I wanted to share one secret of Book writing. The best book on Trees is written by Shri VVDAnandam " மக்கள் வாழ்வில் மரங்கள்" கங்கை பதிப்பகம் (வானதி பதிப்பகம்) 1992. This was almost a treatise and a treasure and should have won more than a Nobel prize for the wealth of information contained.

 

I wanted to share one secret of Book writing. The best book on Trees is written by Shri VVDAnandam " மக்கள் வாழ்வில் மரங்கள்" கங்கை பதிப்பகம் (வானதி பதிப்பகம்) 1992. This was almost a treatise and a treasure and should have won more than a Nobel prize for the wealth of information contained.However,poorSundararaman was the first to purchase it from the publisher 's shelf as late as in 2004. This was told tome by Shri Saravanan to whom I preached the usefulness of a tree with 50 years longevity.-12 long years to get the first buyer -- simply because the topic was of "no body's natural interest" I was very happy when subsequently,I was advised that the publisher could come out with a second edition . Hence your suggestion is based on real life situations. Thanks. Please buy this bookRs200 and present it to our tree friends,as the information given is very exhaustive. I did present this book to many., especially the chapter on பனைமரம் is written with Love.

Best wishes
