Product Description This handbook will provide the student or keen amateur with a clear and reliable means of identifying those plants which grow wild in Ireland. It is a comprehensive reworking of the classic and standard Flora of Ireland; this will be the eighth edition. It has been brought fully uptodate through incorporating the latest in botanical research and it reflects contemporary and modern approaches to plant classification based on recent advances in genetics. Review 'Distinguished Irish botanists John Parnell and Tom Curtis provide readers with a helpful, sturdy handbook on the subject of Irish flora, originally created almost seventy years ago by noted Irish botanist David Webb (19121994). This updated reference for the student and amateur botanist contains a clear guide toward the identification of the higher order of plants, growing wild in Ireland, as well as many of the commonly cultivated ones. There are some notable changes in this edition; among them, there is a reduction in the number of families from 132 to 118. The number of species and subspecies has risen to 1,543. Wisely, the authors have taken a step into clearing up the common language confusion. Common English names, currently in use, follow the scientific nomenclature, replacing literary and other forms of reference. Colorful illustrations occasionally identify species on pages in this comprehensive text.' (Marilyn K. Alaimo, garden writer and volunteer Chicago Botanic Garden Book Reviews) About the Author John Parnell is Professor of Systematic Botany at Trinity College, Dublin.Tom Curtis is an Ecological Consultant and a Research Associate in Botany at Trinity College Dublin and an Adjunct Lecturer in Botany and Plant Science, NUI Galway.
