Abstract
THE books dealing with the practical side of advanced plant physiology are so few in number that any addition to them is very welcome. As the title indicates, Prof. Grafe's work deals only with the metabolic side of plant physiology, the phenomena included under the term irritability being excluded from the scope of the work. The book differs from all previous works on practical plant physiology in its size—it is a quarto volume of nearly five hundred pages-and also in its purpose, since it is designed mainly as a help in research work, rather than for teaching purposes as are the well-known works of Darwin and Acton, Detmer, and Ganong.
