The thirteenth edition, while retaining the same fundamentals and lucid writing style, reflects the current advances and latest curriculum offered in Indian universities. This new edition all the chapters have been extensively revised and also includes a summary at the end of every chapter and review questions for the benefit of the students. All the line illustrations have been modified and poor photographs have been replaced with improved ones for the better understanding of the subject.
