Book Overview

Insecto-Theology: Or A Demonstration Of The Being And Perfections Of God (1799) is a philosophical and theological treatise written by Friedrich Christian Lesser. The book explores the intricate and complex world of insects, using them as a means to demonstrate the existence and perfection of God. Lesser argues that the intricate design and behavior of insects are evidence of a divine creator, and he draws upon both scientific observations and theological arguments to support his claims. The book is divided into chapters, each focusing on a different insect and its unique characteristics. Lesser's writing is highly detailed and technical, but also infused with a sense of wonder and awe at the natural world. Insecto-Theology is considered a landmark work in the history of natural theology, and it continues to be studied and debated by scholars today.From A Consideration Of The Structure And Economy Of Insects, With Notes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
