This book takes a new look as to how plants grow ... In this outstanding compilation of enlightened, insightful and critical thinking the author steers the reader skilfully through the hormonal, protein and RNA signalling involved ... The detailed referencing and the clear and colourful illustrations greatly help the reader to understand the ever increasing complexity of the structural and molecular genetic aspects of plant growth and development. -- Edward C Cocking FRS, University of Nottingham, UK
The book is recommended for beginners as well as experienced research workers in the field of plant development and will surely be useful for plant science teachers. It not only provides an excellent survey of current knowledge of plant patterning but also mentions many events and persons, making the text a readable, unique and fascinating piece of work. --Folia Geobot.
