A beautiful book of stunning black and white pictures, mainly close-up shots of the green universe. The brief text, written by Prof. Alessandro Minelli, combines curious information and scientific accuracy.
Dr. Filippo Prosser, Botanical Curator of the Rovereto Civic Museum Foundation, Italy, writes about this book: "Aesthetics and knowledge, rigor and art, are joined in these pages, combining the best of both, and transmitting them in a straightforward and direct language. In other words an approach to botany that uses a light touch, a good alternative to those ponderous volumes that seem bent on detracting from our interest in the amabil scienzia."
