Book Synopsis Alien Plants (Collins New Naturalist Library, Book 129) by : Clive A. Stace
Book excerpt: The word ‘aliens’ can be used in many ways, to invoke fear, dislike and fascination. For biologists it is used to indicate organisms that have been introduced by people to new territories. In the British Isles alien plants are common, conspicuous, pestiferous, beautiful, edible – and can be both useful and harmful.
