The author of this book with her adequate teaching experience, enough exposure to the field of pharmaceutics and special fascination towards this branch of science has tried to minimise the scarcity of English text books on Baishajya Kalpana.The author has put sufficient efforts to cover all the chapters recommended for II year B.A.M.S students. Where ever the author has considered it possible to introduce a parellel knowledge of modern pharmaceutics, one may find references to the same. This is to facilitate the students to acquaint themselves with the subject from Ayurveda and modern point of view.
