Abstract
“PLANT physiology,” the author states in his preface, “finds its practical application in plant production. … It is somewhat strange, therefore, to find that as a separate course plant physiology is not yet offered in some of the colleges whose purpose is primarily to train persons for practical or rural pursuits.” In helping to remedy this state of affairs, the author has produced a very readable book, useful to the student whose life is to be passed among plants and whose living is to be got out of them, and at the same time interesting to the general reader who loves his garden and has an appreciative eye for flowers and trees.
Plant Physiology, with special reference to Plant Production.
