      <abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>The Museum of Natural History of the University of Florence, founded in 1775 by the Grand Duke Peter Leopold, is the oldest scientific museum in Europe. Firenze University Press opens the series dealing with the six sections of the Museum with this book on  La Specola, situated in Palazzo Torrigiani, which represented the original nucleus. 
The articles in the first section reconstruct the historic background, the foundation of La Specola and the genesis and development of the collections. The second part considers the anatomical waxes, the entomological collections, and those of the vertebrates and the invertebrates, with a view to providing a description of the precious specimens that is at once precise and accessible. Finally, the third section completes the picture, retracing the important research activity that has accompanied the history of La Specola and reporting on the scientific projects in which the personnel are engaged. The largest collection in the world of anatomical wax models and the vast zoological collection are illustrated by the people directly involved in the related research, and by a superb selection of original photos produced specially for this publication.

        <p>Il Museo di Storia Naturale dell'Università di Firenze, fondato nel 1775 dal Granduca Pietro Leopoldo, è il più antico museo scientifico d'Europa. Con questo volume sulla Specola, sita a Palazzo Torrigiani, che ne è stato il nucleo originario, la Firenze University Press apre la serie dedicata alle sei Sezioni del Museo. 
I contributi della prima parte ricostruiscono i presupposti storici e la fondazione della Specola, la genesi e lo sviluppo delle collezioni. La seconda parte passa in rassegna le cere anatomiche, le collezioni entomologiche, quelle degli invertebrati e dei vertebrati, con l'intento di fornire un'accurata quanto agevole descrizione dei preziosi esemplari. La terza parte, infine, completa il quadro, ripercorrendo l'importante attività di ricerca che ha accompagnato la storia della Specola e facendo il punto sui progetti scientifici nei quali il suo personale è impegnato. La più grande collezione al mondo di cere anatomiche e la vastissima collezione zoologica vengono illustrate dai diretti protagonisti delle ricerche che vi si legano e da un ricco apparato di foto originali realizzate appositamente per questa pubblicazione.
