The Eye of the Lynx: Galileo, His Friends, and the Beginnings of Modern Natural History
David Freedberg
The discovery of hundreds of botanical and zoological drawings at Windsor Castle led to a trail that led across Europe to a little-known scientific organization from 17th century Italy called the academy of Linceans (or Lynxes). This volume documents the history of their work.
