About this book

This famous book on botany was published for the first time in 1894 by Eduard Strasburger and his co-workers. The present edition is based on a translation of the 36th edition of the German "Strasburger" and contains additional contributions by renowned experts in the field. The “Strasburger” comprises a highly appealing and holistic approach to the structure, the systematics and evolution, the functioning, and ecology of plants. The book covers 14 chapters bundled into four main sections: (i) Molecular and morphological structure of plants and cells (ii) Physiology and metabolism (iii) Evolution and systematics of plants (iv) Ecology

Reviews

From the book reviews:

“The book is updated with recent advances in research. Topical insights are also provided. This helps motivate students to develop more interest and allows the ease of learning and understanding the subject. A guide for undergraduate students of life sciences and worthy book for those specialising in plant sciences. An important book for students aspiring to excel in competitive exams related to plant sciences.” (Melvina D’souza and Kevin D. Hyde, Fungal Diversity, December, 2014)
