Objective of this book is to provide light micrographs of the types
of cells and tissues that students typically examine in a plant anatomy course.
All micrographs are accompanied by figure legends to help the viewer interpret
and understand the structures presented. Each chapter in this web site consists
of numerous pages, each with a micrograph and an explanatory text.
This book is intended
primarily for medical students and others who do not necessarily intend to
continue the study of botany, but who desire or are obliged to obtain some
elementary knowledge of plants, particularly in relation to general biology. The
book is based on the first portion, which deals mainly with plants, of the
course in Elementary Biology for the Preliminary Examination in Science.
