The original suggestion to organize a symposium about the classi
fication and evolution of the Flowering Plants was made at, the
International Botanical Congress at Leningrad in 1975, and the idea
was so well accepted by several colleagues that plans for such a
symposium quickly took shape. An organizing committee consisting of
Professor H. MERXMULLER, Miinchen, Professor V. H. HEYWOOD,
Reading, and Professor K. KUBITZKI, Hamburg, was set up. The
conference took place on 7-12 September 197tl in the Institut fiir
Allgemeine Botanik of the University of Hamburg under the auspices
of the International Association for Plant Taxonomy and was at
tended by 80 participants from 14 countries. There have been
several meetings in recent years which have dealt with the origin
and evolution of the Flowering Plants so that it might be
questioned whether yet another symposium dealing with more or less
the same subject were really "justified. As the reader will see
from the contents of the book, this symposium differed from similar
ones held recently in two respects: 1. Emphasis was given to
methodological aspects of the classification of higher taxa, and 2.
much classificatory and evolutionary evidence relating to the
higher taxa of Flowering Plants was presented."
