Ernst Haeckel: Kunstformen der Natur

.
Haeckel was an embryologist, philosopher and a zealous advocate of evolutionary theory in Germany. He is said to have coined the term ecology. He is also famous for his stunningly beautiful illustrations. I would recommend finding Kunstformen der Natur (Artforms in Nature) in the library because the book itself is enourmous so these tiny digital images don't do it justice. Click on them to see larger versions.
