Excerpt from Comparative Electro-Physiology: A Physico-Physiological Study An interesting link, between the response given by inor ganie substances and the animal tissues, is that given by plant tissues. By methods somewhat resembling that described above, I have obtained from plants a strong electric response to mechanical stimulus. The response is not confined to sensitive plants like Mimosa, but is universally present. I have, for example,...

Excerpt from Life Movements in Plants With reference to the effect of ether waves on plants, I have given an account of my discovery of the response of all plants to wireless stimulation, the results being similar to that induced by visible light. The perceptive range of the plant is thus infinitely greater than ours, for it not only perceives, but also responds to different rays of the vast ethereal spectrum.

Excerpt from Researches on Irritability of PlantsI have in this work dealing with my researches on the irritability of plants introduced new methods by which the scope of investigation has been enlarged, and a very high degree of accuracy secured. In my previous treatise on Plant Response, the response recorder employed was a modification of the optical lever, automatic records being secured by the very inconvenient and tedious process of phot...
