A General System of Nature, Through the Three Grand Kingdoms of Animals, Vegetables, and Minerals, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Discover a sweeping, historical natural history that organizes life into kingdoms, classes, and species, with notes on habitats, structure, and variation. This edition presents a systematic catalog of creatures—from worms and zoophytes to mollusks and infusoria—reflecting an 18th‑century approach to classification and natural philosophy. It assembles descriptions, relationships, and the curious diversity of the natural world in a single, ambitious reference.
The volume emphasizes how living forms are classified, described, and compared, offering readers a window into early taxonomic thinking and the breadth of nature as understood in this period. It presents long lists of organisms and their features, along with commentary on their forms and ways of life.
- Comprehensive classifications of worms, zoophytes, infusoria, mollusks, and related groups.
- Descriptions of habitats, anatomical features, and notable variations across species and varieties.
- Structured, plate‑ and figure‑referenced entries that guided early science and natural history study.
- A historical snapshot of how scholars organized the natural world and communicated its complexity.
Ideal for readers of historical science, taxonomy enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the roots of modern classification.
