Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides readers with a glossary of essential terms used to describe the language of botany, compiling the terminology used in this exacting science to provide insight into plant life. Since the development of Carl Linnaeus' foundational work, "Philosophia Botanica", published in 1751, botanists have relied on a precise and universal language to discuss their subject. The author, a dedicated botanist and scholar, has brought together terms from Linnaeus' original text as well as those that have been added over time and now appear in modern-day texts. The book is not meant to be a substitute for studying botany; rather, it is a companion text, providing definitions and etymologies for the terms readers will encounter as they study this complex but fascinating subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332922765_0
