Glossaries?

[Merlin66]

Does anyone ever use the "Glossary of Terms" sometimes included in text books??

Yes

Thanks.
I'm never sure how useful they really are.....

I've got one open in front of me right now, believe it or not! Had a (friendly) disagreement with a colleague over the meanings of the botanical terms peduncle and pedicel. Relying on Wikipedia is a bit risky so I dragged out my old copy of Flora of the Sydney Region. Checked the glossary...vindicated!

Yes, of course. I want to comprehend what I'm reading and the GoTs defines the words I don't know, or am not sure of.
