Description

Explore one of the most debated topics in modern biology with Species Concepts in Biology by Frank E. Zachos. Published by Springer, this work provides a thorough review of the species problem, offering both historical context and theoretical depth for students and professionals in the biological sciences. The book begins by establishing necessary background information before tracing the history of species concepts from antiquity through the Modern Synthesis. It addresses the ontological status of species, specifically examining the individuality thesis and methods for connecting it with other philosophical perspectives. For researchers needing quick reference material, the text includes an annotated list of more than 30 different species concepts found throughout scientific literature. This makes it a practical resource for understanding how different frameworks define life and biological diversity.
