Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a significant work on Australian trees, their variety, nuances, and history of classification, particularly the genus Eucalyptus. For hundreds of years, Australian trees puzzled botanists because of their unique qualities. The author, an expert in the field, argues that many of the observed differences and variations may be due to inter-species hybridization, an idea which was controversial at the time. The author notes that the acceptance of hybridization as an explanation for the variations within Eucalyptus species has led to a shift in the way botanists have classified these trees and has helped to explain the confusing array of forms that had previously been regarded as distinct species. The book includes a critical review of the genus Eucalyptus, with descriptions of many new species and varieties, as well as a discussion of the timber industry and the uses of Eucalyptus timbers.
