Abstract
THE late Dr. Daydon Jackson was engaged in the revision of the proofs of this book in its fourth edition at the time of his death. His last contribution to the science that he loved will be of permanent value, and it is to be hoped that in future years some other botanist will continue this valuable work, and that the “Glossary of Botanic Terms” may long be available to smooth the path of the reader who would grapple with the terminology of a very descriptive science.
A Glossary of Botanic Terms: with their Derivation and Accent.
By Dr. Benjamin Daydon Jackson. Fourth edition, revised and enlarged. Pp. xii + 481. (London: Gerald Duckworth and Co., Ltd.; Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott Co., 1928.) 15s. net.
