Kurzbeschreibung
This easy-to-use book helps you acquire a wealth of fascinating information about plants. There are 130 pages with text, each facing 130 pages of beautiful illustrations. Each page is a separate subject. Included is a coloring guide for the realistic illustrations. The illustration pages are composed of scientifically accurate line drawings with the true sizes of the plants indicated. Using colored pencils and the authors’ instructions, you can color the various plant structures to stand out in vivid clarity. Your knowledge of plants increases rapidly as you color the illustrations. There is a balanced selection of subjects that deal with all kinds of plants. However, the emphasis is on flowering plants, which dominate the earth. Drawings show common houseplants, vegetables, fruits, and landscape plants. They also show common weeds, wild flowers, desert plants, water plants, and crop plants. Botany Illustrated, Second Edition, has three sections. An Introduction to Plants gives you facts on everything from cells to seeds. The Major Groups section is from fungi to algae, ferns, conifers, and flowering plants. In Flowering Plant Families are magnolias to asters, and water-plantains to orchids, with the families of major interest included. You will find plants used for food, ornamentals, lumber, medicines, herbs, dyes, and fertilizers, whether wild or poisonous, or of special importance to our Earth’s ecosystem. Topics that will be of interest to you include: Why leaves ‘turn’ color in autumn How certain plants devour insects How a flower develops into a fruit with seeds Why some plants only flower at certain times of the year How water, nutrients, and sugars move within a plant, including tall trees How flowers are pollinated The ‘inside’ story of how plants manufacture their own food How plants are named and classified How vines ‘climb’ Why ‘pinching’ makes plants ‘bushy’ How plants reproduce sexually Why shoots grow towards light How specific leaf colors can indicate specific mineral deficiencies Botany Illustrated, Second Edition, is especially easy to use because of its great flexibility. You can read the text and look at the drawings, read the text and color the drawings, or just enjoy coloring the drawings. No matter where your interests lead you, you will quickly find your knowledge of plants growing! Thus, this beautiful book will be of great value to students, scientists, artists, crafters, naturalists, home gardeners, teachers, and all plant lovers.

If you like to color and flip pages...
16. August 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
My father used to remark, when offered coffee with cream, "If I wanted a milkshake, I would have asked for one." My (equally snide) remark concerning this book: "If I wanted a coloring book, I would have asked for one." As such, it is a nice one, with simplified outline drawings suitable for coloring. The information presented is fairly basic but well presented. The problem is that the information page for each set of drawings wound up on the obverse side of the drawing page, rather than side-by-side in a double page spread. This makes it so inconvenient (flipping back and forth to see the drawings, then the information), that the book is almost useless as a learning device. Seeing unrelated information and drawings side-by-side is quite confusing. And, of course, the price is a bit high.

Very user friendly botany book
12. Februar 2007
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Very pleased that this is both a botany book, covering basic principles of botany, and at the same time an 'adult' colouring book (a la Anatomy or Physiology colouring books), which allows you to actively reinforce your learning by colouring in the plant sections accompanying what you are reading. Very nice book.

This is an excellent coloring book with outstanding detail. Just be aware you need to purchase colored pencils. I spend an hour each evening coloring a few pages. Its a great learning tool!.
