Originally published in 1930, this textbook was principally designed for first-year medical students, but was also intended to have a wide utilisation by students in cognate biological fields. The book covers a wide range of subjects from 'Crystalloids and colloids' to 'The plant cell' to 'The flower and the seed', providing a holistic introduction and overview of botany for the beginner. Notably, the book follows an increasing line of thought in the emphasis it places upon the physiology and physico-chemical background of plant life and the biological significance of botany. Multiple detailed diagrams are included throughout to support the text. This book will be of great value to researchers and scholars of botany, as well as a valuable resource within the broader community of biology.
