The complex idea of 'species' has evolved over time, yet its meaning is far from resolved. This comprehensive work takes a fresh look at an idea central to the field of biology by tracing its history since antiquity. It explores the essentialist view, a staple of logic from Plato and Aristotle through the Middle Ages to fairly recent times.
