continuing education student,
By
This review is from: Introductory Plant Biology (Hardcover)
Think the book is a good text book for introductory botany--however sometimes the authors include so much detail (i.e. in the cell biology chapters) that it obstructs understanding--no one in the class was able to understand these chapters (and we have a pretty diverse and capable group). I really like the effort to utilize the web, but believe much more content could be part of this beginning effort. Also, the citations to web sites are already out of date with web pages no longer working etc. It would be easy to keep this updated ON THE WEB i would think. Great illustrations in the text.

An Excellent Initial Botany Course Text,
By Perpetual Student "teacher:student" (La Crosse, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Introductory Plant Biology (Hardcover)
I find this text to be an excellent resource for a college student who is beginning to study botany. While the first three chapters provide an excellent review of entry-level biology concepts, the remaining chapters review and enhance botany understanding. The text provides excellent graphical representations and is easy, yet interesting, to read. I recommend both this text and the lab manual. Professor Stern had reviewers who were obviously proficient in both content area and in publishing in the english language. Kudos!
