Dear Sumit,

1) Publisher of book is yet to be finalize, may be from, Prashant Publishers, New Delhi, Ess Ess, New Delhi, Atlantic, New Delhi, Scientific, Jodhpur-Agra, Global Vision, New Delhi. Actually we have regularly terms with these publishers and trying to settle the some issues. Whoever the publisher accept, we will send the order. 

Secondly, till date, I have not seen any Indian authors from the field of Library and Information Science, who published there work from Wiley, McGraw-Hill, or Oxford publishers. Exceptions may be there.

2) Yes you can reuse the certain portions of your work, we will give you the permission. But, not for more than 40% work.

Thanks,
