The compelling story of the first comprehensive book on the biology of molluscs, published between 1685 and 1692. This remarkable pioneering work in the history of natural history was even more remarkable by being illustrated by Lister’s two daughters Susanna and Anna, perhaps the first women scientific illustrators.
