John Mason Good was a renowned British physician and writer, known for his contributions to the field of medicine and his extensive knowledge in various subjects. In 1813, he published "Pantologia: A New Encyclopedia, " which contained an array of handcoloured copperplate engravings depicting different aspects of nature. One captivating illustration featured a dromedary, also known as an Arabian or one-humped camel. The intricate details showcased the majestic beauty of this desert-dwelling creature. Another engraving displayed the adorable Guinea pig and capybara, capturing their unique characteristics with precision. Good's Pantologia also included depictions of animals such as the red acouchi and lowland paca, showcasing their distinct features through vibrant colours. Additionally, illustrations like that of the elastic bula highlighted fascinating marine life forms found in our oceans. The encyclopedia delved into botany as well, featuring orders of flowers like Monogynia, Digynia, Trigynia, Pentagynia - each meticulously illustrated by Sydenham Edwards. Furthermore, it explored plant species such as Cardiospermum halicacabum (balloon plant) and Dicranum osmundioides (close-leaved fern fork-moss), offering readers a glimpse into India's natural wonders. Intriguing seashells were not left out either; John Mason Good presented detailed engravings displaying specimens like thorny cockle and eight-ridged tooth shell. These images brought attention to the diversity found within our oceans' depths. Moreover, Good's work encompassed land animals too; one striking engraving depicted a graceful giraffe standing tall against its surroundings. Another showcased both domesticated dogs and wild wolves side by side – highlighting their similarities while acknowledging their differences. Lastly but not leastly were illustrations portraying creatures from beneath the sea surface.
