Excerpt from A Monograph of the Genus CrocusFinding from the outset that it was impossible to successfully study the Crocuses from herbarium specimens without the concurrent help of the living plants, my first effort was to obtain for cultivation the various species that had not heretofore been introduced.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This work supplies the scientific information vital to support the conservation and sustainable use of this important source of timber. Cedrela has had over 250 years of commercial exploitation and is one of the most important tropical American hardwoods -- perhaps now the most important. Seventeen species are recognized, including four previously undescribed species. DNA studies suggest that the heavily traded Cedrela odorata has multiple origins and may comprise at least three distinct species. This work is a conservation tool for foresters, planners, researchers and policy makers. For those studying the genus in the field or planning its long-term management in international trade its appearance is opportune.

Monograph.it is a unique contemporary magazine that combines monography and review. Each volume follows an original structure, although all devote several pages to the study of architecture. Accompanying these case studies are galleries flush with places, buildings, and landscapes; when combined with detailed studies focusing on cities in evolution, Monograph.it encourages its readers to conceive of urbanisation and landscape as mutually complementary. The aim of this is to provide a comprehensive overview that acknowledges differing development-speeds of architectural productions, across a variety of scales. An ongoing project, this survey will be summarised in 'Researches' (a chapter to be published in the next issue). This will stress the importance of encouraging innovation in students of architecture. Monograph.it acts as a platform for theoretical debate, conducting interviews and hosting essays from big-name figures in the architecture world for example, the woman featured in this issue: Odil Decq. Perhaps this celebrated French architect's most renowned project is the L'Opera Restaurant in Paris, France, whose softly sweeping lines and red and white decor create an atmosphere that is simultaneously majestic and cosy. A breath of fresh air among modern architects bewitched by the strength of a straight line, Decq's constructions are not afraid to be curvaceous.

Excerpt from A Monograph on the Development of Elasmobranch FishesThough I trust that the necessary references to previous contributions in the same department of em quiry have not been omitted, the 'literature of the subject' will nevertheless be found to occupy a far smaller share of space than is usual in works of a similar character. This is an intentional protest on my part against, what appears to me, the unreasonable amount of space so frequently occupied in this way. The pages devoted to the 'previous literature' only weary the reader, who is not wise enough to skip them, and involve a great and useless expenditure of time on the part of any writer, who is capable of something better than the compilation of abstracts.In conclusion, my best thanks are due to Drs Dohrn and Eisig for the uniformly kind manner in which they have forwarded my researches both at the Zoological Station in Naples, and after my return to England; and also to Mr Henry Lee and to the Manager and Directors of the Brighton Aquarium, who have always been ready to respond to my numerous de mands, on their liberality.To my friend and former teacher Dr Michael Foster I tender my sincerest thanks for the never failing advice and assistance which he has given throughout the whole course of the work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
