- Synopsis
- About this edition
The German doctor and scientist Philipp Franz von Siebold (1796-1866) played a major role in the development of Western scientific disciplines in Japan, especially in medicine. Equally important were his contributions to Western knowledge about Japan, which remained virtually closed to the outside world until 1854. 'Siebold and Japan' depicts the life of this impassioned man, whose love for Japan and its people resulted in the creation of several definitive ethnographic, zoological and botanical collections. A beautiful book with 35 colour and 45 b/w illustrations. A Dutch language edition is also available.
