I had assumed he had a background in historical botany, so I couldn't understand why he described plant structures in such an unorthodox and unbotanical (and somewhat misleading) way. It turns out he has an interest in historical pharmacy but his early academic work was mainly in classics, oriental history and philology.
JKP, when you call his view unorthodox, unbotanical and misleading, and blame it on his background, then the necessary question becomes what is your background in order to make such a statement...
