Abstract
THE problem of the conduction of excitation in organisms is one that concerns both plant and animal physiologists, and any advances in our understanding of conduction in either kingdom should be of common interest to all. Yet certain recent discoveries concerning excitatory conduction in plants have so far not become very widely known.
