«Malicorne» is Hubert Reeves's essay on nature and science, published by Editions du Seuil in 1990 in paperback (209 pages, in French).
The book arises from Reeves's walks through the countryside of Malicorne, in Burgundy, and his observation of the plant world. That experience leads him to reflect on the relationship between science and culture and on how new scientific knowledge modifies our way of understanding human activity.
The full subtitle is «réflexions d'un observateur de la nature». The work belongs to the «Science ouverte» collection and includes bibliographic references.
For readers interested in science popularization and the philosophy of science, with a taste for observing nature.
Hubert Reeves was a French-Canadian astrophysicist and popularizer of science.
