These volumes might help situate his work:

This blog about Serres seems quite useful.

Some years ago I read some of Serres, back when I was doing theoretical biology and teaching a course on Literature & Science, and I thought I might pursue some of these threads but somehow Henry Corbin would not let me go. As my work on Corbin now winds down I might follow up on Serres, and Bachelard as well. Serres lives in a world radically different from the one Corbin inhabits but I think there are fruitful conflicts, frictions, parallels and even certain "harmonies" that would be useful to ponder.
