  - Useful introductory book in BotanyOne of the most useful book in botany to beginners. The author one of the most botanist(and plant anatomist)in recent time. Rating: - The review by Tony Rpince was of the purchase, not the textSorry Tony, sounds like you got burnt by a seller. Botany by Mauseth is a great introductory text - not a note book. Rating: - AwesomeThsi book was a perfect bookb for someone who wants to know the straight facts about Botany. For example, a college student might enjoy useing this book because it is packed with so much information. Rating: - Excellent Introduction to BotanyThis book is a must for anyone seriously interested in learning about plants and their relation to the other living kingdoms. It is richly illustrated and covers material clearly and in-depth. I have used the first edition for over eight years as 1) a good read and 2) a reference that continues to inform me as a serious gardener as well as an educated layman. The book emphasizes the evolutionary adaptative aspects of plants to their environment. Starting from the basics of chemistry, it covers plant anatomy, physiology, genetics, and taxonomy. It is a wonderful resource. Rating:  - U.C. StudentThis was our text for Bis. 1C (Winter 98) at U.C. Davis. The book was well illustrated, but was far too in-depth for an intro course. I found lecture notes more useful. |
