"In July 2005, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew published Legumes of the World, a book containing an encyclopaedic overview of the current knowledge of the 727 genera then recognised in the Leguminose (Fabaceae) family. This was the first fully-illustrated account of all legume genera. Legumes of the World was edited by four members of Kew's Herbarium legume research staff: Gwilym Lewis, Brian Schrire, Barbara Mackinder and Mike Lock (Brian and Mike have since retired). 20 legume specialists from 14 institutions in six countries contributed to the 36 chapters in the book."--Publisher description.
