Description
After examining events in the history of early twentieth-century embryology and developmental genetics–including the fate of Haeckel’s law and its various reformulations, the ideas of William Bateson, and Richard Goldschmidt’s idiosyncratic synthesis of ontogeny and phylogeny–the contributors explore additional topics ranging from the history of comparative embryology in America to a philosophical-historical analysis of different research styles.
