Reviews
From the reviews: "Haffer's book is clearly ... for historians and philosophers of science, for evolutionary and other biologists with an interest in one of the eminent personalities in their field in the 20th century, and for advanced students in biology and philosophy, which already have a background in the philosophy and history of evolutionary biology. ... a fascinating piece of historical analysis and description. It is now and will always be the initial point for any historical work on Ernst Mayr ... ." (Michael Ohl, Zoosystematics and Evolution, Vol. 84 (2), 2008) "To provide both a biography of Ernst Mayr and an interpretive overview of his scientific contributions in a single book is a daunting task, but Jrgen Haffer succeeds admirably. ... Throughout the book, Haffer blends a chronology of Mayr's personal life with an analytical review of his contributions to various disciplines. ... The book is a good read for anyone interested in evolutionary ideas, in how science progresses, or in the career of an amazing scientist." (M. Ross Lein, Ibis, Vol. 150, 2008) "In Ornithology, Evolution, and Philosophy, Jrgen Haffer chronicles Mayr's life and his research. ...the book will be useful not only to Mayr scholars but also to anyone wishing to understand the progress of evolutionary biology through the last century." (Trevor Price, Bioscience, Vol. 54 (2), February, 2009) "Jrgen Haffer opens his biography of Ernst Mayr with an overview of his elegant, comprehensive work: the ornithologist, evolutionist and historian/philosopher of biology is described in detail. ... Haffer's monograph ... will become a classic in the literature on the history of twentieth century biology. ... This first biography, which contains many unpublished photographs such as a picture showing 'the three Mayr brothers in Kempten (Allgu, Bavaria), August 1907,' will certainly open a series of books on Ernst Mayr and his outstanding scientific achievements." (U. Kutschera, Evolution: Education and Outreach, Vol. 2 (3), 2009), "... Jürgen Haffer has done a terrific job, well written and accessible to a ... wide audience." (Niles Eldredge, Curator, American Museum of Natural History, New York, NY, USA), From the reviews: "Haffer's book is clearly ... for historians and philosophers of science, for evolutionary and other biologists with an interest in one of the eminent personalities in their field in the 20th century, and for advanced students in biology and philosophy, which already have a background in the philosophy and history of evolutionary biology. ... a fascinating piece of historical analysis and description.
