Book Reviews of Plant Identification Terminology: An Illustrated Glossary
Book Review: Beautiful
Summary: 5 Stars
This small book is beautiful. The illustrations are repeated under different terms to make the use of the book a joy, instead of tedious. The drawings themselves are concise and all in black and white, which seems to give the overall book a neat (unified) appearance. I am thrilled with this book, as an artist, newly focusing on Botanical Art. I also recommend for the sheer beauty of the book: New Flowering: 1000 Years of Botanical Art
Summary of Plant Identification Terminology: An Illustrated Glossary
Plant identification employs an extensive and complex terminology. Professional botanists often need several years in the field to master this terminology, and it presents a daunting obstacle to the student of botany.The meaning of most botanical terms, however, is immediately apparent when an illustration is available. That is the purpose of this volume. Plant Identification Terminology provides over nineteen hundred clear illustrations of terms used in plant identification keys and descriptions. It also includes definitions for more than twenty-seven hundred taxonomic terms.
