Cladistics and the Origin of Birds: A Review and Two New Analyses
In Deep Time, Henry Gee, assistant editor of Nature, shows us that everything we think we know about evolution is wrong. He also reveals the scientific proof of what came...
Principles and Methods of Phylogenetic Systematics: A Cladistics Workbook
Historical biogeography has been associated mostly with the narrative and analytical phases of taxonomy, and can similarly be divided into narrative biogeography and analytical biogeography. Narrative biogeography is the practice of ...
Cladistic Theory and Methodology
The dynamic aspect of biological systems—the birth, growth, and death of individual organisms, the evolution of one form into another over time—has formed the basis for metaphors used in many fields for both artistic and heuristic ...
