Descrizione del libro

These lectures, published at Yale in 1913, illuminate the formation of theories that are central to the modern study of genetics, heredity and evolution. In them, William Bateson (1861–1926) chronicles the conflicting and developing theories on taxonomy, speciation, variation and hybridisation, using a wide taxonomic range of detailed examples.
