Format:Paperback
I bought this book to accompany an RHS course I am doing. The illustrations are excellent and believe it or not colouring in the pictures really helps with learning. You feel distinctly childish colouring in pictures but by referencing the text it does reinforce what you are trying to hammer into your memory.

This study technique works well for me.
3 July 2002
Format:Paperback
At first you have to hide the fact that at, age 53, you are using a coloring book! Nevertheless I have stuck with it through a number of pages and have found out that my retention and ability to recall through visualizing the diagrams increases many fold versus the read and think method. When I revisit the pages to study the topic it comes back much easier. The book seems to be a good balance between the written text/descriptions and the illustrations. It takes a fairly big time commitment and at times you ask yourself, "Is this the best use of my study time?". Well after a few days the accuracy of my retention answered that question with a huge YES. It is much more technical than how one might visualize as 'coloring book'. I really do enjoy it and am learning the topics.

Excellent for older students including college age

Format:Paperback
This is an incredibly detailed and thorough examination of the anatomy and physiology of plants. A great way to for visual learners to supplement their learning experience. I found it extremely helpful in my college Introductory Botany course.

This book is interesting and fun!
19 July 1998
Format:Paperback
I wanted to know more about plants and how to look at plants. How do you start without to find out when you do not really want to commit time to doing a college course or reading technical books? I am more than pleased to find a book that is so complete and is written for adults. Can't belive how much fun I'm having with it. Thanks, Authors!
