2021About the Book:- “Bagh o Bahar” is not an original work, but an urdu translation, by Mir Amman, of the Persian romance, entitled “Kissah-i Chahar Darwesh,” or “story of the four Darweshes,” composed by the celebrated poet, Amir Khusrau, of Delhi. The Tale of the four Darweshes has now become a work of so much general interest-inasmuch as it is the book in which every officer in India, civil or military, must undergo an examination- that no apology scems requisite for presenting the public for the first time, with a translation of it. About the Author:-Edward Backhouse Eastwick CB (1814 –1883) was an English orientalist, diplomat and Conservative Member of Parliament. He wrote and edited a number of books on South Asian countries. These included a Sindhi vocabulary and a grammar of the Hindustani language. He was educated at Charterhouse and at Merton College, Oxford. He joined the Bombay infantry in 1836, but, owing to his talent for languages, was soon given a political post. In 1843 he translated the Persian Kessahi Sanjan, or History of the Arrival of the Parsees in India; and he wrote a Life of Zoroaster, a Sindhi vocabulary, and various papers in the transactions of the Bombay Asiatic Society. In 1845 he was appointed professor of Hindustani at Haileybury College. Two years later he published a Hindustani grammar, and in subsequent years a new edition of Saadi's Gulistán, with a translation in prose and verse, also an edition with vocabulary of the Hindi translation of Chatur Chuj Misr's Prem Sagar, and translations of the Bagh-o-Bahar, and of the Anwar-i Suhaili of Bidpai. In 1851 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. The Title 'THE BAGH O BAHAR OR THE GARDEN AND THE SPRING written/authored/edited by EDWARD B. EASTWICK', published in the year 2021.

2023About The Book : This little work should have reached a fourth edition may be taken as pretty clear indication that ithas met a recognised want amongst our Indian fellow-subjects, for whose instruction and guidance it was originally issued. To render it worthy of continued favour, and to make it additionally useful, has been myanxious endeavour. Of any merit which this edition may be found to possess over the preceding one, a very large portion isdue to Dr. J. E. T. Aitchison, C.I.E., Surgeon-Major in H.M. Indian (Bengal) Medical Service, who, witha liberality that demands my warmest thanks, placed at my disposal an elaborate MS. commentary on the Third Edition, embodying his own professional experience in India (extending over many years), and supplying the vernacular names of the various drugs in the Punjábí, Kashmírí, and Leh languages. Of this document it need hardly be said I have availed myself largely, my only regret being that I could not insertit in extenso, but to have done this would greatly have exceeded the prescribed limits of the work. As itis, Dr. Aitchison has laid me under a vast obligation, which I am only too happy to have this opportunity of acknowledging. Five new articles have been added to the List of Drugs: two at the suggestion of Dr. Aitchison; namely,(1) Sugar, and (2) Kerosene Oil, which latter, owing to its extensive use for lighting purposes during the past few years, is now obtainable in nearly every bazaar in the country; the other three being the (3) Cinchona Febrifuge (Quinetum), (4) Petroleum, and (5) Rock Salt. About The Author : Edward John Waring (14 December 1819–22 January 1891) was a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London and a surgeon in the British East India Company. He wrote several books on medicine including A Manual of Practical Therapeutics (1865), Pharmacopoeia of India (1866), and the two-volume Bibliotheca Therapeutica (1878). Waring was the sixth son of Captain Henry Waring of the Royal Navy and Margaret, daughter of Jacob Henry Franks of Misterton Hall, Leicestershire. A brother of Edward was John Burley Waring while another brother Francis Robert Waring was an anti-evolutionist. Edward was born in Tiverton, studied at Lyme Regis under George Roberts and Ilminster Grammar School under Rev. J. Allen before going to study medicine at Bristol. He was made CIE in 1881 and was a Fellow of the Royal Medico-Chirurgical Society and an honorary member of the Société de Pharmacie, Paris. He gifted his collection of books to the Army Medical School at Netley and he supported the London Medical Mission at St. Giles's. He began to lose sight in 1884 but a cataract removal operation restored some sight. He died at his home in Clifton Gardens, Maids Vale on 22 January 1891.

2022About The Book : The following brief sketch of the history of botany makes no claim to originality save in the mode of presentation of the subject-matter. It comprises the substance of a course of lectures given to students of the University of Liverpool during their third year of residence, and has for its object the discussion of the more important features in the advance of botanical knowledge from the earliest times down to, approximately, the present day. The ordinary university student, in the course of an already overcrowded curriculum, has only the minimum of time to devote to the study of the history of the science, and not always the knowledge or experience requisite to form a proper estimate of the relative values of the results achieved by the numberless investigators whose names appear on the pages of the larger text-books, still less to picture for himself in correct perspective, the evolution of the science as a whole. About The Author : Robert John Harvey Gibson CBE FRSE FLS DL JP (1860–1929) was a Scottish botanist and academic author. In literature his name often appears as R. J. Harvey-Gibson. First working as a demonstrator in botany at the University of Edinburgh, he received a post at University College, Liverpool, and thereafter spent most of his working life there, rising to professor of botany in 1894. The college later became the University of Liverpool. During his tenure he designed and oversaw the creation of the Hartley Botanical Institute.In 1885 he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, his proposers were William Abbott Herdman, Sir John Murray, James Geikie and Patrick Geddes. He resigned in 1894 and was re-elected in 1914 his proposers wereWilliam Abbott Herdman, Frederick Orpen Bower, James Geikie and Cargill Gilston Knott. He acted as examiner for the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain. On 4 March 1914, he was appointed a deputy lieutenant of Lancashire. In the First World War he served as a lieutenant colonel in the South African Military Command and received a Military CBE for his services in 1919. He retired in 1921 and spent time in both Grasmere and Leamington before settling in Glasgow. The Title 'Outlines of the History of Botany written/authored/edited by R. J.

2017ill., br. Un tempo, nel mondo rurale, era la medicina popolare a prendersi cura della maggior parte delle persone ammalate o infortunate attraverso rimedi naturali come l'utilizzo di piante spontanee o di altre sostanze reperite sul territorio: ci si affidava alla figura del guaritore locale, soprattutto alcune figure femminili individuate all'interno della comunità. Sono molti i rimedi popolari qui raccolti e, insieme alle numerose ricette, sono indicate le modalità per la preparazione delle principali forme galeniche: tisane, infusi, decotti, oleoliti, tinture madri, grappe medicate, vini, sciroppi e succhi. Il manuale presenta più di un centinaio di schede monografiche delle singole piante di origine spontanea, facilmente riconoscibili, con l'indicazione delle proprietà, dell'impiego, della parte da utilizzare e della modalità di utilizzo.

2012ill., ril. "I tre miracoli della natura" descrive, in forma di racconto e con minimi cenni di botanica, l'importanza di tre piante che crescono nei paesi africani e asiatici. L'importanza di queste piante si manifesta durante i periodi di siccità, che, nei paesi con clima secco, prostra la povera gente, già martoriata dalla malaria, che miete ogni giorno migliaia di vittime. Queste piante, dunque, crescono proprio dove il bisogno incalza e la povertà dilaga, quasi un dono provvidenziale per le popolazioni segnate da una crudo destino. Il libro, per quanto fondato sul piano scientifico, si presenta di immediata e chiara leggibilità, disponibile per tutti coloro che amano sapere come la natura, tante volte ostile, possa anche essere una favolosa alleata della vita. Vuole anzi essere un inno alla terra che tanto ci offre, perché i suoi miracolosi equilibri non siano offesi dalla cecità degli uomini. L'alternativa è la distruzione della nostra casa planetaria.
