---- Deuxième édition française REVUE et AUGMENTEE ---- "Inghen-Housz'further studies on plant assimilation and respiration" ---- "Ingen-Housz showed that the green parts of plants, when exposed to light, fix the free carbon dioxide of the atmosphere, but that in darkness plants have no such power. Thus he proved that animal life is dependent ultimately on plant life, a discovery of fundamental importance in the economy of the world of living things". (Garrison N° 103 & 145.52 1st english ed.) ---- Norman N° 1142 : "The second volume contains the results of Ingen-Housz's further studies on plant assimilitation and respiration, which led him to believe that plants and animals are mutually supportive, the animals consuming oxygen and producting carbon dioxide, and the plants doing exactly the reverse. The volume also contains Ingen-Housz's rebuttals to the criticisms of Priestley and Senebier, who disputed his claim to the discovery of photosynthesis and plant respiration" ---- Dibner N° 29 & Horblit N° 55 1st english ed**2758/A2
