Botany And Religion

Botany and Religion is a book written by John Hutton Balfour and first published in 1859. The book explores the relationship between botany, the study of plants, and religion. Balfour argues that the study of plants can provide evidence of the existence and works of God. He examines the structure, functions, arrangement, and distribution of plants and uses these observations to illustrate the complexity and beauty of the natural world. The book is divided into several sections, including a discussion of the history of botany, the classification of plants, and the uses of plants. Balfour also explores the symbolism of plants in various religions, including Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism. Throughout the book, Balfour emphasizes the importance of the study of plants in understanding the natural world and the divine plan. Botany and Religion is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of science and religion, and a testament to the beauty and wonder of the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
