"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.

《发现之旅》属于那种每个人的书架都应该放上一本的书,它不仅内容老少咸宜——既是自然史科普,又是素描课欣赏——而且长得实在太美了。 全书收录了超过300幅来自于伦敦自然史博物馆的珍藏画作,鳀梨果树、秋葵、甘蕉、皇蛾、啄木鸟、鹤嘴翠鸟、孔雀、长尾巨松鼠、企鹅、海豹...
評分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 評分总觉得博物学是一门颇贵气的学问,非是要有些资本的贵族才玩的起,你总得带一队人马,跋山涉水,远离人类日常活动的区域,甚至要到地球的另外一头去收集常人所不曾见识过的矿石,树叶,动物标本。若不是有闲阶级,怕是没功夫也没时间去做的。 也因此,印...
評分在春天里读一本满是动植物的书,很是应景。纵使窗外还是冷雨霏霏,心中却早已是春江水暖,快绿怡红。 书是知识的载体,也是读书人的一面镜子。我喜欢《发现之旅》这本书,很大程度上因为我是个“复古控”。国家地理杂志对该书的评语是:“这本书实在很难让人(剪)刀下留情,...
