Index. "In this volume the author has recorded the results of his minute observations of a vast variety of vertebrates, classed as mammals -- the carefree denizens of the dense forests and woodlands which clothed the hills, the plains and the mountains of India nearly a century ago.

Mammals are warm-blooded, viviparous animals and are distinguished from birds as well as from other vertebrated animals, by the possession of mammary glands, secreting a nutritious fluid called milk for the nourishment of their young and terminating outwardly in all (except one or two) by teats. They are also distinguished by a covering of hair, entire or partial.

Mammals require to be placed first because they enjoy the most numerous faculties, the most delicate sensations, the most varied powers of motion. In mammals the organs (less)

"Nanotechnology can be defined as the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale. The technology has the potential to cast a great effect on almost every industry and section of society.

It is a highly multidisciplinary field, drawing from fields such as applied physics, materials science, colloidal science, device physics, supramolecular chemistry, and even mechanical and electrical engineering. Nanotechnology can be seen as an extension of existing sciences into the nanoscale, or as a recasting of existing sciences using a newer, more modern term.

This book introduces the reader to the world of nanotechnology by giving them in-depth details of different (less)
