Publication of Three Volumes of Systematic Botany Monographs

美国植物分类学家协会出版系统植物学专著，为较长的系统著作提供了一个出口。由于出版短期书籍的高成本和植物学家可以获得的适当的专题丛书的稀缺，通过其他方式及时出版这些专著往往是不可能的。这些专著已经出版了十五卷，还有两卷正在印刷中。以前的NSF资助资助了第5-8卷、第10卷和第11卷的出版。本项目将提供资金，以抵消额外出版三卷的费用与这些卷的销售收入之间的预期差额。

The American Society of Plant Taxonomists publishes Systematic Botany Monographs to provide an outlet for longer systematic works. Timely publication of such monographs is often impossible through other means, due to the high cost of publishing short-run books and the scarcity of appropriate monographic series accessible to botanists. Fifteen volumes of the Monographs have already been issued, and two more are in press. Previous NSF subsidies have aided in the publication of volumes 5-8, 10 and 11. This project will provided funds to offset the anticipated difference between the cost of publishing three additional volumes and the income from sales of these volumes.
