From the reviews of the second edition:
"The second edition opens with the three-dimensional aspects of wood anatomy. The cohesion-tension theory and new evidence are introduced in response to recent controversies over the mechanism of sap ascent in plants. … The book highlights fascinating areas of current research with the aim to stimulate more work in the future." (Annals of Forest Science, Issue 1, 2003)
