Students of a phenomenon as common but complex as andesite genesis often are overwhelmed by, or overlook, the volume and diversity of relevant information. Thus there is need for periodic overview even in the absence of a dramatic breakthrough which "solves the andesite problem" and even though new ideas and data keep the issues in a state of flux. Thus I have summarized the subject through mid·1980 from my perspective to help clarify the long-standing problem and to identify profitable areas for future research. Overviews are more easily justified than achieved and there are fundamental differences of opinion concerning how to go about them. It is professionally dangerous and therefore uncom mon for single authors, especially those under 35 such as I, to summarize a broad, active field of science in book-length thor oughness. Review articles in journals, multi-authored books, or symposia proceedings appear instead. The single-authored approach is intimidating in scale and can result in loss of thoroughness or authority on individual topics. The alternatives lack scope or integration or both.
This is the latest book in a series that already includes the Easy Tree Guide and the Easy Edible Mushroom Guide, like its predecessors it is unique in using a combination of photography and artwork. The photographs show the plants in bloom in their natural habitats while the annotated paintings show details of leaves, seeds, fruit and other key features to assist identification. Over 230 of the commonest wildflowers are covered, with a spread being devoted to each species. Rather than arranging the species in taxonomic order, the book starts with white flowers and moving through the spectrum to end with violet.
There's a lot more to Nature than meets the eye!You bring a picnic to a beautiful spot in the forest. You sit and read a book in your garden. You take a quiet canoe ride on a lazy river.

Each title presents you with common scenes -- settings that may seem familiar at first. Hidden within those settings, are all kinds of animals -- and it's up you to seek them out! Turn the page, and you'll see how many animals you missed -- plus you'll learn a little bit about each creature. Hundreds or beautiful full-color illustrations make each Hide and Seek book an especially fun way to learn all about the world aroun you.
