Books

Five research monographs have been published in the series History of Pharmacy in India and Related Aspects:

Volume 1: Pharmacopoeias and Formularies (1994) Harkishan Singh

The book provides a documented account of sesquicentury of the Indian pharmacopoeial and formulary history. Several unknown or forgotten compendia have been rediscovered and their existence brought to surface. The information gleaned from official publications, contemporary periodicals, and government archives has been coordinated and collated to prepare this treatise.

ISBN 81-85731-30-6. Pages xvi+160, size 12x20cm

Volume 2: Pharmaceutical Education (1998) Harkishan Singh

The Pharmaceutical Education portrays a composite picture of the evolution and contemporary scenario of the whole gamut of pharmaceutical instructions and related aspects. The treatise dilates upon the historical perspectives of different items and issues pertaining to pharmaceutical education. The writing on each topic is supported with appropriate documentary evidences.

ISBN 81-85731-09-8. Pages xvi+204, size 12x20cm.

Volume 3: Pharmaceutical Practice (2002) Harkishan Singh

Starting with the history of introduction of the western medical system in India, the developments having bearing on pharmacy practice have been carefully investigated and the findings put in a readable form in the Pharmacy Practice. The narrative presented projects the state of pharmacy practice during colonial period and its progress since decolonization. The writing is fully documented and appropriately illustrated.

ISBN 81-85731-31-4. Pages xiv+226, size 12x20cm.

Volume 4: Builders and Awareness Creators of Modern Pharmacy 1: Mahadeva Lal Schroff and the Making of Modern Pharmacy (2005) Harkishan Singh

This research monograph is essentially a professional biography of Professor M. L. Schroff, also covering his life in general and personality characteristics. No facet of pharmacy escaped his attention. It is amazing that how an orphaned boy through his courage and confidence struggled to shape his own career, and accepted a challenge of building pharmacy for which he had not been trained or groomed. He became an icon and a legend in his lifetime. In the historical perspective Schroff emerges as the maker of modern pharmacy in India.

ISBN 81-85731-39-X. Pages xiv+216, size 12x20cm

Volume 5: Builders and Awareness Creators of Modern Pharmacy 2 (2008) Harkishan Singh

During the colonial rule the newly introduced health care system developed reasonably well but regrettably its pharmaceutical component stood neglected. It needed a long drawn out struggle to improve its lot. In this tome, second volumes on the builders and awareness creators of modern pharmacy, the lives and contribution of a dozen of forebears are profiled.
