The new edition offers a wealth of new information, especially in the areas of taxonomy, genomics, plant hormones, and Arabidopsis research.
Reviews:
I originally bought this text as a supplement for a Botany course that failed to take last semester. Even though the class didn’t take, I kept the book planning to read over sections when I had the chance to prepare for graduate school. I started reading chapter 1 on a Monday and finished reading the book that Friday. It is an excellently written text that I would recommend for anyone with a solid background in biology and an interest in botany to read. It honestly was hard to put down. – Javamon (Amazon review)
This book is great for gardeners like me who want to learn more about plants and how they work. It has a lot of graphs, pictures and charts to explain ideas and definitions. It is a text book, and as such is really big and very heavy. Not something to carry out in the field, that’s for sure,but a great reference book.– Jen (Amazon review)
