working with bamboo. Each time such an ideaΒ made, I used to review the savvy
expressions of a renowned teacher for his talks. At whatever point forced to compose a
book in view of his splendid talks, he used to decline, saying: “Assuming I present my talks,
my understudies will hear likewise my vulnerabilities, my questions, the restrictions of science; however on the off chance that I
were to get them on paper, then, at that point, these are precisely exact thing would become undetectable.”
Then, at that point, for what reason did I compose this book now? There were a few extremely enticing contentions

from specific quarters for composing it. One was that the experiences and information on
bamboo gathered during my 25 years of exploration, direction of activities and visits to
bamboo-developing nations all around the world ought notΒ permitted to go unrecorded.
One more was that different regions – wood, for instance – too began along these lines with
one writer composing a book while the area was still sufficiently little to be caught by the
endeavors of one. At long last, I felt that some data contained in my huge assortment
of dim writing ought to be uncovered to all intrigued analysts.
This book has its starting point in an email I got in December 1996 from the Hawaii
Section of the American Bamboo Society, with a challenge to introduce a progression of talks
on all parts of bamboo. A trade of thoughts completely finished a few messages about
the extent of the talks, the subjects to covered and an opportunity to be spent on each. It
was concluded that an accentuation ought to be laid on bamboo’s mechanical properties, joints
also, structures. I spent a significant piece of January-June 1997 planning address
materials and diagramming the course.
