Images showing the beauty in wood as viewed at different scales -- from attractive grain patterns visible at the macroscopic level to light microscope views of patterns of systematic value to electron microscope views of the minute features important to water movement in trees. Over 30 wood anatomists contributed photos. A few select references provide additional information on the topics illustrated.
Profits from the sale of this photobook will go to the IAWA (International Association of Wood Anatomists).
