The Botanical World : Art Study Workbook

A second edition of the wonderfully organized, designed, and conceived introductory text making botany a poetic and relevant study. Northington and Schneider combine their 40 years teaching experience to create a botanical discussion that begins with topics most familiar to students such as a general overview of plant growth, working their way into molecules, DNA, roots, stems, plant-soil-water relationships, reproduction, evolution, and the intricate relationship between humans and plants. These discussions are liberally illustrated with color designs, photographs, diagrams, summaries, and topic highlights. Additionally, a workbook accompanies the volume supplying a study guide and art notebook corresponding to each chapter and meeting students' visual and verbal learning abilities. An alternate ISBN: 29211-8. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
