From the foreword: "The Plant wealth, a part of which is portrayed in this publication, it is hoped, will certainly be of much use for the islanders as a source of food, shelter and medicine. While \'A Forest Flora of Andaman Islands\' published by Parkinson (1923) had dealt with the plants of Andaman Islands, the present volume has been devoted to Nicobar Islands also besides Andaman Islands so that the plant resources are utilised on sustainable basis. This endeavour is likely to supplement our efforts in conserving the rare and endangered insular species especially in the protected areas, thus enabling us to pass over this heritage to the posterity."
