This book is an exceptional history of science because it was written by a very prominent scientist. It's hard to imagine that a better history of biology will become available anytime soon. Especially the chapters on diversity and evolution are fascinating and understandable even for a layman, the final chapter on inheritance is more difficult because some familiarity with cell biology is required. At the end there's an interesting synopsis of some philosophical consequences drawn from the preceding chapters. If you're interested in the history of biology, this is the book you should begin with. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

No one in this century can speak with greater authority on the progress of ideas in biology than Ernst Mayr. And no book has ever established the life sciences so firmly in the mainstream of Western intellectual history as The Growth of Biological Thought. Ten years in preparation, this is a work of epic proportions, tracing the development of the major problems of biology from the earliest attempts to find order in the diversity of life to modern research into the mechanisms of gene transmission.
