SOME PRESS OPINIONS. 



" In noticing elementary books in these pages, we have lamented nothing 

 more than the want of a book which should do for structural botany what 

 Prof. Oliver's 'Lessons' has long done for the study of the principal 

 natural orders. It seems hard to realise that this grievance is no more, 

 and that we possess such a book in our own language, and a book that no 

 honest critic will fail to assess at a higher value than any known book in 

 any language that has the same scope and aim. Nothing could well be 

 more plain and simple, or more severely accurate or better judged from 

 beginning to end." Journal of Botany. 



"As an introduction to botany, which is all that this work pretends to 

 be, this is so excellent that we commend it most heartily to all who desire 

 to be well grounded in the first principles of each department of botany, 

 not of one only." Gardeners' Chronicle. 



" An introduction to the study of structural botany has long been a 

 desideratum in this country. . . . Dr. Scott's little book supplies this 

 need in a most admirable manner, and he has thoroughly earned the 

 gratitude both of teacher and student alike for the freshness and clearness 

 with which he has presented his subject." Nature. 



"It stands out from the ever-increasing crowd of guides, text-books, 

 and manuals, in virtue not only of originality of design, but also of the 

 fact that the subjects treated have been specially investigated for the 

 purpose of the book, so that we have not the mere compilation of a book- 

 man, but an account based on the results of the author's own observation."
