"Illustrated with over 130 detailed line drawings and twelve pages of colour plates, this book introduces the reader to the arrangement of flowers on plants, reproduction, plant structure and function, and the way plants are grouped and named. Methods for dissecting flowers and observing their structure for identification purposes are clearly described. A comprehensive glossary and up-to-date bibliography provide a welcome guide to further information."--Jacket.
