The pathetic state of our democratic institutions reflects the depth of degradation of political values of the country. Politics today is devoid of moral values, principles, ideologies, commitment.

Good governance is not the issue but how to remain in power has become the serious concern. The loss of faith of people in the existing political system of country put various questions, if this is the present situation then what would be the future of Indian democracy.

In this context this volume has touched this aspect also by providing the Gandhian alternative (less)

Index to selected key-words in titles of references. From the preface: "The word Ethnobotany was coined about 100 years ago, but it became more widely known only during last five decades.

The word refers to the total natural relationship between man and plant life. "Due to comparatively late emphasis on this discipline, books, and research papers under the title Ethnobotany have been rather few till the seventies of the last century.

Even till the eighties, there were perhaps not more than a dozen books published in the whole world with the title of Ethnobotany. Similarly, considering the explosive rate at which the scientific journals and other literature has been generated during the last century, periodicals devoted to, or interested in ethnobotany were few till two decades ago.
