Abstract
THIS publication is the outcome of experience gained by the author in the organisation and supervision of large classes of students. The subject matter and material, however, do not differ from that chosen for most elementary courses in the subject. The book covers the syllabus of university intermediate and Higher School Certificate courses. At this stage, few students find a practical book necessary, or even desirable. The book should, however, prove valuable to ‘private’ students, and also as a useful guide to teachers who wish to organise a similar course in practical botany.
