"A rare and beautiful selection of works handpicked from the vast archives of London's Natural History Museum." ""The book's greatest contribution is to showcase the work of the artists who, usually under very difficult circumstances, so brilliantly served science and opened Western eyes to new worlds."" - School Library Journal (on the original edition) Voyages of Discovery is a mesmerizing visual survey of the most significant discoveries in the history of natural science exploration. Superb artwork and photographs spanning three centuries document landmark advances made in the field and bring to life the fascinating stories of the explorers, naturalists, artists and photographers. The book is fully illustrated in color with informative text and captions. Highlights include: Sir Hans Sloane's 1687 voyage to Jamaica, where he collected and recorded plant specimens, including cocoa, which are preserved to this day Maria Sybilla Merian's personal journey to Surinam in 1699, where in brilliant detail she recorded butterflies and exotic insects Charles Darwin's fateful trip to the Galapagos Islands, on which he cataloged finches and fossils William Bartram's fanciful documentation of North American wildlife Matthew Flinders' mapping of Australia, where he was accompanied by Ferdinand Bauer, perhaps the greatest of all natural science artists. The Natural History Museum in London has the world's most comprehensive collection of natural science specimens and artworks. Voyages of Discovery offers readers a privileged opportunity to explore that collection.

小的时候曾经获赠一套书《哈利罗杰历险记》,讲的是一位英国博物学家带着十几岁的儿子去亚马逊森林收集动物和植物标本的故事。这是我那时候拥有的最喜欢的一套书了,反复阅读,看着哈利和罗杰在亚马逊河流上,帮忙或者帮倒忙,他们相继遇到了食人鱼和食人族,不过还是全须全尾...
評分我从海淀图书馆借了一本《发现之旅》回来,没花多少时间就看完了。顺手把一些植物名记下,从网上搜了图片后,存在自己的植物图片库里。 多年以来,我都是用这种笨拙的方式在认识植物。把听说的、看到的每一种植物图片都存在一个巨大的文件夹中。渐渐地,那个文件夹里有了几千张...
評分1.被雕刻的时光 小时候偶尔会画工笔花草,发觉要想画得细致真实,就一定得对着这花一看再看,斟酌落笔。长大以后少了耐心去画,但是看到这样的画作,目光总会停留一下,总觉得其中除了才情技艺,还有被珍重对待的时光。 最初这本书打动我的也正是其中的插图,自然界中的虫草...
評分书是不错的,特别是精美的插图。但是明显看出是外国人的叙述方式,而且因为历史事件总是多线程进行,说着说着说到别的插曲去,让读者有点摸不着头脑。最大的问题是翻译。特别是头几章的翻译,特别生硬的翻译痕迹,不符合中文表达习惯,编辑也没有改过来,有点失望。
