Plant Biology
"In my opinion this is a must-have book because it covers all the important and interesting botanically-related topics any educated person needs to know-in a single book." - David Francko, Miami University of Ohio  "This textbook is very readable, clear, organized, and informative. DNA science, ecology, and evolution are themes integrated throughout the text to help make plant science relative to everyday life." - Rebecca Zamora, South Plains College  "This book is distinguished by making more cross-subject connections and not treating most subjects in compartments. The target audience doesn't want to know about morphology or physiology. They want to know about how plants work. They also want more and different plant examples and this text delivers." - Roger de Moral, University of Washington  "The writing style is familiar and laced with analogies to relate material to everyday examples." - Robert Bell, University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point  "The specific examples given in each chapter are excellent. When maternal remains abstract or general, the student's interest is rarely caught. That was never a problem in these chapters." - Kathleen Wood, University of Mary Hardin-Baylor  "I appreciate how difficult it is to cover the volume o f information in a succinct way arid congratulate the authors for a readable and very understandable text." - Dale McNeal, University of the Pacific  "It is obvious from the writing that the authors enjoy teaching and relate to students when presenting material." - James Bidlack, University of Central Oklahoma
