The evolution of angiosperms has always been a fascinating subject for botanists. During the past century, there have been many interesting theories and hypotheses, attempting to give plausible explanations of this, based on more and more modern data gathered from diverse fields. However, it is an irony that while 'modern' theories have been giving way to more modern ones, the 'classical' concept has so far survived the periodical onslaughts on it and is still found to be comparatively more acceptable by the vast majority of botanists. The present book by Prof. Dr. Meeuse, the newest on the subject, is an abridged compilation of hi& many papers published during the past couple of decades in which he had tried to explain his views on the matter.
