Description
Introduction to Botany's comprehensive coverage captures students' attention and teaches them why plants are a fascinating and essential part of their everyday lives. The clear, concise text highlights four major themes--plants and people, conservation biology, evolution, and biotechnology--and gives students practical and relevant information about the world of botany. Thematic boxes throughout each chapter dig deeper into the relationship between plants and students' lives. Nabors' clear and engaging writing style keeps students interested in the science without ever becoming encyclopedic. The Botany Place Website offers a wealth of online resources to help students succeed in the course.
