From the first detailed drawing of the moon to the first sketch of a cell, the earliest computer to black holes, trace the visual history of knowledge in this far-reaching collection of science illustrations. Some 300 milestones across anatomy, physics, chemistry, astronomy, and more, chronicle humanity' s greatest discoveries through the work of those who studied, developed, and documented them, from the 15th century to today.
Anna Escardo studied theory of literature and comparative literature, as well as mechanical engineering. Her double academic profile has led her to the constant search for bridges between the sciences and the humanities. A member of both the Catalan and Spanish Association of Scientific Communication (ACCC and AECC), she works as a science communicator and generates content for scientific and cultural institutions and companies. Julius Wiedemann studied graphic design and marketing and was an art editor for newspapers and design magazines in Tokyo before joining TASCHEN in 2001. His titles include the Illustration Now! and Record Covers series, as well as the infographics collection and books about advertising and visual culture.
