Reintroduces the genius of an enigmatic scientist and observer of the natural world - Ernst Haeckel. While his drawings display an understanding of biological structure, the skill with which he drew these aquatic protozoa renders them genuine works of art. This book features commentary and descriptions of the radiolarians from Haeckel's work.
Olaf Breidbach is the head of the Ernst Haeckel Haus in Jena, Germany, which is also the Institute for the History of Natural Science.
