Synopsis Linnaeus' Philosophia Botanica by : Carl von Linné

The eighteenth-century botanist Carl von Linné, more commonly known as Linnaeus, was the inventor of the binary nomenclature now standard in biology. His Philosophia Botanica represents a key stage in the evolution of the scientific classification and naming of plants, and is a classic in the history of science and botany. Amazingly, no complete translation into English has been undertaken since 1775 prior to this edition.

Synopsis Bloom by : Amy King

Starting from the botanical crazes inspired by Linnaeus in the eighteenth century, and exploring the variations it spawned--natural history, landscape architecture, polemical battles over botany's prurience--this study offers a fresh, detailed reading of the courtship novel from Jane Austen to George Eliot and Henry James. By reanimating a cultural understanding of botany and sexuality that we have lost, it provides an entirely new and powerful account of the novel's role in scripting sexualized courtship, and illuminates how the novel and popular science together created a cultural figure, the blooming girl, that stood at the center of both fictional and scientific worlds.

Synopsis Linnaeus' Philosophia Botanica by :

Philosophia Botanica (The Science of Botany), by Carl Linnaeus, was originally published in Latin in Stockholm and Amsterdam in 1751. It is a greatly expanded revision of his Fundamenta Botanica (Foundations of Botany) of 1736, summarizing his work on the classification and taxonomy of plants while adding substantial new material. The book represents a critical stage in the evolution of binomial nomenclature, with a single word to describe the genus and another for the species. Special importance is attached to accurate description of the parts of plants, and to the correct use of technical terms. There are also explanations of the effects of soil and climatic conditions on plant growth. The book includes 10 original engravings, with 167 figures showing the shapes of leaves and other parts of the plant, and 6 short memoranda describing Linnaeus' botanical excursions, detailing his ideas for garden and herbarium construction, and outlining what is required of a botanist and his pupils. There are also indexes of technical terms, genera, and subjects. The first full English translation of this classic work since 1775, this beautiful book will be highly attractive to botanists and all those interested in the history of science.

If you want to be an innovator , you must read about great scientists from around the world and get inspired by their work! Scientists are one of the main reasons that society has evolved to its current state. The efforts of some great scientists have contributed to the modernization of the world. Famous scientists like Isaac Newton and Galileo Galilei set an example for modern scientists. But there's a lot we don't know about it , and we're about to know all about it. So if you too are a science lover and dream of changing the world with your inventions , then read on and start creating! Scientists around the world have contributed to the development of medicine , physics , chemistry, and technology, among other important aspects of society. As a budding scientist , you can either adopt a theoretical approach or a practical approach. Both these methods are equally important in this field. In addition , research and development is necessary in all fields of scientific study , even for industrial purposes . So we understand the importance of scientists , let's take a look at some of the most brilliant minds and their contributions! Finally , you can even leave a comment to let us know how many of them you already know! Scientists of all fields are very important for the progress of the society. Some have completely changed the way the scientific community views science. So let's look at the world's famous greatest scientists.
