"Furthermore, the illustrator and author are identified as native to Mesoamerica based on a name and ligated initials in the first botanical illustration."

I'm afraid Springer's reputation is at stake. But that's their own business.

With fourty euros for hardcover, which is not that big price for a scientific book, it's evident they are aiming at mass market with this, and it's a pity they won't avoid cheap spots.
