Dear Mr. Alok, I assume you may not get more books of botany in Delhi. Come to dehradun, you will get more options! Ask me why? BISEN SINGH MAHENDRA PAL SINGH and NATRAJ publishers, who publish these books are here. Though I am not sure about the other book you inquired about, but it was there with PCCF of Uttarakhand. His personal copy. I can check if I am wrong, and if I am right then I can get it xeroxed for you. Just in case, do let me know on pankajsah...@rediffmail.com or pan...@wii.gov.in Pankaj
