Kashmir Kumaun and the coastal plains. The articles on the water chemistry microbes phytoplankton algal mats zooplankton macrophytes periphyton and fish are comprehensive and lucid and are meticulously edited to achieve uniformity in presentation and treatment of subject. Articles on such scantily investigated aspects as production and eutrophication have also been covered which will hopefully serve as the basis and set guidelines for further researches. The last chapter designated as Indices contains basic facts and figures concerned with the water economy of India certain limnological generalizations acclaimed the world over and an inventory of important lakes of India Pakistan Bangladesh and Sri Lanka with brief notes on their geographical position physiographical dimensions and present state of ecological investigations. It is hoped that this compilation will serve as a manual of limnological researches in India and will be useful to students researchers and planners alike. 327 pp.
