About the book >.>.> This long-awaited book is time than a key volume in the New Naturalist series: it is work of the first importance by the leading authority on the subject. For though Sir Edward Salisbury is be known to the public for his thirteen years' work as Director of Kew, and for his outstandingly successful gardening books, he has accumulated over years of study a first-hand knowledge of our weed flora that is certainly unique. While it is completely up-to-date, Weeds and Aliens is the result of half a century of observation and curios-ity; it is likely to remain for a long time to come a standard work for Botanists, farmers, gardeners and naturalists alike. The prime interest of many of us in weeds is how to get rid of then., and for different species in different conditions Sir Edward gives the modern methods of weed control-a subject that has been revolutionised in recent years by the discovery of selective weed-killers. But the scope of the book extends far.
