N2  - In the present edition of the book, the subject matter has been thoroughly revised and enlarged not only to cover the latest syllabi of the various Indian Universities, but a lot of attention has been paid keeping in view the requirements of the students, appearing in different national and state level competitive examinations, e.g., NET/JRF, GATE, etc. Further, a sufficient number of problems (solved and unsolved) and objective type questions have been added so that the aspiring students may have a good practice and develop a good insight in the subject. With these improvements, the present form of the book is expected relatively more useful for the student community
