This book illustrates the key role played by taxonomy in the
conservation and sustainable utilisation of plant biodiversity. It
is a tribute to the work of Professor Vernon Heywood who has done
so much to highlight the importance of sound scholarship, training
and collaboration for plant conservation. Divided into four parts,
the book opens with an overview of the place of taxonomy in science
and in implementing the Convention on Biological Diversity. Part 2
outlines the theoretical basis of taxonomy, how it is done and how
it contributes to measuring diversity. The third part explains how
taxonomy is used to establish conservation priorities and actions
and the concluding part illustrates taxonomy in the practice and
measurement of effective conservation action. With contributions
from taxonomists and also the users of taxonomy, the volume will
provide a balanced treatment, suitable for advanced students,
researchers and conservation professionals.
