About the book

Robert Hooke's Micrographia is a landmark seventeenth-century work of science and illustration. Using one of the early microscopes, Hooke examined insects, plants, fabrics and other objects and recorded them in extraordinary detail. His famous illustrations, including the greatly enlarged flea, revealed an unseen world and helped transform scientific observation.
