The second edition of this work provides a comprehensive account of all aspects of stomatal biology. The substantially revised text is up to date and illustrated with line illustrations, photographs and tables. The theory of gaseous diffusion through stomata is reviewed in a new chapter and sections on signal perception and transduction, guard cell ionic relations and guard cell metabolism have been added. A concluding chapter reviews the genetics and molecular biology of stomata. This work provides a reference text which should appeal to advanced students, postgraduates and lecturers in plant physiology.

Reviews of the first edition: This paperback is, in general, well written and easy to read, especially as an introductory text for students ... A service to plant physiology has been well performed. This reviewer commends this little book as being 'a window upon the soul' of stomata ... - Journal of Experimental Botany; [Willmer] gives a highly readable, excellently illustrated account of the distribution, anatomy, structure and development of guard cells ... I know of no other review of the structural aspects of this range and elegance - Times Higher Education Supplement; Dr Willmer has produced a neat, crisply written monograph which will serve up to first degree level in all plant sciences for a good while to come - Biologist
