Guillaume Louis Figuier, est un écrivain et vulgarisateur scientifique français.
Issu d'une famille de scientifiques, docteur en médecine en 1841, Figuier fut pharmacien et professeur à l'école de pharmacie de Montpellier (1846), puis à celle de Paris.

Il est inhumé au cimetière du Père-Lachaise ...more
