Format:Paperback
A beautiful book for creative inspiration. However, the cover is misleading as all the prints are in black and white.

I have owned this book for many years and it is still in my top three favourites for inspiration.The black and white drawings,mostly of microscopic marine life,are incredibly detailed and are absolutely beautiful,they will make you wish you were a marine biologist or a science fiction film set and alien designer(probably).I would have them as wallpaper,but I may be in the minority on that one.If you are interested in art,marine biology or if,like me,you just like looking at beautifully drawn pictures,I truly believe you will love this book.

Love this book - beautiful, detailed plates of protozoa, diatoms, plants and animals. Didn't realise they'd all be black and white, because of the cover art, but they'd be good to photocopy and colour I suppose. I use it for science with my home-educated son but also to help him design imaginary creatures and objects for stories.

good condition. amazing drawings
I received it in very good condition with lots of unnecessary packaging though. The drawings are amazing as expected but it would be better if they were coloured.
