Reviews
"This is first and foremost a reference for taxonomists and is a most handy and useful book for horticulturists wishing a comprehensive single volume for taxonomic inquiry. The book contains an incredible amount of information and is a credit to the perseverance and work of Dr. Mabberly."-Allan M. Armitage, HortScience, '… a modern classic … an up-to-date accurate and user-friendly dictionary of great value to both botanists and horticulturalists … amazingly good value for money.' Dick Seamons, Science and Technology, 'The Plant-book is now widely established as a classic botanical work and an essential reference for any person, professional or amateur.' P. B. Heenan, New Zealand Journal of Botany, ' … I confess to being a major fan of this book, now updated in the second edition with 2500 entries. In fact I can't imagine being able to function efficiently without it!' Quandong, '… a fact book for which I shall almost eternally be grateful. Botanists and serious gardeners everywhere should go down on their knees in gratitude for Cambridge University Press and for the travail of Dr D. J. Mabberley who has laboured to produce The Plant Book. I can only join fellow botanists and horticulturalist in saying 'Thank You'.' Stefan Buczacki, The Guardian, '... a modern classic ... an up-to-date accurate and user-friendly dictionary of great value to both botanists and horticulturalists ... amazingly good value for money.' Dick Seamons, Science and Technology, 'The author has clearly kept abreast of the most recent developments, not only in plant classification, discovery, and popular usage, but even with aspects of genetic engineering. This new edition gives the reader an additional 2500 entries and 150 more pages of very condensed but well-presented plant information - an invaluable resource.' Kew Bulletin, "D.J. Mabberley and his wondrous Plant-Book...being all encompassing and indispensable, the botanical equivalent of Johnson's Dictionary" Tim Flannery, The New York Review, 'This new edition of The Plant Book is to be enthusiastically welcomed.'International Botanic Gardens Conservaton News, "The 858 thin (but strong) pages, the hard cover, and the small dimensions (23.5 x 12 x 3.5 cm) of this second edition make this book the true portable, practical, and most updated reference manual on today's market, and I recommend it to any person interested in plants." Brittonia, ‘… a fact book for which I shall almost eternally be grateful. Botanists and serious gardeners everywhere should go down on their knees in gratitude for Cambridge University Press and for the travail of Dr D. J. Mabberley who has laboured to produce The Plant Book. I can only join fellow botanists and horticulturalist in saying ‘Thank You’.’Stefan Buczacki, The Guardian, "Send your congratulations to Mabberley by purchasing a copy. It may encourage him to produce a third edition." P. Mick Richardson, Plant Science Bulletin, ‘The Plant-book is now widely established as a classic botanical work and an essential reference for any person, professional or amateur.’P. B. Heenan, New Zealand Journal of Botany, 'This new edition of The Plant Book is to be enthusiastically welcomed.' International Botanic Gardens Conservaton News, ‘^n my opinion, this book should find a respectable place in personal collection of fellow botanists and on the shelves of all libraries.’N. N.

The compact format of the book adds to its value, making it a portable reference." Neal M.

    1st edition, 2nd impression edition of "The Drunken Forest," by Gerald Durrell is as pictured & described. Arrived quickly & safely! Got a great deal on it! Great communication! The book, with a protective mylar cover, was wrapped in bubble wrap, then wrapped in sturdy cardboard, then placed in a rugged bubble mailer! Fort Knox in a mailer! So hard to get an early edition of this classic! So happy to add to my growing collection of nature & science books! Thank you! !!Seller Highly Recommended!!

    Sent message to seller when tracking number for UPS was showing tracking # invalid. Seller responded but didn’t answer my questions specifically. Only that item was sent which wasn’t helpful at the time but I waited. Package arrived in mail - delivered by USPS not UPS. No worries. Besides that… A+ seller. Good price. Good quality.
