The essential text in Plant Anatomy at the graduate level! Ray F. Evert, student of the late Katherine Esau, world authority in the field of her generation, has carried on and updated her heritage to include all latest developments and insights in the relationships of structure and function in botany at the microscopic level. Though the state-of-the-art sections are exclusively in black-and-white, the quality of print and high-glossy paper crisply show the essentials of what one needs to become aware of when viewing and interpreting even minute details ... and I'm glad to see that the price of the book has come down to a level affordable by our students.
