The Cases
The books have done their best to highlight, which perhaps no other writer in Bengali fiction has attempted, an in-depth psychoanalysis of the human mind. According to Humayun Ahmed, the creator of this character, Misir Ali is the most logical person. Misir Ali believes that nothing can happen without reason . To him, there is a rational explanation behind everything. Being a professor of a subject that deals with the human mind, he is interested in the way that mind works. And he tries to explain every unusual thing that he confronts with his wisdom and logic. In each book, a new mystery finds Misir Ali, though he is reluctant to take cases. But he will get himself involved in the mystery. As the mystery is solved, the readers will often get a plausible explanation of cases because logic is always the centerpiece of all his theories.

Famous quotes containing the word cases:
“You all know that even when women have full rights, they still remain fatally downtrodden because all housework is left to them. In most cases housework is the most unproductive, the most barbarous and the most arduous work a woman can do. It is exceptionally petty and does not include anything that would in any way promote the development of the woman.”
—Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870–1924)
