My Book: Cover page

It was back in November, after the end of my civil service exams, that I started writing a book based on UPSC paper-2 syllabus of psychology mains. The syllabus includes application of psychology in various fields, such as defence psychology, organizational psychology etc. I had completed the book in a record time of one month and luckily found a good publisher in New Vishal Publications. My publisher, Mridul Oberoi, has kick-started the process of putting the book in e-format and recently sent me two chapters of the book... n his editing and presentation r really good.

So now I have moved on to the next level: am brain-storming on a possible cover page and back cover. I need a really fundoo cover pic/ layout. Any idea guys? I have tentatively named the book "Applied psychology: An India centric perspective"

the front cover should have a clipart of outline of human face and a spiral in the head. are you getting me..or better still in the background put UPSC, PCS, and names of popular Psychology authors in watermark ( washed out) font....backcover me apni chhoti si phot, about u , your current position, and a small para in praise of the book...will refine the suggestion on front cover later...

hi smarak.the name of the book suggests that u r writing in indian perspective. So I think cover page should reflect some thing regading the Indian Psychology or how Psycho evolved in india. Some thing like that..I m also thinking so u will also...best of luck..
