We live in an age of miracle technology, instant gratification... and a thousand tiny annoyances that can ruin your day faster than you can say, "low battery."

From the coffee shop that "forgets" your oat milk, to the streaming service that freezes during the finale, to the smart fridge that decides to judge your snacking habits, this is modern life in all its mildly infuriating glory.

The Little Book of First World Problems is a hilarious guided tour of the everyday dramas we pretend don't matter but secretly do. You'll laugh, wince, and possibly shout "YES, THAT!" more than once as you recognise your own petty grievances past, present, and, thanks to a healthy dash of future-gazing, the bizarre inconveniences yet to come (teleportation traffic jams, anyone?).

Equal parts social observation and comedy therapy, this is the perfect companion for anyone who's ever had a phone die mid-selfie, a parcel vanishes into the "safe place" dimension, or an AI assistant that just won't listen.

Although life's little problems might never go away, at least we can laugh at them together.

Sports Studies in India: Expanding the Field
Sports Studies in India, as a part of The Oxford India Studies in Contemporary Society, emerges from a sociological curiosity about sporting experience in terms of participation in sports as well as its theorization in scholarship. This volume aims to forge interest in the field of sports studies and offers a platform for a wide range of studies on sports, employing a variety of approaches, perspectives, and methodologies. The contributions in this volume sport as a microcosm of society, which affords an opportunity to understand the complex nexus of society-state-media. They also examine sport within a political economy perspective through lenses of religion, gender, and class, among others. Interspersed in this collection are case studies, critical explorations of sports in Bollywood, and autobiographical accounts that not only enrich the narrative, but also demonstrate the value of that different genres bring to the discourse of sports studies. In a pandemic-afflicted world where sports is taking new shape, when new norms may well come into being, this collection establishes a framework for understanding change in the realm of sports and society in India
