Wonderful (except for the website),

This review is from: Introduction to Botany (Hardcover)
This book is fantastic--very clear, concise, overall well-written. I have absolutely no background in botany but feel very satisfied and confident with what I've learned from this book. The illustrations are especially well done and are useful in understanding the nuts (no pun intended!) and bolts of plant structures and biological processes.
I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the website is often not functional or is down.

This review is from: Introduction to Botany (Hardcover)
I ordered this product for one of my college classes. My college book store marked it up over a hundred dollars used. I ordered this early in the morning on a business day and by afternoon I got a shipment notification. The product came to my house in about 3 business days. The book came with the online code as well, so it was like new!
