Reviews
Each case study has a nice readable account of the physiological and biochemical processes. . . .Will serve nicely as a ready reference source on specific mutants. --Plant Science Bulletin <br> Interesting and up-to-date. . . .Useful for advanced undergraduates, graduates, and faculty. --Choice I was very impressed by the breadth of the book and like the selective way in which case studies are used to restrict its scope. It will not only be of interest to the plant physiologist, but will be particularly useful to the molecular biologist. In general I think this book is successful in meeting the authors objectives and I am sure it will take its rightful place in both main and departmental libraries. --Richard E. Kendrick, Wageningen Agricultural University<br> Its value lies in the opportunity it gives readers to look over the fence into areas of research other than their main interest. . . .I was very impressed by the breadth of the book. . . .It will not only be of interest to the plant physiologist, but will be particularly useful to the molecular biologist. . . .I think this book is successful in meeting the author's objectives and I am sure it will take its rightful place in both main and departmental libraries. --Plant, Cell and Environment<br> The coverage is broad, and shows a consistency which would not be found in a collection of reviews of the same scope. The brief introductions to each case study would in themselves make a useful physiology textbook. . . . the book appears to mark the end of a period of research, and not to herald the beginning of a new one. Perhaps this will make it an enduring classic. --Journal of Genetical Research<br>
