The Philosophy of Biology: An Episodic History - Paperback

by David DePew (Author), Marjorie Grene (Author), Gary Hatfield (Editor)

Does life (for the living) differ from that of the non-living? If so, how? And how, in that case, does biology as the study of living things differ from other sciences? These questions are examined through an exploration of episodes in the history of biology and philosophy.
