Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a fascinating journey through the history of animal morphology, exploring how our understanding of animal form has evolved over time. The author delves into the key figures and concepts that shaped this field, revealing how different schools of thought have grappled with the relationship between form and function. From Aristotleââ â¢s pioneering work on the unity of plan in different animal groups to the emergence of embryology as a crucial tool for understanding animal development, the book highlights the key milestones that marked the development of morphology. The author also examines the impact of the microscope and the rise of materialism on our understanding of animal structure, demonstrating how these developments led to new insights into the intricate organization of living things. The book concludes with a compelling argument for the importance of understanding the active and dynamic nature of animals, suggesting that focusing solely on the historical aspect of structure might limit our understanding of life itself. This book offers a thought -provoking exploration of the history of a crucial scientific discipline, illuminating the rich intellectual tapestry of biological thought and the enduring quest to understand the nature of life.

First Edition. Embossed stamp on title page: "With Mr. Murray's Compliments". "In 1916, at the age of twenty-nine, Edward Stuart Russell published his first major work, Form and Function: a Contribution to the History of Animal Morphology. This book has maintained wide readership among scientists and historians since its initial publication, and today is generally recognized as the first modern, sustained study of the history of morphology. In particular, Form and Function incorporates an extensive theoretical analysis of the relationship between embryological studies and comparative morphology in the nineteenth century. Russell employs a history-of-ideas approach in this book, describing the most significant morphologists and their theories. The first chapters of Form and Function discuss early investigators into morphology, such as Hippocrates and Aristotle. The book concludes with a discussion of the opening decade of the twentieth century and the works of Russell's contemporaries, such as Ernst Mehnert, Hans Driesch, Oscar Hertwig, and Albert Oppel. The broad structure of these chapters, and thus Russell's overall history, is organized into three main 'currents': a functionalist approach, which includes evolutionary morphologists; a transcendental or idealistic morphology; and finally a focus on experimental embryology or 'causal morphology,' to use Russell's terminology. Consequently the overall framework of Form and Function explains the emerging importance of embryology for an understanding of biological form" (quoted from Mark Ulett, The Embryo Project Encyclopedia, which can be accessed online).…
