Reflections on the history of systematics / Willi Hennig's part in the history of systematics / Homology as a bridge between evolutionary morphology, developmental evolution, and phylogenetic systematics / Historical and conceptual perspectives on modern systematics : groups, ranks, and the phylogenetic turn / The early cladogenesis of cladistics / Cladistics at an earlier time / Patterson's curse, molecular homology, and the data matrix / History and theory in the development of phylogenetics in botany : toward the future / Well-structured biology : numerical taxonomy's epistemic vision for systematics / A comparison of alternative form-characterization : approaches to the automated identification of biological species / The new systematics, the new taxonomy, and the future of biodiversity studies / Robert E. Kohler -- Michael Schmitt -- Manfred D. Laubichler -- Andrew Hamilton -- Olivier Rieppel -- Gareth Nelson -- David M. Williams and Malte C. Ebach -- Brent D. Mishler -- Beckett Sterner -- Norman MacLeod -- Quentin Wheeler and Andrew Hamilton.
This title aims to make sense of the rise of phylogenetic systematics - its methods, its objects of study, and its theoretical foundations - with contributions from historians, philosophers, and biologists.
