bridge University Press: New York. An excellent intro-
ductory textbook on the photosynthetic process at both
the macro- and molecular-level, with a special focus on
the role of photosynthesis as a source of food and fuel.

and Environmental Processes . 3rd ed. BIOS Scientific
Publishers/Springer-Verlag: New York. This updated
edition provides a comprehensive review of photosyn-
thesis and an introduction to the existing scientific lit-
erature. It incorporates many recent research advances,
especially in the areas of the molecular basis of photo-
synthesis and the effects of environmental change. It
provides a good basis for those interested in the ecological
and environmental factors related to photosynthesis.
