One (humble) suggestion is to partition them into few and bring out first portion of it as a ...either cohesive theme by itself (and thus a stand alone book) or volume 1 of the series.Shiv writes...
Thanks Rajesh. Every time I start editing my work - I feel dissatisfied with the completeness of some things and am simply trying to learn more. And in the meantime a lot of new genetics material has appeared - but that is less of a problem - that can be included fairly easily.
Someone wrote that as soon as one presses the 'publish' button, an author realizes immediately how s/he would re-write 80% of what s/he just published. I can tell my from two data points that this is literally and figuratively true!
Another thing to watch for is that we may put too much into one book. I certainly did and thus it is very dense (to some...not all). I was not sure if I would ever publish (or will have time to publish) anything else after that one attempt (When did the Mahabharata War happen?) and thus wanted to insert as much as of my original research into it. Even then, some 70%+ I could not include in the book.
On multiple occasions, few academics who have read my work (Mahabharata war) have told me that the material it contains would fill 'at least 5 quality PhD dissertations.
Only my $0.02
. This is true not just of oriental studies and Indology, but of Christianity and Islam itself. But that's another couple-a cans of worms entirely.
. Keep hammering at the biases and dragging them into the daylight, and it will eventually sink in with a new generation - the old fogies (no insult intended to older people, but a lot of insult is very much intended to fogies) will never change. For instance - Freud would today be regarded as *the expert* in psychology, if Jung, his disciple, had not come up with his own theories in opposition to Freud. Since Jung did this not too long after Freud came up with his theories, the same generation which Freud addressed, got to see that Freud wasn't such an unchallenged expert after all. Now since we are so many generations away from the prime movers of the European fiction-masquerading-as-history age, we just have to use the advantage we have, which is, that we don't care what the intervening generations thought, or even what the current generation thinks, but we are darn-well going to address the coming generations, over which those Europeans have no control.
and mango from a variety of grinders and pounding stones. Starches of lentils and large and small grained cereals were recovered from the interior surface of storage jars, as for example the starch from Macrotyloma sp. illustrated in Figure 6. Solanum (cf. eggplant), zingiber (cf. ginger) and curcuma (cf. turmeric) (Figure 7) starches were extracted from a cooking pot or handi (a deep narrow-mouthed cooking vessel).
