The natural catastrophe inflicted enormous damage to life and property in Kutch and some other districts of Gujarat, thereby plunging the entire Nation in a state of gloom. The Geological Survey of India, the nodal agency for conducting earthquake studies in the country, took up the multifaceted investigations of the event on war footing. Immediately after getting the news of the earthquake, a number of teams of geoscientists were mobilised, who converged to the epicentral tract in Kutch from different places in order to carry out the macroseismic surveys and aftershock monitoring. In addition, separate teams of officers spread out to other parts of the country to constrain the lower intensity isoseismals. Thus, the Kutch Earthquake investigation has become one of the biggest joint exercises by the Department in its 150 years of glorious past, involving a force of 74 scientists from different disciplines and Regions.Bringing out this Special Publication on Kutch Earthquake has taken nearly two years of tireless and dedicated efforts. It is a valuable collection of rare and authentic database that draws inferences and conclusions on various aspects of the phenomenon. This work would prove to be of immense utility for the earth science community and would serve as a guide for future earthquake studies. 282 pp. …

From the introduction: "Ethnobotany of Totopara" is a descriptive ethnomedicinal account of a very small Mongoloid tribe known as "Toto". The Totos are living in Totopara which is situated in the extreme north-east part of Jalpaiguri district in West Bengal. The authors took extensive field studies during 1995 to 1997 at Totopara and the present account is the outcome of those field studies. Until a few years ago, the Totos were unknown to the outside world. They used to hold their indigenous culture. Now-a-days some of these tribal people have undergone minor changes in their livelihood and culture. In this present account, some plants used in medicine and other purposes by this tribal community, have been discussed which may help the readers to get an idea about the plant species used by this tribal community to prevent and cure their illness. Moreover, the studies unfolded the similarities of usages of plant species between the.…
