This dictionary covers both the pure and the applied aspects of the subject and such related fields as agriculture and horticulture. Encyclopaedic in form and with an extensive cross-referencing system, it contains substantial articles on major terms and concepts as well as shorter articles, ranging from physiology to cell biology, microbiology to horticulture and genetics to plant pathology.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
