The increasing importance of these essential oils as pharmaceutical and aromatherapy aid besides their traditional role in cosmetics not only as an potent ingredient but also as a fragrance donor has opened up wide opportunities for global marketing.

"India has to play a dominant role in the production and processing of essential oils. Country’s bio-diversity coupled with competent scientific force and favourable processing conditions make our country as the natural choice to become a foremost leader in aroma business in the coming years.

"It is opportune time that industry should review its strengths and weaknesses and plan a joint strategy with growers and scientific community to achieve the number one status in the world by the next 4 years.

"The book has been written for the benefit and to prove an asset and a handy reference guide in the hands of new entrepreneurs/consultants and well established industrialists."

  • A thousand thanks for promptly sending the Pali English Dictionary which I had needed urgently. The securely packed parcel arrived safely here in the South of France all the way from distant India. I am happy that this large volume is still in mint condition. 

    I know of no other Indian publisher whose books can equal the superb quality of Vedams books. Similarly, no other Indian distributor of books can excel Vedams as regards the quickness of service, the perfect packing of books and their safe delivery at overseas destinations.
