First published in 1932, this small volume by A. C. Seward was
intended to present an overview of plant-life in a way which could
be understood by readers with little or no knowledge of botany or
other branches of natural science. By describing in non-technical
terms what plants are and how they work, Seward is able to show the
wealth of interest the subject offers, whilst also highlighting the
fundamental principles of biology and the usefulness of scientific
research. Including a number of illustrations, a glossary, and a
guide to common equivalents of scientific measurements, this book
will be of value to anyone interested in popular science from the
early twentieth century.
