Especially recommended to dedicated aquarium hobbyists:
Painstakingly translated from the original German edition, Christel Kasselmann's Aquarium Plants is a meticulous, comprehensive, and practical resource describing a wide variety of common plant species used for private aquariums. Aquarium Plants comprises an informed and informative overview of factors necessary to the proper care of such plants and detailed, one-page studies of individual plant varieties that include etymology, distribution, description, special care instructions, ecology and more of each plant variety, as well as full-color photographs that vividly portray the plants. Aquarium Plants is a reliable and excellent reference which is especially recommended to dedicated aquarium hobbyists.

would be better without missing pages problem:
Warning: Some printings lack a substantial number of pages. I recently received this book and tried to look up Riccia. Unfortunately, this plant is in the index but 23 pages including the page describing Riccia were missing from the volume I received. I have not gone thorugh the entire book to see if other sets of pages are missing, but for $80+ please check.
