Description ▲
France Bourely takes the reader on a visual odyssey far beyond the reaches of the naked eye with her scanning electron microscope. She travels lunar landscapes on the back of an ant, explores secret valleys in orchid petals, scales the pistils of a daisy, crosses mountains made of pollen, discovers crevices on the back of a caterpillar and takes shelter under a bush of bristles. This volume reveals the microscopic dimension that surrounds us all.
