There is a dearth of good books for preparation of ICAR-NET, UGC-NET and SLET/SET exams. Hence, this book, a work worth, to say the least. It is a humble attempt to fulfill the requirements of students, appearing for ICAR-NET, UGC –NET and SLET/SET examinations. After going through syllabus, almost all topics are being covered in this book, Foods and Nutrition, Human Development and Family Studies, Textile and Apparel Designing, Home Science Extension and Community Management and Family Resource Management as the major subjects with many subtopics have been covered. This book is the extract of more books and scientific literatures At last I can say that this book would be highly helpful to those students preparing for ICAR-NET, ICAR-JRF, ARS exam, UGC –NET, SLET/SET, M.Sc. (Home Science) entrance, Ph.D. (Home Science) entrance/PET and different other exams related to Home Science faculty. The undersigned is confident enough that this book would prove to be beneficial for all its readers. - Dr. D. T. Khogare
