"Collectively, the chapters in this symposium volume from the
Systematics Association present a vibrant view of this growing
field…Developmental Genetics and Plant Evolution brings together a
variety of approaches and systems where we are beginning to glean
some of the answers…the book does a good job in highlighting the
evo-devo potential of many plant systems"
Vivian F. Irish, Science, vol. 298, December 2002
"The book has clear figures and line drawings and several colorful
plates of all manner of morphological variation. There are two
useful indices of subject terms and taxon names. The provision of a
glossary is an excellent idea to help bridge disciplinary gap…A
book of this sort should help to keep the dialogue going between
developmentalists and evolutionists…I think all players in this
game can learn from the diverse and interesting perspective and
approaches presented."
R. Geeta, American Journal of Botany, 2003
