Plant Sciences (Macmillan Science Library) by Richard Robinson

Description

Gr 10-Up Encyclopedic, in-depth treatment of plant-related topics from acid rain to wood products. While this set includes complex information (for example, how ATP synthase catalyzes ATP), it also offers basic facts on biomes, leaves, cells, individual scientists, related careers, and other subjects. The writing is clear and well organized, and depending on the topic, it's concise or very detailed. Highlighted words are defined in the wide margins and each entry provides see-also references and a brief bibliography. Most pages generally include a table, chart, photo, map, or labeled diagram that helps clarify even the most difficult topics. Volumes one to three conclude with individual indexes; volume four has a cumulative index. The set also contains a Geologic Timescale, a 16-page glossary, and a topic outline. A solid addition to school or public libraries.

The 280 entries are written by contributors from academic and research institutions, industry, and nonprofit organizations throughout North America. Almost every entry is illustrated, and there are numerous photos, tables, boxes, and sidebars. Unfamiliar terms are highlighted within the text and defined in the margin of each page. Most entries are followed by a list of related articles and a short reading list for those seeking more information. The reading lists cite journal articles and Web sites as well as books. Front and back matter in each volume include a geologic timescale, a list of contributors, a comprehensive table of contents, a topic outline that groups entries thematically, and an extensive glossary. Each volume has its own index, and volume 4 contains a cumulative index covering the entire set.
