Description

New. Hardcover with dust jacket. Edition 2001, Frances Lincoln. 264 pages
The life of Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778), the man who gave living organisms two Latin names, is celebrated afresh in this newly revised and updated edition of the definitive biography.
This book gives a fascinating and rounded portrait of Linnaeus the man, charting his rise from a poor student at Lund University in Sweden to Professor of Medicine at Uppsala and a founder of the Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences.
Impeccably researched and highly readable, The Compleat Naturalist is ideal for anyone interested in botany, zoology and mineralogy, as well as naturalists and gardeners. It brings the world of Linnaeus alive with over 200 beautiful illustrations, including evocative photographs and exquisite eighteenth-century botanical drawings, paintings and engravings.
