A Controlled Environment: Phytotrons, Cold War Life Science, and the Making of the Experimental Plant
David P. D. Munns
Presents a history of phytotrons, huge climate-controlled laboratories that enabled plant scientists to experiment on the environmental causes of growth and development of living organisms. By recalling the forgotten history of phytotrons, Munns reminds us of the important role they can play in helping researchers unravel the complexities of natural ecosystems in the Anthropocene.
