This Gessner’s ’work is considered the start of modern zoology in the West and it was the most widely read of all the Renaissance natural history books.

Conrad Gessner (1516-1565) was a Swiss naturalist and bibliographer known for his significant contributions to the fields of zoology and botany. He was a pioneer in creating detailed classifications of animals and plants, which laid the foundation for modern taxonomy.
