This book is addressed to all biologists seeking a review of the
various transport processes of minerals and organic substances in
plants from the level of cell organelles to the longer-distance
movements in the largest trees. It is directed toward students
having had some elementary physiol ogy, but the attempt has been
made to provide information of interest on the frontiers of current
research. Doing this comprehensively, we wished to consider all of
the points of view that appeared to be important; on the other
hand, space and time were limited. Therefore, the presentation had
to strike an intermediate ground between the style of a textbook
giving of selected problems and a comprehensive ref representative
treatments erence book covering all ramifications. The reader will
notice that the pendulum will swing more toward one and then to the
other. We did not want to avoid, and we felt it was not appropriate
to neglect completely our own special research interests, which led
to some emphasis on certain SUbjects. The immediate origin ofthe
book is the Heidelberger Taschenbuch 125 (HTB 125) Stojjtransport
der Pflanzen by U. L. (1973), which in turn was preceded by an
earlier work, Aktiver Transport: Kurzstreckentransport bei Pflanzen
Protoplasmatologia vol. VIII17 b by U. L. (1969). At the Li verpool
Workshop on Ion Transport in 1972 organized by W. Peter An derson,
and while in a jovial and expansive mood, the authors agreed to
produce an English version."
