Written in 1598, Aldrovandi on Chickens is the first English translation of any work by the Italian naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi. It exemplifies the spirit and the letter of Renaissance science - the former, in the extensive classical references; the latter, through examination of every process involved with the raising or use of chickens.
