I have just started on psychology. This is the book I am referring to
Gerrig, J. Richard & Zimbardo, G.Phillip. (2005). Psychology and Life. (17th Ed.). Dehli: Pearson Education in South Asia
(Also suggested bt amubarak) but this book has a newer edition as well. I havent checked that out but I will if I feel I need it. Right now I am studying from the book mentioned.
You can practice some objectives here: http://wps.ablongman.com/ab_gerrig_p...95187-,00.html
(go to flashcards...study and then do the objectives).
Also, if you dont have any formal background with this subj then have a look at this book as well - Morgan, C.T., King, R.A., Schopler,J. & Weisz, J.R. (1986). Introduction to Psychology. (7th Ed.). New York: Mc Graw Hill Book Company (it is for beginers).
At the moment, I am referring to this syllabus http://www.cssforum.com.pk/css-syllabus.php
Thats it. I have no idea where to go beside this syllabus. But yes, do have a look at past papers and see what topics appeared again and again and practice those.
Hope it helps
I did not draw technical maps like Geography I just drew simple maps like they are given in K Ali.
Well personal questions are asked in interview and as my husband is also a DMG officer so they asked questions relating to his profession.A lot

mid day energy slump(an article)
Energy Enhancers: Beating The Midday Slump:If you’re anything like the rest of us, you’re body begins to “shut down” before you’re office or work establishment does. Even if you’re a stay-at-home parent, you can feel yourself dosing off, just about as your kids are winding up or getting home from school. It’s known as midday slump and it often leaves no doubt why the Europeans made Siesta-time part of their daily workday routine. But, as North Americans, enjoying most other life luxuries, afternoon downtime is not one of them.
According to experts, the reason most of us feel sleepy in the afternoon is because of our body’s circadian rhythm, or our natural clock, which tends to slow during midday. And, they note, that the feelings of tiredness and lethargy are only enhanced due to lack of sleep from the night before, or a lunch that was high in fat and/or calories.
However, you don’t have to let your biological slowdown, slow down your progress or productivity. Instead you take steps to perk up your attitude and your energy.
1. Work Perks: Give yourself a java jolt. According to experts it’s a safe, effective way to wake yourself up, especially if you’re not dependent on it to function. They note, that those who have several cups of this caffeinated stimulant per day can become immune to its effects and benefits and they suggest limiting your (afternoon) intake to one, eight-ounce cup of coffee.
2. Spice Up Your Afternoon With Variety: Routine tasks can lead to boredom, which can ultimately lead to increased drowsiness. Experts suggest varying your daily routine when you notice that you are becoming fatigued and “unproductive”. If it’s impossible to change tasks you may want to consider taking a five-minute break to divert your attention from the routine.
3. Refuel: It’s probably been about three to four hours since you last ate something and your resources are probably running low. Experts suggest a light snack combining carbohydrates, protein and a little fat (the good kind found in low-fat yogurt or hummus), which can help re-energize you by boosting your blood sugar. They stress however, from giving in to the temptation of sugar-packed snacks like candy bars. Professionals point out that the immediate “lift” will eventually be counteracted with an even quicker crash, leaving you more tired and weary than before.
4. Get Movin’: Exercise is key to keeping healthy, fit, and energized. But, if you don’t have time to hit the gym during or after lunch consider a short walk around the block, parking lot, neighborhood or building during lunch or when you feel that midday lull. Activity, say experts, not only wakes up your mind and body, it also burns off calories.
5. Hit The Pause Button: If possible but the work aside and close your eyes for a few minutes. Better yet, if you’ve got a very understanding employer or are a stay-at-home parent, try to take a midday nap, even for just 20 minutes. Less than 20 minutes may not be enough and more than a half an hour may be too much, placing you into a phase of deep sleep that will cause you to feel tired and irritable when you wake up…so, don’t forget to set your alarm

Challenges of Good Governance
The nation celebrated this 'Pakistan Day' in a significant and unconventional manner. It was a noteworthy occassion in history of Pakistan this time for the challenges facing in maintaining good governance are yet to appear in coming days for government in place. The leaders of Pakistan adopt the course and principles which had been conveyed by the founder of Pakistan to make a true enlightened moderated state which ensures basic rights of people, secures the prosperity of Pakistan. Their deeds and actions would determine in future either their policies are in accordance with the sayings of Quaid-e-azam or deviation from his golden principles.
The elements including failure of Civil and military rule, change in global politics, hesitation towards delivering change are the major reasons in augmenting problems. Such basic facts are underscoring the credibility of political stability and result in weakening economic structure. Uprising poverty, continueous descending literacy rate and torture in society are playing proactive role in undermining the writ of the government.
"The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first objective"
----- JEFERSON
Growth of political middle class, progress in private sector, civil society expanison and contribution of media in the betterment of mass wisdom have paved off the way in polishing modern way of governance. But the national politics seem to be lacking in objective oriented tactics and political leaders are living in the past. Instead of political agitation of past, the issues which direct in establishing prosperous future should be addressed.
Political crisis in Pakistan is long awaiting pure leadership which is ready to take profitable initiatives. Steps in achieving the genuine targets can not be possible without planning and neglecting these issues
It is important to take into account the following 3 basic norms which fulfill the aim of good governance.
1- Policies should be generated in best interest of the people which primarily address the issues confronting a common man. The complex decisions must be put on to win the confidence of masses and are beneficial in acion.
2- Restoration of economy, rehabilitation of democracy and reinstitution of security for lasting political consensus.
3- Reformation and structuring of institutions so that they might bear fruits through their role in important state`s policies.
Such steps are enormously bearful in the present scenario and their impacts would be equally progressive in eradicating the agitation. Not only strengthening the machinary of government in a positive way but also combating those obstacles which persist in the smooth running of state affairs.
Democracy is diret self government, over all the pople, by all the people.
----------THEODORE PARKER
The politics of confrontation does not allow political leaders attention to keep an eye on issues which are meaninful in progress and political stability of the country. The consequences of Pakistan People's party parliamentarians (PPPP) led government of allies have obsecure images of incipid control of governance and restrictions are present which does not let the true political agenda to flourish.
The policy must be revised for further delay might complicate the situation gradually. A roadmap must be defined through proper legislation and durable methodology equipped with stauch directional policies of government must be engaged.
The execution of law is more important then making of them.
------- JEFFERSON
The recent crisis in Punjab has provided strong grounds that government without taking people's will on board might fail in achieving its goals. The government was purely focussed on posing its self driven agenda but later on had to retreat. The fact was revealed after a meeting with Nawaz Sharif by the Prime minister Yousaf Raza Gilani and was convinced that politics of confrontation is harmful for both parties e.g PPPP and PML(N) and would derail the process of reconciliation.
Both the leaders in their statement were of the opinion that all politicak matters would be sorted out by reconciliation and in best interest of the state.The centre is already surrounded by dense clouds of danger from inside and outside. It is near to the orbit of perils that is near to approach. The discussions between both leaders ended in furnishing support and to find solution of the issues jointly. By adopting this, it is not difficult for the opposition to maintain the true spirit of politics and in promoting national interest. So that the mandate which was offered through the voters would be honoured and guarantee basic human rights of citizens.
The Prime minister and the President have different sets of opinion in possession; therefore, it is truely the responsibility of PML(Q) and its followers to recongnise circumstances rightly and effectively. The roots of political stability can only be nurtured if the atmosphere of reconciliation allow the common man to avail that relief. Hinderances are avoided with patience and wisdom. The note worthy of these is 17th amendment. Currently, the status quo is irreversible and environment of trust can only be backed by implenting the charter of democracy(CoD).
The stance of Prime Minister to stand firm on process of reconciliation and maintaing consensus is a positive step in overwhelming its goals. The speech of Mohammad Nawaz Sharif, leader of PML(N) on 23rd March 2009 that our party would entirely support the government is admissible but issues relating to power sharing must be resolved as early as possible. The balance of power and exercising authority between President and Prime minister require immediate attention for the resolution of these issues would assist in bring about issues in connection with folks.
The at stake security and progress of country need tremendous review. As a first step concerete action must be taken to support the triggered economy. The economic stress can be avoidable by employing mutual political consent and reconciliation policy.Beside these measures, the 1 points resolution passed by the parliament in October 2008 must be pragmatically implemented with its true spirit. By this means, the growing militancy from Swat to Fata could be minimised to get rid of emerging ever devastating situation.
The policy with the mutual consent of Obama's administration should be adopted by the government clear in its objectives and result oriented. The policy should not only be based on guaranteeing the national security but also portray a picture of the people of Pakistan as a responsible nation to protecct her homeland from hostile circumstances.
Born in inquity and conceived in sin, the spirit of nationalism has never ceased to bend human institutions to the service of dissention and distress
-------- VEBLIN
The Prime minister Yousaf Raza Gilani after special envoy of U.S.A Richard Holbrooke and chairman joint chief of staff Mike Mullen visit must cakk upon session consisting of all political forces and take them in confidence. Both the higher ranks of America have discussed the policy with prime minister of Pakistan in the days to come.
The third element for good governance is practical reforms action in institutional framework. Two aspects are further contributing. One, development of institutions on better grounds. Second, personal liking or perception must be dropped. Important issues among these are collection of tax from the state by the government; in turn provide the lasting peace, stability and guarding territorial borders.
Nothing is far achieving if state impose her basic policies without delay and forthwith. Good governance is a heritage of strong institutions and economic prosperity in the country.
Leadership is undergoing an examination where the characters would be judged by political deeds. It is need of the hour to think above the personal interest and collective thought can deliver the most in coping facing challenges. It is essential to take notice of those factors that ponder Pakistan an abortive state; a state lack in competent and intellectual leadership.

@ theelegant444,
Your essay seems to be "Challenges of Good Governance FACED BY PAKISTAN".
It is true , when u r talking about Good Governance, it would be related to Pakistan. BUT it is not mentioned here to write only about Pakistan.
So if u add only a 10% of ur essay in a global scenario, it would be more productive.
I will write the same essay by ADDING following things
1. Nature of Governance challenges in the world history(As IR was my optional subject) and its Evolution
2. Challenges faced by US in the past (US-History was also my optional subject)
3. Challenges faced by globe especially USA in current scenario like terrorism, economic recession etc….
4. And the rest of 70% about Pakistan current issues.
