Vorträge über botanische Stammesgeschichte, gehalten an der Reichsuniversität zu Leiden: Ein Lehrbuch der Pflanzensystematik

Abstract

LIKE the previous volumes of this important work, the one (third) recently issued is of great value. As a storehouse of information gathered from the most varied sources, it arouses wonder at the wide field from which it has been gleaned; while it is not less marked by the clearness with which the information is conveyed to the reader and the freedom from verbiage, and by the stimulating and suggestive discussions of general questions and on subjects of special interest or difficulty. These are dispersed through the volume, where they emerge in relation to the various subjects; and they witness to the fairness with which the views expressed by other botanists are stated, and to the single aim of the author to set forth the conclusions that the evidence will warrant.
