Life Movements in Plants

Abstract

IT is now almost axiomatic that, to get what you want involves continuous perseverance, often patient repetition, and sometimes decades of undivided attention and devotion. Perseverance underlies the success of things which primarily may have seemed impossible. Men and women have fought, have devoted their lives, and have even given their lives, in order to achieve the apparently impossible. Some aims are impossible, and that is one reason why, whereas some champions have been successful in reaching their ultimate goals, others have fallen by the wayside.

Life Movements in Plants.

Sir Jagadis Chunder Bose. (Transactions of the Bose Research Institute, Calcutta, Vol. 6, 1930–1931.) Pp. vi + 211. (London, New York and Toronto: Longmans, Green and Co., Ltd., 1931.) 18s. net.
