Recenzii

"Homology is the central concept for all biology. This fine book brings together a selection of outstanding comparative biologists, all of whom have struggled to formulate a philosophical foundation for homology that has sufficient generality that it can serve all of biology." --SCIENCE, 1995
"...a fine edited collection of papers about the concept of homology..." --EVOLUTIONARY ANTHROPOLOGY, 1995
