"Collectively, the chapters in this symposium volume from the Systematics Association present a vibrant view of this growing field…Developmental Genetics and Plant Evolution brings together a variety of approaches and systems where we are beginning to glean some of the answers…the book does a good job in highlighting the evo-devo potential of many plant systems"Vivian F. Irish, Science, vol. 298, December 2002"The book has clear figures and line drawings and several colorful plates of all manner of morphological variation. There are two useful indices of subject terms and taxon names. The provision of a glossary is an excellent idea to help bridge disciplinary gap…A book of this sort should help to keep the dialogue going between developmentalists and evolutionists…I think all players in this game can learn from the diverse and interesting perspective and approaches presented."R. Geeta, American Journal of Botany, 2003
