ISBN: 9780292753839 / Angielski / Miękka / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780773549401 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The incalculable influence of Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859) on biology, botany, geology, and meteorology deservedly earned him the reputation as the world's most illustrious scientist before Charles Darwin.

In Humboldt's Mexico, Myron...
