Morison

It was just when systematic Botany had fallen back to its lowest level that Morison appeared upon the scene.

Probably it was the critical study of the works of the Bauhins that led Morison to frame a system of classification of his own.

Since Morison does not quote Cesalpino in his books, it might be inferred that possibly he had not read him.

As has been explained, Morison and Ray revived the forgotten labours of Cesalpino.

Morison's writings evoked severe contemporary criticism, more on account of their manner than of their matter.
