Description

Explore the history and development of phylogenetic thought with Ancestors in Evolutionary Biology: Linear Thinking about Branching Trees. Published by Cambridge University Press as part of the Systematics Association Special Volume Series (Volume 91), this book examines how phylogenetics emerged in the late nineteenth century. It traces the evolution of narrative phylogenetics and lineage thinking from its origins as a speculative discipline to contemporary scientific debates. By drawing on the history and philosophy of science, this volume explains how researchers mentally trace character evolution along hypothetical ancestral lineages. It provides a deep look at how the power of phylogenetic narratives has shaped the study of taxa and their traits throughout history.
