Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This rich and fascinating book by a renowned expert traces the origins of entomology from its beginnings in ancient times through to the present day. Along the way, you'll travel through periods where entomology was dominated by the great minds of Aristotle and Pliny, before the discipline exploded in popularity in the 19th and 20th centuries. You'll learn about the lives and discoveries of entomology's greatest pioneers and uncover the often surprising ways that insects have shaped our history, from the silk trade to agriculture and medicine. Central to the book's narrative is the evolution of our understanding of the natural world itself, from the era of 'natural history' to the present day, where entomology is essential to the forefront of ecological research. This book will captivate nature lovers of all kinds, but particularly those interested in entomology and the history of science. It is a timely and important text that offers a profound new perspective on the world around us, and the interconnectedness of all life.
