Robert Hooke

"Micrographia" is a groundbreaking paintings authored by means of Robert Hooke, a seventeenth-century English scientist and polymath. This book is a tremendous exploration of the microscopic global, marking a pivotal moment within the records of science and microscopy. Hooke's "Micrographia" is widely known for its meticulous observations made through the usage of microscopes, which had been highly new instruments at the time. Through targeted illustrations and descriptions, Hooke found out the intricate systems and patterns in diverse herbal substances, which includes insects, plants, and minerals. His observations of cork cells brought about the coining of the time period "cellular," laying the inspiration for the sector of cellular biology. Moreover, "Micrographia" provided a wealth of know-how about the bodily and organic international, starting new horizons for scientific inquiry. Hooke's paintings no longer most effective multiplied our knowledge of the hidden intricacies of nature however additionally emphasized the importance of empirical commentary in clinical studies. Beyond its clinical significance, "Micrographia" is a testomony to Hooke's curiosity and ingenuity as a scientist. His capacity to carry complex thoughts through reachable prose and captivating illustrations made the microscopic international available to a much wider target audience, inspiring future generations of scientists and researchers.

"The Reason of making Experiments is, for the Discovery of the Method of Nature, in its Progress and Operations."Micrographia is a landmark in human literature; the first book to include illustrations of organisms (such as insects and plants) through microscopes; the first major book released by the Royal Society; the first popscience book (definitely the first bestseller in science). And, perhaps most surprisingly, the book that first used the term 'cell'."The most ingenious book that ever I read in my life."Samuel Pepys

Micrographia is a historic book by Robert Hooke, detailing the then thirty-year-old Hooke's observations through various lenses. Published in September 1665, the first major publication of the Royal Society, it was the first scientific best-seller, inspiring a wide public interest in the new science of microscopy.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Shortly after Hooke died in 1703, his miscellaneous papers and unpublished manuscripts were entrusted to Richard Waller, who edited and published some of them in a volume titled The Posthumous Works of Robert Hooke (1705; reprinted, Frank Cass, 1968). Waller himself died, however, before he was able to complete the task of republishing Hooke’s papers and they were eventually handed on to William Derham. After delaying for what some of Hooke’s followers thought to be a scandalously long time, Derham finally published this volume in 1726. It contains numerous papers and notes by Hooke as well as a number of important papers and letters written by Hooke’s contemporaries and found, evidently, among Hooke’s literary remains.This is an exact facsimile reproduction of Derham’s edition of the Philosophical experiments and Observations of the late Eminent Dr. Rober Hooke (1726) except that an analytical table of contents, prepared by the General Editor, has been added.First Published in 1967.
