In summary, the very good introductory parts make the book more easily accessible for beginners, undergraduates, and teachers, while the up-to-date and in-depth discussions are highly useful for every scientist who is interested in the evolution of plant forms. Overall, I will finish with my congratulations to the authors for this extremely interesting, excellent, state-of-the-art, and well-prepared book. (Journal of Plant Physiology, 14 September 2013) Overall I felt that this book will be a great first port of call for those interested in morphological evolution and it will be useful at all levels from undergraduate onwards. It will be particularly useful for molecular and developmental biologists wishing to move into a comparative approach. (Annals of Botany, 1 July 2013)
