fantastic book, 16 Nov 2008
I have owned this book for many years and it is still in my top three favourites for inspiration.The black and white drawings,mostly of microscopic marine life,are incredibly detailed and are absolutely beautiful,they will make you wish you were a marine biologist,or a science fiction film set and alien designer(probably).I would have them as wallpaper,but I may be in the minority on that one.If you are interested in art,marine biology or if,like me,you just like looking at pretty pictures,I truly believe you will love this book.
Art Forms in Nature, 30 May 2007
A beautiful book for creative inspiration. However, the cover is misleading as all the prints are in black and white.

Besler's Beautiful Botany, 02 Apr 2008
This is a wonderful book for those who love art and or those who love plants and gardening. Based on a 17th c german bishop's garden catalogued by the artist Besler many of the plants are still growing today. Divided into seasonal flower plates with a commentary section it makes for a pleasurable coffee table book or a work of reference. The hard back version is a bargain and the colours superb and antique looking and the size big but not too big to be unmanageable. I can't recommend this book high enough -it's a must for all who have artistic eyes or green fingers!

The book is the final word in scientific illustration, 29 Jun 1999
Over and over in my work I found myself referring back to this encyclopedic manual. A must for all those in the field of scientific illustration, and a huge help for graphic artists and illustrators in general.
