CHARLES DARWIN'S BARNACLE AND DAVID BOWIE'S SPIDER: How Scientific Names Celebrate Adventurers, Heroes, and Even a Few Scoundrel
An engaging history of the surprising, poignant, and occasionally scandalous stories behind scientific names and their cultural significance. Heard's fresh approach shows how scientific names function as a window into both the passions and foibles of the scientific community and as indicator of the ways in which humans relate to the natural world.
