Highlights of Readers Digest India magazine, November 2014 Airplane crashes capture our imagination and haunt our memory. Even as the probability of surviving a crash is 76 percent, the odds of being the only one left alive are infinitesimal. Our cover story this month is about the fascinating stories of three such sole survivors of plane crashes who cheated death. Given today's changed social and sexual climate, the need for a renewed understanding of adolescent sexual behaviour is pressing. "When Young Girls Are at Risk" is the result of a researcher's exhaustive work on the subject, and should give parents and youngsters much insight into a little-discussed topic. Other highlights of the November issue include The RD Interview with Sanal Edamaruku, a freethinker who, thanks to a colonial law, has been hounded in modern India. And read about the plight of elephant populations across the globe in our Bonus Read "Dying for Ivory." Get some food for thought from our "Points to Ponder" and reaffirm your faith in the goodness of people with "Kindness of Strangers." As always, our humour sections are here with their dose of laughter for you.
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...
