How science can directly affect one's garden,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Science and the Garden: The Scientific Basis of Horticultural Practice (Paperback)
Collaboratively compiled and edited by David S. Ingram (Master, St. Catherine's College, University of Cambridge, UK), Daphne Vince-Prue (Retired Lecturer, University of Reading and the first to develop the potted Chrysanthemum), and Peter J. Gregory (University of Reading), Science And The Garden: The Scientific Basis Of Horticultural Practice is an advanced resource of chemical, biological, and highly practical information about how science can directly affect one's garden. Individual chapters deal with the full range of relative issues including soil fertility, taxonomy, seasons and weather, the scientific repercussions of gardening in a greenhouse environment, and more. Familiarity with basic chemistry and other branches of agriculture-related science is very helpful, but not absolutely required for the non-specialist general reader to get the most out of Science And The Garden, one of the most educational and informative introductions to horticultural practices available today.
