Book Description
Providing nearly 9000 photomicrographs of hardwood sections - nearly half in colour - this atlas is a break-through in the field of wood structure. It allows identification of over 80 % of the world's commercial hardwoods, by matching or confirming wood structure, using a hardwood key. The first part, Macro, contains 1274 species showing their cleanly cut endgrain. The second part, Micro, shows microscopic sections of the transverse, tangential longitudinal and radial longitudinal surfaces of 1754 species. All species are organized alphabetically by botanical family, genus and species. The photomicrographs are prepared from authentic samples representative of each species illustrating their distinctive features. Each species in the atlas is referenced by its botanical name, family name, as well as a number of common, trade or other names. This publication will be particularly useful for professional wood anatomists, students of wood anatomy, timber restorers, museum curators, forensic and wood research scientists, maritime archaeologists and all other people interested in collecting and identifying hardwood samples.

Book Description
The anatomical data describing 152 families of Angiosperms constituting the CSIRO famil key for the identification of hardwoods using the microscope has been computerised. A description of 99 anatomical and other features used in this previously unpublished key is presented. Criteria used int he application of features for species identification, together with their variability and difficulties which may arise, are described and illustrated. An outline of the historical development of the edge-punched family key and its transfer to a microcomputer data management system is discussed.

Book Description
This atlas presents macroscopic descriptions, macro cross section pictures, general characteristics and identification keys of 335 wood species currently introduced in the European timber market from all over the world. Overall 292 different genera are represented and CITES-listed timbers are also included. Macroscopic descriptions are based on a recently proposed list of macroscopic features for wood identification. Macroscopic features and their codes are defined and illustrated in the atlas. Wood descriptions also include information about natural durability, physical and mechanical properties, end uses, environmental sustainability and possible related misleading commercial names. Furthermore, each genus is described in terms of number of species, geographical distribution and main commercial timbers, and details are given about to what extent timbers within the genus can be typically identified through macroscopic and microscopic analysis, if any. The atlas will be a valuable guide for all agents in charge for timber verification, those involved in the European Timber Regulation enforcement and CITES inspections, as well as wood scientists, foresters, wood sellers, wood restorers, and any wood worker and wood passionate interested in a fast and reliable tool for wood identification.

Book Description
This work, published in two volumes, contains descriptions of the wood and bark anatomies of 3000 dicotyledonous plants of 120 families, highlighting the anatomical and phylogenetic diversity of dicotyledonous plants of the Northern Hemisphere. The first volume principally treats families of the Early Angiosperms, Eudicots, Core Eudicots and Rosids, while the second concentrates on the Asterids. Presented in Volume 2 are microsections of the xylem and phloem of herbs, shrubs and trees of 1000 species and ca. 35 families of various life forms of the temperate zone along altitudinal gradients from the lowland at the Mediterranean coast to the alpine zone in Western Europe. Special attention is given to the very diverse family of Asteraceae. The global perspective of the findings is underlined by the analysis of 400 species from the Caucasus, the Rocky Mountains and Andes, the subtropical zone on the Canary Islands, the arid zones in the Sahara, in Eurasia, Arabia and Southwest North America, New Zealand and the boreal and arctic zones in Eurasia and Canada. The presence of annual rings in all life forms demonstrates that herbs and dwarf shrubs are an excellent tool for the reconstruction of annual biomass production and the interannual dynamic of plant associations. The common principle of the anatomical expression of secondary growth is a key factor in understanding evolution and adaptation processes in all life forms, from the 3 cm tall crepide pigmea (Crepis pygmaea) in the alpine zone to the 40 m tall ash (Fraxinus excelsior) in Central European riparian forests. The study opens vast fields of research for dendrochronology, wood anatomy, taxonomy and ecology.

Book Description
Wood has played a major role throughout human history. Strong and versatile, the earliest humans used wood to make shelters, cook food, construct tools, build boats, and make weapons. Recently, scientists, politicians, and economists have renewed their interest in wood because of its unique properties, aesthetics, availability, abundance, and perha
