Over the past decade there has been a resurgence of interest in growing fruitand vegetables in the garden and on allotments. Apart from the recreational, economic and environmental benefits, a major driving force has been an increasing awareness of the beneficial constituents of fruit and vegetables. This book is aimed at readers with a chemical background who wish to know more about the natural products that are present in home grown fruit and vegetables, “Growyour own chemistry”. Although the book is a sequel to “Chemistry in the Garden”, it concentrates on the fruit and vegetables which might be grown in gardens and allotments rather than on flowers. Many chemists are amateur gardeners and this book is directed at them as well as those with a general interest in the scientific processes involved in the garden.
