Excerpt from Annals of Botany, 1897, Vol. 11 Another decade, and in 1857 he published his Introduction to Cryptogamic Botany, a memorable book which may still be consulted with advantage and always with pleasure. At the time and for long after it played somewhat the part filled in later years by Sachs' Lehrbuch. It was the first com prehensive treatise of the kind in any language. While summing up the striking results of foreign research, it was no mere compilation but everywhere drew materials from personal observation. The facts it contains still reveal them selves from time to time with unexpected freshness. One of the most striking instances is the account of the curious organism E mert'eella, in which Berkeley came very near to an anticipation of Schwendener's hypothesis of the nature of Lichens. The great merit of all his work is the true biological spirit with which it was pervaded. Perhaps Mycology in this respect has the advantage over other branches of taxonomy in that. For the most part. It requires its material to be dealt with in the living state. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
