Overview

The engineering profession today faces a crisis of values. Technical excellence alone cannot design a just, sustainable world - the engineer must first cultivate an ethical, purposeful self.Living in Harmony: A Comprehensive Guide to Value Education is a UGC-aligned textbook for undergraduate engineering students, structured across five units and 28 carefully sequenced chapters. Beginning with personal self-exploration and the nature of happiness, the book progresses through harmony in the human being, family and society, nature and existence, and culminates in a rigorous treatment of professional ethics and humanistic vision.Each chapter is enriched with Civil Engineering Application scenarios, cross-cultural perspectives, self-exploration exercises, and global academic references. Landmark case studies - from the Bhopal Gas Tragedy to Copenhagen's climate-adaptive infrastructure - make abstract ethical principles immediately relevant to practice.Drawing on Indian philosophical traditions alongside MIT, Harvard, and NPTEL frameworks, the book bridges the gap between ""how to build"" and ""why to build."" A glossary of Sanskrit philosophical terms, multimedia resource guide, and application exercises complete the learning journey.More than a textbook, this is an invitation to ask: what kind of engineer - and what kind of human being - do you wish to become? Essential reading for every student who believes the built environment must serve human flourishing.
