Book excerpt: Born in the mid 18th century, William Roxburgh was brought up in the centre of the Edinburgh Enlightenment, with all the patronage an intellectual curiosity that this entailed. After joining the East India Company as an Assistant Surgeon on one of their ships, he joined the staff of the General hospital at Madras. Soon he was Company Naturalist, describing many species for the first time which inspired some beautiful watercolour drawings by Indian artists, copies of which were sent to Sir Joseph Banks at Kew. Arising from his scientific work, he was appointed the first paid Superintendent of the Calcutta Botanic Garden in 1793, where he continued his previous experimental work as well as looking into the introduction of a wide range of crops. Always looking for ways to improve the lot of native workers, to reduce the impact of frequent famines, he suggested labour-intensive methods by developing local skills and introducing suitable plants could be used for food. With important work also on the botany of the Cape of Good House as well as St Helena, and significant contributions to the fields of meteorology, zoology and geology, Roxburgh's obituaries referred to him as the 'greatest botanist since Linnaeus.' This is the first full biography of 'The Founding Father of Indian Botany.' Beautifully illustrated throughout with archival material, botanical drawings and photographs, some published here for the first time, this joint publication with the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh is a must for historians, botanist and general readers alike.

Book excerpt: This book brings together striking botanical art of Indian origin spanning a period of 300 years, focussing on the 18th and 19th centuries. Drawn mostly from original works held in the collections of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, some of the paintings have never been published before. They showcase the richness and variety of art commissioned from talented, mostly unknown, Indian artists who made a substantial contribution to the documentation of the flora of the Indian subcontinent. A foreword written by Sita Reddy places the collections in contemporary context. The book concludes with works from a new generation of botanical artists in India, who excite interest today.

Download or read book First Book of Indian Botany Classic Reprint written by Daniel Oliver and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Book of Indian Botany This little book is, in substance, my Lessons in Elementary Botany adapted for use in India. But in preparing it, I have had in view the want, often felt, of some handy re'sume of Indian Botany, which might be serviceable not only to residents in India, but also to any one about to proceed thither, desirous of getting some preliminary idea of the Botany of that country. I might have entitled the book Illustrations of Indian Natural Orders of Plants; but as the same chapters, with necessary alterations, on the Elements of Structural and Physiological Botany are prefixed to the systematic part which I originally drew up for my previous work, the whole thing seems to me tolerably suited to serve as a First Book of Indian Botany.
