Phylogenetic Systematics - Haeckel to Hennig
Olivier Rieppel, 2016

ISBN10: n/a    ISBN13: 9781498754880


Comparative biology became overtly evolutionary in the mid-19th century following acceptance of the ideas of Charles Darwin by Ernst Haeckel. During the next 100 years, these evolutionary concepts changed and inspired Phylogenetic Systematics--a body of work exemplified by the publications of Willi Hennig. This book is a synthesis and chronicle of a crucially important phase in the development of modern phylogenetic methodology.
