The Explanation of Organic Diversity: The Comparative Method and Adaptations for Mating

by Mark Ridley

This book charts the development of a rigorous comparative method of studying species adaptation. "If Ridley's monograph is able to persuade comparative biologists to abandon counting species as though they represented independent evolutionary events, it will have done noble work."--Nature
