Synopsis
Excerpt from Scientific Botany: Or, Botany as an Inductive Science
IN producing this work of Professor Schleiden in an English dress, I feel that the reputation of the Author and the Work alike render any apology unnecessary; but I am conscious that I owe some explanation to the Public, both as to the manner of the trans lation and the delay in its appearance.
