It is a tool which should be in the hands of the historian of science, and the taxonomist; and a reprint is most welcome." --David Knight "We must not overlook the valuable service he rendered to science by the formation, for his own use, of a catalogue of scientific memoirs - an extraordinary work for a man whose hands were already so full." --"Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th edition As one of the "founding fathers" of American natural history Jean Louis Rodolphe Agassiz (1807-73) made major contributions to nineteenth-century geology, palaeontology and zoology. "Bibliographia Zoologi, first published in 1838-54 by the Ray Society, is a monumental study of natural history, containing a comprehensive listing of books and articles relating to zoology and biology. Hugh Edwin Strickland (1811-53), a British naturalist, played a large part in the editing and publication of this significant work and added more than a third of new material to the original manuscript. Also containing a guide to scientific periodicals and to the publications of natural history societies and institutions, this four-volume work is an essential bibliographical tool for historians of zoology and geology and all scholars of the history of science.
