Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Class-Book of Botany, Designed for Colleges, Academies, and Other Seminaries, Vol. 2: Particularly of the United States North of the Capitol, Lat, 38 3; Illustrated by a Flora of the Northern, Middle, and Western States The science of botany is as eminently progressive as it is delightful and ennobling. By recent discoveries it has been established on the basis of inductive philosophy, and elevated almost to the rank of an exact science. The theory of the floral structure which refers each organ to the principle of the leaf, now enters into almost every department of botany, and gives a new aspect to the whole; revealing more clearly than any other discovery has ever done, the beauty and simplicity of the plan on which Creative Power is exerted in the production of the countless forms of vegetable existence. The present treatise contains, first, the Elements of Botany, according to the latest authorities, written in the form of simple propositions, briefly illustrated, and broken into short paragraphs, with direct reference to the convenience of the learner. Brief as it is, it is hoped that it will be found to embody all the established principles of the science contained in former school treatises, together with those newly discovered principles in Organography and Physiology, by which botany has been really enriched and advanced. The Flora is adapted particularly to that section of the United States which lies north of the Capitol, that is, of the 39th parallel, including essentially the States lying north of the Ohio river and Maryland. It comprehends all the Phænogamia, or flowering plants, with the Ferns, &c. which have hitherto been discovered and described as indigenous in these States, together with the naturalized exotics, and those which are more generally cultivated either as useful or ornamental.
