Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the lives and work of British zoologist and ornithologist, Martin Lister, who lived from 1639 to 1712. Lister was a prominent fellow of the Royal Society and a contemporary of Sir Isaac Newton. A physician by profession, Lister's primary interest was in natural history, particularly conchology and arachnology, where he made significant contributions to the fields through the creation of a comprehensive and detailed system of classification for both. The author discusses the significance of Lister's work in the development of taxonomy and the history of natural history, as well as Lister's influence on the work of Carl Linnaeus. The book also explores Lister's personal life and his relationships with other prominent naturalists and scientists of the time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334686412_0
