including the world's largest flower that generates its own heat
and more familiar plants such as bamboo, coconut and maize, all
depicted in colourful, engaging fashion. Colourful and lively
illustrations and pop-out fact boxes bring the science in this book
to life, and Powered by Plants shows us how much we can learn from
studyin the myriad magnificence of the natural world. Other
