Lives of Eminent Naturalists from Aristotle to Linnaeus
A critical review of W Macgillivray’s Lives of Eminent Naturalists. The author’s preface aims to illuminate private lives and pursuits of great naturalists, but the piece notes heavy religious bias, uneven judgments of Pliny and Linnaeus, and a generally sparse, somewhat quarrelsome biographical tone. The volume, praised for breadth yet faulted for tone, seeks to chart zoological progress from Aristotle to Linnaeus and promises a follow-up with modern developments.
