Following the successful pattern of previous Story of ... titles, The Story of Biology traces the development of biology from its origins in myths invented to explain the wonders and perils of the natural world, through the first attempts at empirical investigation, to the highly structured and technical discipline it has become today. The book focuses on the personalities, studies and theories that have led to our current understanding of the natural world.
