{"product_id":"micrographia-historic-microscope-images-coloring","title":"Micrographia: Historic Microscope Images Coloring Book (Historic Images) (Volume 1)","description":"Explore the beauty of fleas fungi and other unlikely things with these historic illustrations of some of the earliest microscope images. This 8.5 x 11 inch coloring book contains every plate from Robert Hooke's 1665 publication Micrographia in high resolution. Each illustration is printed on one side of the page with a brief quote from Micrographia and room for notes on the other side. Robert Hooke (1635-1703) is somewhat obscure today due in part to the enmity of his famous influential and extremely vindictive colleague Sir Isaac Newton. Yet Hooke was perhaps the single greatest experimental scientist of the seventeenth century. His reputation in the history of biology largely rests on his book Micrographia published in 1665. Using his compound microscope and illumination system he observed organisms as diverse as insects sponges bryozoans foraminifera and bird feathers. Micrographia was an accurate and detailed record of his observations illustrated with magnificent drawings.
