Practical Botany

Abstract

THE production of a series of important works in rapid succession has pointed out Prof. Strasburger as one of the most prominent figures among botanists of the present century. It will be readily seen from the character of his researches, which deal for the most part with questions of minute structure and development, that he combines unusual power of close oobservation with originality of treatment and wide knowledge of methods. These qualities, together with a clear style of exposition, are those most: needful for the production of a handbook for the guidance of students in the botanical laboratory; and the result does not disappoint the expectations of those who have been awaiting the appearance of Prof. Strasburger's volume.

Das botanische Practicum.

Von Dr. Eduard Strasburger. (Jena: Gustav Fischer, 1884.)
