This work serves as an introduction to the study of botany, primarily intended for high schools and early college courses, emphasizing structural and systematic aspects of the science. The book aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of plant anatomy, morphology, and classification while distinguishing the essential elements of botany from mere identification. The opening portion of the text introduces the author's objectives and rationale for creating the book, emphasizing the rapid advances in botanical science that necessitated new educational materials.
