Eric as I think you know I like the written word probably a bit too much and am know to rattle on at the drop of a hat....and I do think this book has merit...however I would advise anyone buying this book to apply their own common sense before adopting some of the terminology into their reporting or even general conversations with clients.

eg To suggest that canopy form should be described as deliquescent seems a bit unnecessary to me.

LOL, but the best part is Danny Draper wrote the book. That alone would have some Tree Doctors fuming. Hope the grammar is in check.
