Chemistry in the garden

Description:

"The aim of this book is to describe some aspects of the chemistry and chemical ecology which are found in the garden. Looking at the numerous interactions between plants, the soil and other organisms in which chemistry plays a central mediating role, this book covers themes including several of the chemically and ecologically interesting compounds that are produced by common ornamental garden vegetables, as well as those produced by predators that attack them."--Jacket.
