2021About The Book – In a country as rich in fascinating horticultural plants as is India, A number of books have been written on gardening, mostly by amateurs whose love for their hobby is apparent. Many of these works contain sections on fruit, but the main emphasis has been on ornamental gardening. The growing of fruit for the market has been left largely in the hands of poor and uneducated men who have been content to continue the practices of their ancestors, and where these have failed, to accept failure. The potential importance of the fruit industry, and its great value to the country, were largely overlooked. When the author started practising and teaching fruit growing in India, the lack of any satisfactory text-book, and the scarcity of scientific reports on the subject proved great difficulties. Scientific investigation of the problems of pomology has increased markedly in recent years, particularly under the stimulus of the Imperial Council of Agricultural Research. The present attempt to meet that need was begun earlier. The material has been gathered and organized a chapter or two at a time, and published unbound, primarily for the use of students of Allahabad Agricultural Institute. About The Author – W.B. Hayes works on Fruit growing method in India, specially in the present state of Uttar Pradesh at Allahabad Agricultural Institute. The organizations, namely,Imperial Council of Agricultural Research, Department of Agriculture, Bombay and Indian Journal of Horticulture appreciated his contribution. The most important works by the author is “ Fruit Growing in India,” Agricultural college work in India,” “ The Improvement of Indian Horticulture. The Title 'Fruit Growing in India written/authored/edited by W.B.Hayes', published in the year 2021. The ISBN 9788121299206 is assigned to the Hardcover version of this title.

2022About The Book: Nature in each zone of the earth has peculiar beauties, whether it be in the sunny isles of the South Sea, under the cool shade of the northern oaks, in the lovely well-watered mountain valleys, on the picturesque glaciers of the higher ranges, or in the midst of the Lybian deserts. But nature is silent to the unobservant man, and that rich spring of enjoyment escapes him, which has power to delight and cheer us, even when suffering from the severest blows of fate.If we ask ourselves, what it peculiarly is, by which Nature speaks to us, we shall find that it is indeed by the whole aspect of the earth’s surface ; but that it is chiefly its living covering, the presence or absence of vegetation, that makes so deep an impression on our minds. The whole mass of species of plants is in a certain proportion to the different latitudes of the earth’s surface. The proportion increases as we approach the equator, and decreases as we remove from it. The Title 'Outlines of the Geography of Plants written/authored/edited by F.J. F. Meyen', published in the year 2022. The ISBN 9788121263337 is assigned to the Hardcover version of this title. This book has total of pp. 451 (Pages).

2022About The Book : The book deal with the cultivable plants that include flowers, shrubs at one end of the spectrum to vegetables and fruits. Gardening is undertaken as a hobby by many people although professional gardening is undertaken at commercial and government institutions. On behalf of this book the author got fame and become first keeper of the Jordell Laboratory at the Royal Botanic Garden. About The Author : Dr Dukinfield Henry Scott FRS HFRSE LLD (1854 -1934) was a British botanist. The standard author abbreviation D.H.Scott is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name. In 1882, Scott was appointed Assistant to the Professor of Botany at University College, London, and in 1885 as Assistant Professor in Biology (Botany) at the Royal College of Science, South Kensington. He was the first lecturer in botany at University College who allowed women to attend his classes. One of his most brilliant students was Harold Wager, who went on to become a Fellow of the Royal Society of London in 1904.In 1892, Scott was appointed the first Keeper of the Jodrell Laboratory at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, a position he held for fourteen years until 1906, under the Directorship of the botanist William Turner Thiselton-Dyer, one of his early mentors.

2022About The Book: The book will form a valuable student manual in the field of general biology. It is clear and concise in style and is remarkable free from technical terms and mathematical formula, considering the fact that it deals largely with statistical methods. It is divided into three parts, part one includes a brief explanation of the statistical methods employed in the study of variation, a remarkably clear presentation of the difficult subject of corrected variations, and a discussion of dimorphism. The treats the efforts on organisms of external conditions, such as temperature light and moisture. About The Author : H. M. Vernon (Vernon, Horace Middleton, 1870-) Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford. From Dulwich College he proceeded to Merton College, Oxford, in 1888, and for the next five years studied chemistry and physiology. In the following few years he spent various periods doing biological research at Naples, and also during that time he did his clinical studies at St. George’s Hospital and Qualified in medicine. In 1898 he was elected a Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, and he became University Lecturer in Chemical Physiology. For the next twenty years he continued with teaching and research in physiology. In the vacation of 1915 he worked at the bench in a Birmingham shell factory. The Title 'Variation in Animals and Plants written/authored/edited by H. M. Vernon', published in the year 2022. The ISBN 9788121264778 is assigned to the Hardcover version of this title. This book has total of pp. 429 (Pages). The publisher of this title is Gyan Publishing House. This Book is in English.

2022About The Book : Those practically engaged in investigations on plants can realise the difficulties that arise from the too quick passage of the seasons. It thus frequently happened that by the time new instrumental appliances were, rendered practicable the favourable season for the plant was over, involving the postponement of the experiment for another year. In spite of these difficulties, the long series of investigations, that I then carried out gave many interesting results, which not only threw light on many obscure problems, but also led to the discovery of several important phenomena in plant physiology. Some of these results, moreover, tended to cast doubt on certain conclusions that had found universal acceptance. It has, for example, been held that there was no transmission of true excitation in Mimosa, the propagated impulse being regarded as merely hydro-mechanical. The question whether the transmitted impulse was physical or physiological could only be satisfactorily decided if the plant could itself be made to record the velocity of its impulse and the changes induced in that velocity under physiological variations. This is but one out of several ideal methods of attacking problems in the life of plants, the realisation of which would make a great advance in physiological investigation. About The Author : Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose (1858 – 1937) was a biologist, physicist, botanist and an early writer of science fiction. He pioneered the investigation of radio and microwave optics, made significant contributions to plant science, and was a major force behind the expansion of experimental science on the Indian subcontinent. IEEE named him one of the fathers of radio science. Bose is considered the father of Bengali science fiction, and also invented the crescograph, a device for measuring the growth of plants. A crater on the moon has been named in his honour. He founded Bose Institute, a premier research institute of India and also one of its oldest. Established in 1917, the institute was the first interdisciplinary research centre in Asia. He served as the Director of Bose Institute from its inception until his death.
