Industry Reviews "Peter Bowler has written a history of the rise and fall of evolutionary morphology in paleontology and systematics that is both magisterial in its scope and definitive in its treatment. Among much else, he explains the tension between ideal morphology and evolutionary morphology that has remained so puzzling present-day readers. What was so hard about replacing archetypes with ancestors? Much more than one can imagine." Advertisement - David L. Hull
"Its value is not only in the history it provides, but also in the way it illumines the present. It should not be ignored by anyone with a serious interest in either the history of evolutionary science or its current controversies." Boston Book Review - Peter J. Causton
