More About This Textbook

Overview

In biology, three topics are so important, so fundamental, that they must permeate every aspect of an introductory botany textbook and should be mentioned or alluded to on every page: they are evolution by natural selection, analysis of botanical phenomena, and diversity of organisms and their components.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
A colorfully inviting introductory botany textbook that stresses the ideas of evolution by natural selection, the analysis of biological phenomena and diversity, and the diversity of organisms and their components. The topics proceed from the most familiar--structure, to the less familiar--metabolism, to the least familiar to most beginning students--genetics, evolution, the diversity of organisms, and ecology.
