Book Description
Foreword

The late Dr. Arvind Raddi has penned an extensive account of Indian Forestry encompassing various aspects like biodiversity, ecotourism, plantations, village ecodevelopment, and many more. Dr. Raddi begins with a description of the evolution of life on earth. He gives a detailed account of forest management in ancient, medieval and British Colonial India. He devotes a major portion of the book to the Indian Forest Department of today. The SWOT analysis of the Forest Department is based on his personal experiences as head of the Maharashtra Forest Department, as well as the experiences of his large circle of friends and colleagues.

Dr. Raddi has given a new dimension to the concept of Village Ecodevelopment. He has shown a way to save biotic stress on valuable forests by fulfilling needs of villagers regarding fuel, fodder and timber within the village itself. His concept is essentially based on the Gandhian principle of self-reliant villages. If the programmes suggested by him were to be implemented, the villages would regain their lost riches. This may require substantial funds, but with the commencement of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Programme, it should not be difficult now.

The world now faces several challenges including global warming and climate change. To meet these challenges, it is necessary to have the appropriate methodology in place. I am sure that suggestions made by Dr. Raddi will considerably benefit both India and the world at large, in the management of forest affairs. It is my sincere wish that this book reaches the hands of interested people. I would like to congratulate Dr. Raddi for his significant contribution. If not by statues, Dr. Raddi will be remembered through this monumental work.
