Darwin's natural selection theory and the German Reich's interest in colonial expansion provided the background for a new botanical methodology, which treated Nature as the Laboratory. In this 1990 book, Eugene Cittadino describes the work of the botanical reform movement and assesses its contribution to the new science of ecology.
