What Is Cell Theory?

By Marina Cohen

Book Overview

This fascinating title examines the sequence of events that led to the formation of cell theory. In 1665, scientist Robert Hooke published Micrographia, the first significant work focused on miscroscopial observation. Later, Hooke's groundbreaking work inspired scientists such as Theodor Schwann, Matthias Schleiden, and Rudolph Virchow and led to the creation of this fundamental biological principle that shaped modern biology.
