Description
The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book.
English translation of this text-book was the work of Dr. H.0. Porter, Assistant Instructor of Botany, University of Pennsylvania. The proofs of this edition were revised by Professor Seward, M.A., F.K.S. The second English edition was based upon Dr. Porters translation, which was revised with the fifth German edition. The present edition has been similarly revised throughout with the eighth German edition. Such extensive changes, including the substitution of a completely new section on Phanerogamia, have however been made in the latter that it seemed advisable to give in outline the history of the English translation instead of retaining Dr. Porters name on the title page. The official plants mentioned under the Natural Orders are those of the British Pharmacoposia instead of those official in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, which are given in the original. In making this alteration I have consulted Materia Medica and Therapeutics, by J.Mitchell Bruce, M.A., LL.D., M.D. The fact that a considerable portion of the original has been rewritten, has necessitated the preparation of a new and extended index. I am indebted to my friend, Mr. F.Tidd Pratt, for assistance in this. William H.Lang. Glasgow, February 1908. - vVo sx lL Br A Ry
