“This book, unique in its own way, focuses on the study of halophytes, plants able to survive in highly saline and arid conditions. Characterized by a great diversity and widespread in the plant world, they have a great theoretical and practical significance. … In this way it represents a work of reference, a valuable scientific information instrument in the field of theoretical and practical biology, generally.” (Aurelia Brezeanu, Romanian Journal of Biology, Vol. 58 (2), 2013)
