Features

A. The text has been illustrated with numerous simple figures and explanatory diagrams drawn by the author himself, in most cases directly from objects which are typical and easily available. The figures and diagrams have been drawn with a view to provide correct and easy appreciation.
B. An attempt has been made to familiarize the students with the meanings of Latin and Greek prefixes and suffixes, and to trace the technical and scientific terms to their respective Latin and Greek roots. This will enable the students to master the subject of terminology more easily.
C. In many cases, more than one example has been given to illustrate a particular form or feature. A large number of English and vernacular names have been introduced to suit the convenience of students. Latin names have been followed by vernacular or English equivalents, or often by both.
