Report on the Archetype and Homologies of the Vertebrate Skeleton

by Richard 1804-1892 Owen

This groundbreaking work by Richard Owen, one of the leading scientists of the 19th century, lays out his theory of the archetype, a kind of ideal blueprint for the vertebrate skeleton that underlies the variations seen in different species. Owen's work was a key influence on the development of evolutionary theory, and this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science.
