«Le mythe de la procréation à l’âge baroque» is the historical essay by Pierre Darmon (Seuil, paperback).
Pierre Darmon studies how Baroque society understood and explained procreation: medical, anatomical and biological theories coexist with fantastical beliefs and contradictory accounts of the origin of life. The book traces these ideas until their progressive systematisation in modern science at the end of the eighteenth century.
The edition is from the first quarter of 1981 and belongs to the Points Histoire collection (H48).
A title for those interested in the history of medicine, science and the mentalities of the Baroque period.
Pierre Darmon is a French former tennis player. He was ranked No.8 in the world in 1963, and also reached the top ten in 1958 and 1964.
