Under the changing world scenario new global mindset has emerged in the form of fast information and communication, DNA analytic modules, gene mapping with genomic information being reassessed and reconstituted in electronic chips. A new mechanism of ultra sensitive equipments and techniques have emerged to counteract new emerging diseases. A new global system of research has to cope up with these new global challenges. In the words of Prof. Charlottee Krik Baer, director of National Board on Agriculture and Natural Resources, the veterinary Research has to be remandated for protecting public health besides animals health. Thus the wise postulation of Prof. Rudold Virchow (1821-1902) have come true a century after his death. He postulated that “All Animal Species including Homo Spines are related and that Knowledge gained in one species benefits all the others. This leads to a new concept” “one medicine, one approach”. We in bringing this book fulfill his cherished vision with an addition of spiritualistic sciences and its use in future. We add to his phrase all biological life or the holistic life has a common origin (Holly Quran & other Holy Books, the Bible, Gita etc. refers), thus a new vision “One life One Cure”. This integrated human-animals-plant and the environment as one entity. The whole book has been arranged in two broad sections. 1. Animal Biotechnology 2. Agriculture Scenario & Environment.

The first section consists of 28 chapters including last chapter on references cited. The book’s initiates with abstract which reflect brief topics and issues discussed in the chapter. Every chapter is a complete entity in itself. One is not bound to read the book in a systemic order. He is free to choose any chapter or even a subheading under a chapter to refresh his knowledge. Every attempt has been made to present latest and futurist view of animal-agriculture biotechnology.

Section second on Agriculture and Allied policies has been described briefly in chapters 29-37, topics like Agriculture Productivity, Agro-econ-concerns, Agribusiness, Agriclinics, Indigenous-agro-techniques, Horticulture and a vivid new reforms on Extension Education.
