How fast does the eucalyptus, one of the tallest trees in the world, grow? What does the smallest flower in the world look like? What makes the Volga River "bloom"? Why is the Chinese rose not a rose at all? What is dangerous and useful belladonna, how it was used by Roman women and why it received such a name? Answers to these and many other questions you will find in the "Entertaining Botany" AV Zinger, who spent almost 10 years to write it. Primarily known as a physicist, Zinger loved the world of plants from childhood and sought to develop the same feeling in others. Structured in the format of "ingenuous amateur conversations," as the author himself called them, and complemented by detailed illustrations, this book will appeal to anyone who is fascinated by the rich world of flora and wants to learn as much about it as possible.
