Each Block consists of a number of Units (lessons). Normally, all the Units covered in one Block have a thematic unity. The first page of each Block indicates the contents of each Block i.e., the number and titles of the Units covered in that Block. This is followed by a brief introduction to the Block. This Block introduction explains the total coverage of the Block as a whole as well as the coverage of each Unit in that Block. Each Unit is structured to facilitate self study for you. The section on Objectives briefly states what we expect you to attain when you have completed the Unit. In Introduction, there is an attempt to forge a link with the topics of the previous Units and the topic to be covered in the present Unit. This is followed by the main body of the Unit, which is divided into various sections and subsections. In the main body there are a few self-check exercises under the caption Self Assessment Question. Enough space is given for you to write your answers to the questions set in the self-check exercises.
