Experiments on Animals and the Natural History

In this discussion the author argues natural history should reveal general processes of nature through animal experiments. He envisions royal patronage aiding managers and princes to fund and direct experiments, including cross species unions, monster productions, and microscopic discoveries worthy of state support. He notes Bouffon and Needham as pioneers and calls for observers, verification, and prizes for optics advances.
