''The Growth of Biology in the Nineteenth Century'' is a historical account of the development of biology as a scientific discipline during the 19th century. Written by Oscar Hertwig, a German biologist and professor of zoology, the book provides an overview of the major trends and discoveries that shaped the field during this period. Hertwig begins by discussing the emergence of the concept of evolution and its impact on biology. He then explores the rise of experimental biology, including the use of microscopes and other tools to study cells and tissues. The book also covers the development of genetics, including the discovery of the laws of inheritance and the role of chromosomes in heredity. Other topics covered in the book include the study of embryology and developmental biology, the classification of organisms, and the role of natural selection in shaping the diversity of life. Throughout the book, Hertwig emphasizes the importance of collaboration and communication among scientists in advancing the field of biology. Overall, ''The Growth of Biology in the Nineteenth Century'' provides a comprehensive and engaging account of the key developments that transformed biology into a modern scientific discipline. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science or the evolution of biological thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
