Fabre Poet Of Science is a book written by Dr. G.V. Legros. The book is a biography of Jean-Henri Fabre, a French entomologist who is known for his extensive research on insects. The book explores Fabre's life, his childhood, his education, and his scientific work. It also delves into his personal life, including his relationships with his family and friends. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Fabre's life and work. It begins with an introduction to Fabre and his early life, including his childhood in the south of France. It then moves on to his education and his early career as a teacher. The book also covers Fabre's scientific work, including his research on insects and his contributions to the field of entomology. It explores his methods of observation and experimentation, and his approach to science as a form of poetry.Throughout the book, Dr. Legros provides insights into Fabre's personality and character, as well as his influence on other scientists and thinkers. The book also includes photographs and illustrations that help to bring Fabre's world to life.Overall, Fabre Poet Of Science is a fascinating biography of a remarkable scientist and thinker. It provides a unique perspective on the life and work of Jean-Henri Fabre, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science and the natural world.In the domain of things positive, it is not always sufficient to gather the facts, to record them, and to codify in bare formulae the results of inquiry. Doubtless every essential discovery is able to stand by itself; in what would an inventor profit, for example, by raising himself to the level of the artist? For the theorem lucidity suffices; truth issues naked from the bottom of a well.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
