Irrigation Engineering (Including Hydrology)
The First Edition of this treatise on Irrigation Engineering duly subsidised by national Book trust,Government of India,published in 1984.was highly acclaimed by the engineering teachers and taughts and its revised edition appeared in 1990.The dynamism inherent in the subject necessitated drastic changes in the text,prompted by theoverwhelming response of irrigation and agriculture engineering students and practising engineers in the country and abroad duly patronised by the publications,Shri Ravindra Kumar Gupta,Managing Director,S.Chand & Company Ltd.,New Delhi

Evolution and Speciation in Animals
This book represents the first attempt to quantify environmental factors and life history traits that accelerate or decelerate species diversity in animals. About 15%, 8% and 77% of species are distributed in marine (70% of earth’s surface), freshwater (terra firma fosters more diversity. The harsh hadal, desert and elevated montane habitats restrict diversity to 0.5-4.2%. Costing more time and energy, osmotrophic and suspension modes of food acquisition limit diversity to Selfing hermaphrodites (0.9%), parthenogens ( Incidence of heterogamety is four-times more in males than in females. Hence, evolution is more a male-driven process. Egg size is determined by environmental factors, but le...
Conservation Strategies Used to Maintain the Biodiversity
Conservation Strategies Used to Maintain the Biodiversity, this book talks about the conservation strategies used to maintain biodiversity at the genetic, species, and ecosystem levels. It is a small initiative to create awareness in society of the causes of biodiversity loss and the cautions and strategies required. Many strategies are primarily highlighted in this book, including tree plantation, aesthetic value, ex-situ, and in-situ conservation, manufacturing of eco-friendly products, the role of sacred groves in biodiversity conservation, control of invasive species, and sustainable utilization of environmental resources.
Ichthyology Handbook
In recent years, progress in fish biology has advanced at an unprecedented rate and has led to many breakthroughs in the field. This book provides a wealth of information on the strategies that fish adopt with respect to waters with markedly different physical and chemical characteristics. It shows how their physiology, behaviour and lifestyles are adapted to exploit particular niches and gives comprehensive insight into fish life under extreme conditions. The readers are introduced to the ways in which fish exemplify many phenomena of general biological interest - the existence of competitors, chaos, and predator-prey interaction. Fish pathology as well as the components of the immune system are addressed. In this book, original and at times controversial views are presented, areas which have so far received inadequate attention are highlighted and avenues for further research are suggested.
