These are reprint editions reprinted with the help of original book just to give the original look and feel we do not change its format and text due to which in some cases the text is not like new. About The Book:*Plant Response as a Means of Physiological Investigation* by Jagadis Chandra Bose explores the idea that plants, like animals, exhibit physiological responses to external stimuli such as light, heat, mechanical touch, and chemicals. Bose developed highly sensitive instruments to measure these minute reactions, revealing that plants show electrical and mechanical responses similar to nerve and muscle reactions in animals. Through rigorous experiments, he demonstrated that growth, movement, and other vital functions in plants are governed by measurable bioelectric signals. His work challenged the rigid distinction between plant and animal life, laying the foundation for modern plant electrophysiology and biophysics. About The Author: **Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose** (1858–1937) was a pioneering Indian polymath in physics, biology, and plant physiology, and one of the earliest scientists to study electrical responses in plants. His groundbreaking experiments revealed that plants respond to stimuli much like animals, challenging rigid distinctions between living and non-living matter. Bose developed sensitive instruments to detect minute physiological changes, establishing the field of **plant electrophysiology**. His key works include *Response in the Living and Non-living* (1902), *Plant Response* (1906), *Physiology of Photosynthesis* (1924), and *The Nervous Mechanism of Plants* (1926). Bose also wrote science fiction and published extensively in prestigious scientific journals.
