Species: A History of the Idea - Species and Systematics
John S. Wilkins
The complex idea of 'species' has evolved over time, yet its meaning is far from resolved. This title takes a fresh look at an idea central to the field of biology by tracing its history from antiquity onwards. It explores the essentialist view, a staple of logic from Plato and Aristotle through the Middle Ages onwards.
