I've known many biology textbooks, but this has the nicest and best photos you could ever find. Though this book mainly aims for non-majors, I, a botany graduate student, still find it very useful and informative. Highly recommend this for people who want to know about general plant biology, but have been intimidated by heavy, thick textbooks.

Well written - a very clear and good account of plant biology and the various concepts involved. Very good illustrations. I'm pleased to say that the chemistry aspect of plant biology is not as overwhelming (or as heavily emphasized) as it can be in some books, that are of a comparable educational level.

OK, so I may be a little biased, but I took Linda Graham's general botany class last year, in which this book is followed to the letter. Although I didn't read the book thoroughly, Professor Graham's lectures covered everything in it. I enjoyed learning the material in this book, as is covers a wide spectrum of things about plants. Although the last couple of chapters (dealing with conservation of resources, etc.) were a bit tedious at times (since it's all stuff that has been pounded into our heads for years), the rest of the book is excellent. A nice blend of pictures, examples, and explanations.

Great product. In wonderful condition. I got it in a very timely manner, faster than I expected. I will definitely be on the lookout for future products. Thanks...

This book is a great learning tool for my Botany class and I received it in great condition

Pretty fast shipping. The product meets the description that was given at time of purchase. Will re-use this Amazon for sure.

The book is in good shape. Just don't trust on standard shipping; it took more than three weeks for the book to get here. I chose expedited for the other books I bought and they arrived on time.

The savings I get on this book saved my life!...financially at least. The description was accurate and the ship time was good.
