This atlas gives a unique assemblage of microscopic slides of wood anatomy and and demonstrates the reaction of stem anatomy to environments in which plants form woody stems. Presented in color throughout it has over 700 beautiful and instructive illustrations.

The global perspective of the findings is underlined by the analysis of 500 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, and the boreal and arctic zones in Eurasia and Canada.

This work, published in two volumes, contains descriptions of the wood and bark anatomies of 3,000 dicotyledonous plants of 120 families, highlighting the anatomical and phylogenetic diversity of dicotyledonous plants of the Northern Hemisphere.
