Preface

I

am glad to present this book, especially designed to serve the needs of

the students. The book has been written keeping in mind the general weakness

in understanding the fundamental concepts of the topics. The book is selfexplanatory and adopts the ¡°Teach Yourself¡± style. It is based on questionanswer pattern. The language of book is quite easy and understandable based

on scientific approach.

Any further improvement in the contents of the book by making corrections,

omission and inclusion is keen to be achieved based on suggestions from the

readers for which the author shall be obliged.

I acknowledge special thanks to Mr. Rajeev Biyani, Chairman & Dr. Sanjay

Biyani, Director (Acad.) Biyani Group of Colleges, who are the backbones and

main concept provider and also have been constant source of motivation

throughout this Endeavour. They played an active role in coordinating the various

stages of this Endeavour and spearheaded the publishing work.

I look forward to receiving valuable suggestions from professors of various

educational institutions, other faculty members and students for improvement of

the quality of the book. The reader may feel free to send in their comments and

suggestions to the under mentioned address.
