4.0 out of 5 stars The best guide to Mediterranean plants, 28 April 2009
By Andrew Hodgson (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a good book, covering all the species of the Mediterranean coast (most guides just cover a selection of species).
The book is organised by plant family, which may be a drawback for non-botanists, but the colour plates are good enough to track down the right bit of the book to investigate further.
The descriptions themselves are simple and clear, and a helpful feature in the margin is the line drawings which help clarify key identification features further.
This is a great book. The only improvement I could think to make would be to add colour photos and perhaps some description of distinct habitats and their flora communities.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wildflowers of mediterranean, 10 Aug 2005
There are a lot of books on mediterranean's wildflowers or other plant species. But, majority of them are far from scientific wiev. This book is with rich content and colourful identifications advisable scientific source.
