The importance of haploids is well known to geneticists and plant breeders. The discovery of anther-derived haploid Datura plants in 1964 initiated great excitement in the plant breeding and genetics communities as it offered shortcuts in producing highly desirable homozygous plants.
From the reviews: "The book has twenty-eight chapters compiled by international authors, many of whom have a wealth of experience because of their long involvement in this field of research. ... The volume is highly recommended as an addition to any library. It will be a very valuable source of information for personnel involved in research and teaching in academia, and for persons with a more 'industrial' bias." (M. R. Davey, Annals of Botany, Vol. 104 (7), 2009) "This volume ... attempts to give a broad overview of this wide topic, and also presents some recent findings and concepts. ... No doubt any researcher in haploid production would find this a very valuable source of information ... and drawing on the expertise of many of the acknowledged leaders in this area of science. For a general reader, there is a wide range of chapters, encompassing useful subjects such as patents and haploids, and in many cases providing a wealth of information ... ." (Steve Millam, Experimental Agriculture, Vol. 46 (1), 2009)
