In the C18-19, Western scientific interest in China focused primarily on natural history, but this activity has been entirely neglected by historians of science. Fa-ti Fan examines the research of British naturalists in China and uses their example to argue for a reinterpretation of the history of natural history, incorporating neglected figures, intellectual traditions and cultural practices.
