Edition Notes

Caption title.

Offprint from: Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, v. 93, 31 May 2006.

"The current picture of the history of taxonomy incorporates A.J. Cain's claim that Linnaeus strove to apply the logical method of definition taught by the medieval followers of Aristotle. Cain's argument does not stand up to critical examination" (from the Abstract). Winsor also discusses Ernst Mayr's views on the subject.
