This book critically reviews advances in our understanding of the
biology of vascular epiphytes since Andreas Schimper's 1888 seminal
work. It addresses all aspects of their biology, from anatomy and
physiology to ecology and evolution, in the context of general
biological principles. By comparing epiphytes with non-epiphytes
throughout, it offers a valuable resource for researchers in plant
sciences and related disciplines. A particular strength is the
identification of research areas that have not received the
attention they deserve, with conservation being a case in point.
Scientists have tended to study pristine systems, but global
developments call for information on epiphytes in human-disturbed
systems and the response of epiphytes to global climate change.
