The common flowering plant of Western India by Mozelle Issacs is a unique of its kind. This book is meant to help to identify the common plants, which are either out of print or too expensive, and therefore not easily accessible to those who are in need of it. The members of vegetable kingdom are numerous and it is impossible to study them without classifying. There are two systems of classification. (1) The artificial system. (2) The natural system. The keynote to classification lies in conception of species and genus. Classification determines naming of plants. The same plant has often been described under different names or different plants been designated by the same name, by different botanists, it is necessary, in order to avoid confusion, to add the name of the botanist who is the authority for it. This book is highly useful to the students of Botany particularly dealing in flowering plants of Western India.
