For nearly six centuries, scientists have been document ing the
plants and fungi of the world through herbaria. The wealth of
specimens available today, carefully pre served through the
centuries, is a unique source of data that not only helps
scientists understand how the world's vegetation has changed over
time, but also allows them to predict how it will change in the
future. In Herbarium, Barbara M. Thiers shares the fascinat ing
history of herbaria and the important role they play in our modern
world. Herbarium is heavily illustrated with photographs and unique
historical material from the collection at the New York Botanical
Garden. It is a must-read for passionate plant fans and
conservationists.
