“The title, Pollen Terminology, does indeed provide an accurate and succinct summary of this book … . This book is definitely worth having for the images alone. … I certainly recommend this volume. It is a book that should be on every palynologist’s bookshelf … . It’s one of those books that you didn’t know you needed, but the instant you see it, you know it’s just what you’ve wanted and is soon going to be indispensable.” (Alwynne B. Beaudoin, Newsletter AASP, June, 2012)

" ... als Bibliothekar der größten erdwissenschaftlichen Bibliothek Österreichs bekomme ich jedes (!) Werk zu Gesicht und halte es in Händen. (...) Sowohl die Fotos, wie auch das Lay-out, der Druck, das Papier sind von einer derart hohen Qualität, die man heute beim (natur) wissenschaftlichen Buch kaum mehr findet. Es ist eine Freude dieses Buch in Händen zu halten. (...) Ehrliche Gratulation zur "Pollen Terminology", mögen noch weitere Bücher in derart wohltuender Qualität folgen!"
