Best resolution for a picture book?

My father is planning to publish a book about sea shells. He assigned me for the picture taking. What is the best resolution I should set on my camera considering I got 24 megapixels with my Nikon D3200. Also, the pictures will be re-sized and lay-out in a pattern of 4 pictures per page with shells' description at the bottom of the pictures. I'm thinking that if I set it at 24mp and if re-sized the fine details of the shells will be lost.

I'm not a professional, the book he needs to publish is just for his research. Kindly help out. Thank you.
