[on the last pages of the book]
Noorjahan Ghazi is a versatile writer. This is her second book. Her primary interests are society, culture, social change, and, of course, humanity, which is an essential message of all scriptures. She has been presenting papers on Hyderabad and South Asian cultural issues as well as papers on women’s status at seminars. Her main subjects are sociology and Islamic studies; she achieved her masters degree from Osmania University, Hyderabad, India. She is a permanent resident of Ottawa, Canada.
Noorjahan has been writing articles for more than forty years, and her articles have been published by newspapers and journals from several places in India: Hyderabad, Kashmir, Calcutta, Delhi, and Jeddah; her work has also been published in London and Canada. She was born in India. At the age of eleven, she received an award from the national company known as A.V.M company]for an essay she wrote; the topic was “unity is strength.” She also contributed articles to her college magazine.
In this book Noorjahan Ghazi addresses different aspects of humanity. She has tried to enable readers to notice the ignored figures of our society—grandparents and grandchildren. Her goal is to motivate readers to appreciate human ethical values, since she believes that ‘the fast- changing values are the pollution of our fast- paced lives’. She discusses the social behavior of the present generations, and about the ‘weak relationship between parents and children’, and she believes that ‘poor upbringing leads to violence’. It will stimulate the reader, as societies in our world are facing this issue.

Noorjahan Ghazi has reviewed a few books too. One book was written by an ambassador, another was by the director of ‘Organization of Islamic Countries’, and one was published in Canada. She believes that books should be used to educate society and to promote an understanding of one another as human beings.view less
