An exploration of the sex and science of flowers. This is a botanical journey that reveals the science behind intelligent plants. Bringing together the work of botanists around the globe, this book looks at how they evolved, how they survive and how they heal. It also shows us how flowers regulate their own temperature, attract pollinating bats and even smell like a rotting corpse. Russell also looks at flowers senses and their healing powers, and how they are being used as a main line of defence against childhood lukaemia.
