John Heslop-Harrison. 10 February 1920 – 7 May 1998

There could be no better words with which to open an account of John (Jack) Heslop–Harrison's life than his own advice to students: ‘He who makes botany his life's work has many satisfactions before him; not least the sheer pleasure of investigating and handling entities so intrinsically beautiful and perfect at all levels of organization as plants’ (1).*
