Description

Discover the groundbreaking 1804 work by Nicholas-Theodore de Saussure, now available for the first time in English translation by Jane F. Hill. This seminal contribution to plant science reveals how water functions as a component of plant dry matter and demonstrates that plants obtain carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide. Originally titled Recherches Chimiques sur la Vegetation, this classic text is widely recognised as the first modern work on plant nutrition and a foundational study in understanding photosynthesis. Saussure, a Swiss plant physiologist and chemist, stands among the early pioneers of photosynthesis research, and his observations remain essential reading for botanists, historians of science, and anyone interested in how plants convert light and air into living matter. This Springer edition makes this historic scientific achievement accessible to contemporary readers and scholars.

Key Features

First English translation of Saussure's 1804 Recherches Chimiques sur la Vegetation, translated by Jane F. Hill with scholarly precision.

Demonstrates that water is a component of plant dry matter, a fundamental discovery in plant physiology and nutrition science.

Establishes that plants obtain carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide, explaining a core mechanism of plant growth and development.

Recognised as the first modern work on plant nutrition and a seminal contribution to photosynthesis research and botanical science.

Authored by Nicholas-Theodore de Saussure, a leading Swiss plant physiologist whose work shaped modern understanding of plant chemistry.
