Transformed Cladistics, Taxonomy and Evolution

Description:

Examines the relationship between classification and evolutionary theory, with reference to the competing schools of taxonomic thinking. Emphasis is placed on the transformed cladists, who have attempted to reject all evolutionary thinking in classification and to cast doubt on evolution in general. This book examines the limits to this line of thought from a philosophical and methodological perspective rather than from a biological viewpoint
