan Value Engineering, biaya pembangunan JSS ini diperkirakanmencapai 187 triliun rupiah dengan Rate of Return (ROR) 7,25%. Nilai RORyang di bawah nilai Minimum Attractive Rate of Return (MARR) 12% membuattidak ada investor tertarik untuk berinvestasi pada proyek ini. Nilai RORoptimum dapat dibuat melalui kombinasi pola sharing sharing antara pemerintahdan swasta pada Initial cost (IC), Operate&maintanance (OM), dan Revenue (R).Selanjutnya dibuat skema kelembagaan berbasis Strategic Alliance Public PrivatePartnership (SAPPP).

ABSTRACTSunda Strait Bridge (JSS) is one of the infrastructure that could boosteconomic growth in Indonesia because it connects two large islands of Sumatraand Java. However, the problems is financially impropriety. By the ValueEngineering approach, the cost of construction is estimated to reach 187 trillionrupiah with Rate of Return (ROR) at 7.25%. This ROR values are below theMinimum Attractive Rate of Return (MARR) at 12% made no investors interestedin investing in this project. ROR optimum value can be created through acombination of patterns of sharing between government and private sharing onInitial Cost (IC), Operate & maintanance (OM), and Revenue (R). Furthermorecreated an institutional scheme based on Strategic Alliance Public PrivatePartnership (SAPPP)."
