The Oxford Francis Bacon, Volume XII: The Instauratio Magna: Part III: Historia Naturalis and Historia Vitæ

Francis Bacon (1561-1626) was a genuine midwife of modernity. He was one of the first thinkers to visualize a future which would be guided by a cooperative science-based vision of bettering human welfare. In this the first critical edition of his greatest philosophical work since the
nineteenth-century, we find facing-page Latin translations and a thorough and detailed Introduction to the text.
