Abstract
THE “Text-book of Botany” issued from the famous institute at Bonn has met with such favour on the part of teachers and students, that it is a matter of surprise that the translation of it into English should have been so long deferred. However it is certain to be extensively used, as the subject is handled from a comprehensive standpoint, and the authors have succeeded in hitting the happy mean between a too elementary and a too advanced treatment.
A Text-book of Botany.
By Dr. E. Strasburger Dr. Fritz Noll Dr. H. Schenck Dr. A.F.W. Schimper; translated from the German by H. C. Porter, Ph.D. With 594 illustrations, in part coloured. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1898.)
