Must Be A Garden Chemist,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Chemistry in the Garden (Issues in Environmental Scienc) (Paperback)
For such a slim volume, it is positively encyclopedic in some respects. The book is dense with diagrams and information, regarding chemicals in a variety of plants, formulae, and functions. A good beginning (but only that) for those looking for applications of chemistry / chemical compounds. It will give you ideas to for further research - for the book is weak on reactions, biosyntheses and such. None-the-less it does make for interesting reading due to its scope ... e.g.) chemical responsible for the odor of freshly cut grass, to pigments and much more). It is dense - but I've really enjoyed it.
