DEFINING SPECIES - JOHN S WILKINS GEBUNDEN

This book was listed as a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title in 2011. Defining Species: A
Sourcebook from Antiquity to Today provides excerpts and commentary on the definition of
«species» from source material ranging from the Greeks  through the middle ages  to the modern
era. It demonstrates that the logical meaning of species is in direct contrast to the use of
kind terms and concepts in natural history and biology  and that the myth that biologists or
natural historians were ever essentialists about kinds is mistaken.
