It is rare to find an authoritative repository of practical advice on everything citrus, from propagation through growing and maintaining citrus trees. Detailed advice and guidelines are frequently treated as proprietary knowledge by citrus experts and consultants but are presented in detail in this volume.

In 1992 IPPS gave him the Award of Honor for his outstanding work in the IPPS Australia, and in 1998 the International Award of Merit for his service in the dissemination of horticultural knowledge.
In 1980, the International Society of Citrus Nurserymen (ISCN) elected Ian as one of three international
