This updated and expanded second edition, like the first, is designed to serve as a textbook for a one-semester course in the study of algae as well as a basic reference on modern concepts in this area of research.
I am a science lover. The moment I read the definition of phycology at http://adidarwinian.com/forums/topic/... I got interested in phycology. I bought this book the next day. It was really a knowledgeable book on algae.
