Exploring Written Artefacts
This collection, presented to Michael Friedrich in honour of his academic career at of the Centre for the Study of Manuscript Cultures, traces key concepts that scholars associated with the Centre have developed and refined for the systematic study of manuscript cultures. At the same time, the contributions showcase the possibilities of expanding the traditional subject of ‘manuscripts’ to the larger perspective of ‘written artefacts’.
Molecular Systematics and Plant Evolution
Molecular Systematics and Plant Evolution discusses the diversity and evolution of plants with a molecular approach. It looks at population genetics, phylogeny (history of evolution) and developmental genetics, to provide a framework from which to understand evolutionary patterns and relationships amongst plants. The international panel of contributors are all respected systematists and evolutionary biologists, who have brought together a wide range of topics from the forefront of research while keeping the text accessible to students. It has been written for senior undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in the fields of botany, systematics, population / conservation genetics, phylogenetics and evolutionary biology.

Irish Innovators in Science and Technology
This book of pen-portraits of men and women involved in Irish science and technology is a step in redressing the neglected state of the history of Irish science. It should assist in bridging the gap between the earlier Irish scientific tradition and the present scientific activities of our universities and research institutes.
Flora of North America: Volume 8
FNA presents for the first time, in one published reference source, information on the names, taxonomic relationships, continent-wide distributions, and morphological characteristics of all plants native and naturalized found in North America north of Mexico.
The Anatomy of the Dicotyledons: Volume IV: Saxifragales
The first edition of the Anatomy of the Dicotyledons written by the late C. R. Metcalfe and L. Chalk in the 1950s has become a classic and widely cited reference. Responsibility for the second edition has been undertaken by the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew where world-leading resources and specimen collections are at hand. Volume IV of the second edition in the series provides a comprehensive account of the systematic vegetative anatomy of the 25 plant families included in the order Saxifragales according to one of the internationally recognized systems of classification. Among others, the families include Cunoniaceae, Escalloniaceae, Hydrangeaceae, Pittosporaceae, Saxifragaceae, Crassulaceae and Preseraceae. Family relationships are discussed on the basis of anatomical and other information. The work combines both original research and literature review, including an up-to-date, detailed bibliography and many original optical as well as scanning microscope micrographs. This botanical reference will be of great use to post-graduates and researchers of botany, horticulture, and plant taxonomy.
