Enquiry Into Plants is a foundational work in botany, written by Theophrastus, a student of Aristotle, around 350 BC. This volume, part of a larger set, makes this important classical text accessible to modern readers. Theophrastus' meticulous observations and classifications of plants laid the groundwork for future botanical studies and offer invaluable insights into ancient Greek understanding of the natural world.
