This account examines plant translocation specifically in the
phloem (the tissue that conducts the products of photosynthesis and
their metabolytes). It was first published in 1973 and gives a
review of the well-established facts, whilst interpreting them in
the light of the author's own theory of the mechanism. Professor
Canny has produced numerous summaries of published data and recast
quantitative information so that material that was scattered
throughout the literature and difficult to compare sits together in
an easily accessible form. The author has taken care to bring to
the attention of the reader important passages from classical
works, as well as writings on translocation from the sixties and
seventies. The author writes in a lively style that is at once
informative and provocative, and the book will appeal to those
interested in the historical development of the many exciting and
often conflicting theories of phloem transport.
