Description
About this book
"Fossil plants, Vol. 3 : A text-book for students of botany and geology" by Seward is a scientific textbook written in the early 20th century. It concentrates on fossil gymnosperms—especially seed ferns (Pteridospermeae), cycad-like plants, cordaites, and Bennettitales—using comparative anatomy, morphology, and systematics, with frequent reference to living cycads to frame evolutionary interpretations. The volume is aimed at students of botany and geology and is richly illustrated. The opening of the volume sets its scope in a preface that explains the emphasis on gymnosperms and postpones a global survey of past floras, then launches into a detailed primer on living Cycadales to prepare readers for fossil comparisons.
