Let's Talk about Guy's Girls and Sex

Can you catch AIDS by having lunch with a HIV+ve friend?  How do gay people look? What is an erection? Is this love or just lust? What are the different contraceptives available in the market?  For that matter, how does one get pregnant?

 LET’S TALK ABOUT GUYS, GIRLS AND SEX is a candid collection of personal anecdotes and information that attempts to answer the above questions. It is targeted for young adults and their parents.

 Each chapter starts with a personal narrative that makes the topic easier to relate to and could be the start of a conversation. It is a light read, humorous and raunchy and yet imparts information.

​Come in for a haircut! You choose.. We cut! says the sign outside a hair cutting saloon, so a lion walks in to do just that. But where is everyone? And who are these other lions staring at him?

​Jagadish and the
​talking plant


In the early 20th century, after making pathbreaking innovations in wireless communication, pioneering scientist Jagadish Chandra Bose (J.C. Bose) turned to the world of plants. Merging the boundaries of biology and physics, he became a forerunner of biophysics, inventing ingenious instruments to study plant intelligence. His research remains radical even today, more than 150 years after his birth. In this first-of-its-kind comic book, the maverick scientist’s journey is imagined through the eyes of Mimosa Pudica — the ‘touch-me-not’ plant he used extensively in his research. Extracts from a well-known speech and an entry from Bose’s own journal offer a direct glimpse into a fascinating mind. A crisp timeline gives an overview of his life, while humorous asides and quick facts pack in a punch.
