Ferns are the most remarkable of plants, and their science is both complex and beautiful. Among our most ancient plants, they have a unique way of reproducing, and their story reveals much about our planet's evolution. Ferns tells a remarkable science story by tracing their origins to over 350 million years ago. It explores how ferns migrated from seat to land, how they sought light and interacted within ecosystems, how they survived mass extinctions, and what their ability to adapt can tell us about our warming earth. Written by scientists with a passion for communicating impactful research that commands media and social media attention, and illustrated with jewel-like details by an award-winning botanical artist, Ferns has much to say about our planet's botanical past, present, and future.
