For anyone who is interested in learning more about all those botanical terms used in plant manuals, then this is the book for you. The book consists of over 2,000 high quality photos describing the various parts of a plant. The first 58 pages describe different roots systems, stem types, leaf shapes, flower forms and fruit shapes. While the majority of the book describes the major features that separate out the various plant families found across the world. Each plant family includes 4 to 20 colour photos, clearly indicating various structures relating to that family.
One drawback to this book is that the glossary at the back does not provide a page reference for where it is described in the main body of the book.
I would recommend this publication for anyone interested in plant anatomy!

I have struggled to learn some botany since retiring in 2004. I find this book uniquely helpful in connecting botanical descriptions with the corresponding aspects of the plants being described. The book has excellent photos of just the right features of the plants, and it has the right level of explanation.

An excellent supplemental reference to other technical plant identification works. Pictures are crisp and clear. With this book one is able to review key diagnosic characteristics used for all plant families and then compare details with excellent pictures from each family.
