Darwin's most wonderful plants: Darwin's botany today
Darwin, Charles, Thompson, Ken
We learn from Thompson how Darwin used plants to shape his most famous
theory and then later how he used that theory to further push the
boundaries of botanical knowledge. We also get to look over Darwin’s
shoulder as he labors, learning more about his approach to research and
his astonishing capacity for hard work. Darwin’s genius was to see the
wonder and the significance in the ordinary and mundane, in the things
that most people wouldn’t look at twice.
Both Thompson and Darwin
share a love for our most wonderful plants and the remarkable secrets
they can unlock. This book will instill that same joy in casual
gardeners and botany aficionados alike.
