Micrographia |
Note: One of the most creative minds in the history of science, Robert Hooke (1635-1703) made the observations and lectures appearing in "Micrographia" under the auspices of England's Royal Society. The prime impetus for the spread of microscopy during the eighteenth century, this classic contains a wealth of ideas, inspirations, and insights that convey a unique sense of immediacy and excitement. Based upon Hooke's oral presentations," Micrographia "requires no scientific background for enjoyable and edifying reading. It moves gracefully among its topics, which include the structure of molds, the visual apparatus of the fly, the cellular structure of cork, and the life cycle of the mosquito. Unabridged republication of the classic 1665 first edition, and the indexes to the 1745 and 1780 editions. |
