I saw something that mentioned this book and looked for it online.
Cacti: Biology and Uses by Nobel, Park S.
It was published in 2002 by University of California Press. Park S Nobel was the editor, content was provided by 35 "experts".
It sounds interesting. I found a used copy for about 20% of retail.
Has anyone seen or read this book?

I looked this book up on amazon and found they have one peer review of it. Sounds like it is as the reviewer states "an advanced book". I am posting the link to the amazon review. I see he also has several other books listed on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/10 ... &x=19&y=23 I also located a down loadable version on Ebooks.com for a lot less money. Here is the link to that page http://www.ebooks.com/ebooks/book_displ ... IID=224651 Lastly I found a discription of the book by the University of California Press with information on the contributors and Editor (Park S. Nobel) http://www.ucpress.edu/books/pages/9139.php Looks interesting has lots of info from many experts. Hope you find these links useful.
