摘要

It is almost inevitable that the second edition of a book is larger than the first. But in this case it is worth reporting that the second edition is not only one third larger, but astonishingly one third cheaper than that retailed by Garland for £98.00 in 1994. As an added bonus the format is much improved from the merely adequate to the present more lavish design. This is exemplified by the provision of forty pages of coloured plates ranging from portraits of largely be-whiskered naturalists through illustrations from some of the books listed to views of venerable library interiors. Sadly this work must stand as a memorial to Gavin Bridson, who died shortly before publication, after a productive career that included spells in the libraries of the Natural History Museum and the Linnean Society in London before becoming Bibliographer and Principal Research Scholar at the Carnegie Mellon University's Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation in Pittsburgh.
