Abstract
The approach of photocalorimetry to decide on the true quantum requirement of photosynthesis — one of the main issues of the research in the first half of the century and a source of a bitter debate — is described. Bill Arnold's original approach to get into the true answer is reflected from the point of view of present day calorimetric techniques.Keywords
