Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Plant Life and Plant Uses: An Elementary Textbook a Foundation for the Study of Agriculture, Domestic Science, or College Botany This book is for boys and girls who study about plants. It is a book about the fundamentals of plant life, and about the relations between plants and man more than it is a "textbook of botany." Yet it presents, as fully as the author believes to be desirable in required courses, those large facts about plants which form the present basis of the science of botany. These facts also form, it is believed, a minimum of knowledge about plants to which every high school student is entitled. To present this minimum adequately, rather than lengthily to cover a maximum, has been the aim. Appreciation. - The book seeks to give its reader a certain appreciation of plants and of the relationship of plant life to his own life. The study of botany may or may not yield such appreciation. Boys and girls by mere accumulation of organized knowledge about plants may never come to that appreciation of plants as a part of life which is believed to be very desirable, and one of the proper ends of the study of plants in high schools. Delimitations. - The book presents the large essentials of plant life. It emphasizes their significance to man. But it does not pile up specific illustrations and applications which may not illustrate or apply in what is common to the lives of high school students in general. The effort is to include what has proper place in the education of all young people, and to exclude special information which properly has required place only in the education of some young people.
