INTRODUCTION
The Anglo-Indian community is an ethnic minority Indian community.
Anglo-Indians are the only English speaking, Christian community in India, whose Mother tongue is English and who have a Western lifestyle in the sub-continent of India. Anglo-Indians originated during the Colonial period in India. When British soldiers and traders had affairs or married Indian women their offspring came to be known as Anglo-Indians or Eurasians in history.
Anglo-Indians are therefore not just Asians, but they are Anglo-Indians, who have their own unique race, culture, heritage and traditions.
The Anglo-Indians in India are gradually declining in numbers. A large number of the Anglo-Indians immigrated to the West from the 1940s after India’s Independence in 1947.
The opinions expressed in this book, on the Anglo-Indian community are my own views and opinions.
If you enjoy reading this book because you are Anglo-Indian then refer this book to your friends, relatives and pass it down to your children and grand-children.
If you are a member of any other minority race, then you will find this book useful. There are a number of features which I have included to make this book interesting. The tools for race preservation have also been explored in this handbook, and can be used by any race or culture, in need of preservation.

CHAPTER 1
THE ANGLO-INDIAN GENOME PROJECT
After a certain age, the more one becomes oneself, the more obvious one’s family traits become.
• Proust
If we try to search for an Anglo-Indian five hundred years from now, will we find any? I wonder if the community will still be in abundance or will we be on the threshold of extinction, or will we become as extinct as the Dodo?
The Human Genome Project (HGP) was launched in 1990, it is biology’s first large science project and is planned for a period of fifteen years with an outlay of three billion dollars. It is an International cooperative effort involving eighteen countries and two hundred and fifty laboratories. The principal aim of the project is to create a map of the entire set of Genes(genome) in the human cell by decoding the three billion units or base pairs(bp) of the human DNA. The Genome is called the Instruction Book of Life
and, when finally interpreted, will provide the ultimate answers to how we develop from single-celled zygotes and how we can function, as healthy human beings. More immediately the information will lead to a better understanding of the cause of gene-associated diseases and help physicians to design better strategies to cure them.
The real decoding has just begun. Detecting the genes, locating them in chromosomes and understanding their structure and function are objectives perhaps attainable only after several decades.
Craig Venter’s genetic research organization Celera
has determined the genetic code of five individuals-three females and two males. They include Hispanic, Asian, African and Caucasian origin. The objective was to determine whether race has any genetic or scientific basis. The analysis only reinforced what we already know- we are all members of the same population whereas as individuals we are unique. But, there is still a distinct possibility that each race on the planet has its own unique genetic peculiarity.
Genome research has also caused a lot of job-related anxiety in America. Many people who have been diagnosed to have a genetic disease might lose their jobs and may not get another placement. They would not get Insurance protection either. In one extreme case, an employee whose foetus was found to have a gene for cystic fibrosis was asked by her employer to get the pregnancy terminated.
Genetic blackmail is possible as even the cells in hair trimmings swept out of barber shops would be adequate to provide Genome Maps. The maps so obtained could reveal the genetic state of the concerned individual and in some cases could be a powerful weapon to threaten people in high positions. Samples from routine blood tests of citizens could be used to build vast DNA data banks of the population, for the use or misuse by the Government.
Cloning is another class of research, which is still in its experimental stages. Plant and Animal Cloning will only be possible, if the Scientists persevere in their endeavours. It is still at a sensitive stage, for scientist to attempt the Cloning of Human beings.
It has been recently found that when Animal Clones were developed from animal cells, the cloned animals had a number of deformities and defects, like enlarged hearts or underdeveloped lungs. In most of the cases the animals did not survive. It may take another ten to fifteen years before scientist can attempt and succeed at the Cloning of the first human being.
Human Cloning would then make it
