Artikelname: New Naturalist:Mosses and Liverworts (Hardback)
Artikelbeschreibung: A long-awaited addition to the botany titles in the highly-regarded Collins New Naturalist series, now in its 60th year. Mosses and liverworts - known as bryophytes - are a group of about 24,000 fairly low-growing plants which have no roots to speak of. Nor do they have flowers, but breed instead by spores. Both are commonly found in damp places, like ditches and beside streams.

With full-colour illustrations throughout, it covers: distribution patterns and dispersal mechanisms their relation with climate historical uses for mosses habitats and emmunities This is a branch of botany which has always relied heavily on amateur involvement, and the authors explain what amateurs can do today to increase our knowledge about these essential plants.

Artikelname: New Naturalist:The New Naturalists (Softback)
Artikelbeschreibung: A history of the most successful, significant and long-running natural history series in the world In 1995 Collins published the 82nd volume in the New Naturalist series to coincide with its 50th anniversary. Ten years on, Peter Marren has revised this fascinating account of the series. He covers the illustrious careers of its authors, how each title was conceived and received, and includes plates of the sketches and roughs of the jackets. It also gives behind-the-scenes details of the also-rans and the books-that-never-were. This will appeal to the collector's market - it has a lengthy appendix dedicated to collecting the series with advice on how to spot a good edition, and a star rating according to scarcity - and will mark the 60th anniversary of the publication of the first new naturalist title.
