Description

Aristotle to Zoos by P. B. Medawar and J. S. Medawar is an intelligent and engaging reference book that brings together biology, philosophy, evolution, genetics, medicine, and the history of scientific thought.

Arranged as a philosophical dictionary, the book examines important biological ideas, scientific terms, debates, and discoveries while placing them within a wider historical and intellectual setting. Rather than simply defining terminology, the Medawars consider how biological concepts developed, why they matter, and how scientific thinking has changed over time.

Accessible enough for the curious general reader yet substantial enough for students and science enthusiasts, this is a rewarding book to browse as well as read in depth.

A distinctive choice for readers interested in biology, evolution, philosophy of science, and scientific history. Add Aristotle to Zoos to your cart today. This is a one-of-a-kind used copy, so once it’s gone, it may not be available again.

Hardcover, Very Good. Book is clean and in great condition, dust jacket has some rubbing around the edges
