A historically valuable text that contributed massively to the development of evolutionary biography. This landmark work showed that classification can combine the fields of ecology, embryology, palaeontology and biogeography to give a complete view of species.

A major influence on the development of American scientific culture, Swiss-born Louis Agassiz (1807–73) was one of the great scientists of his day. A student of anatomist Georges Cuvier, Agassiz adapted his teacher's pioneering techniques of comparative anatomy to paleontology, and he rose to prominence as a distinguished systematist, paleontologist, and educator. Agassiz introduced science to ordinary citizens to an unprecedented degree; people around the world read his books, sent him specimens, and consulted his opinion. Agassiz was also a staunch opponent of the theory of evolution, and he was among the last of the reputable scientists who continued to reject the concept after the publication of The Origin of the Species. All of nature bore testimony to a divine plan, Agassiz believed, and he could not reconcile himself to a theory that did not invoke God's design. Ironically, his 1851 Essay on Classification provided Darwin and other evolutionists with evidence from the fossil record to support the theory of natural selection. A treasure of historically valuable insights that contributed to the development of evolutionary biology, this volume introduced the landmark contention that paleontology, embryology, ecology, and biogeography are inextricably linked in classifications that reveal the true relationships between organisms. Its emphasis on advanced and original work gave major impetus to the study of science directly from nature, and it remains a classic of American scientific literature.

Excerpt from Essay on Classification Having, however, made no essential alterations in this Essay on Classification, it may not be out of place for me to repeat here such parts of the preface to the first edition as may explain the special purpose of the treatise, and also the frequent allusions, which could not have been omitted without remodelling the whole, referring to chapters which belong to other parts of the work. The preface to the complete work above alluded to states that, in consequence of the liberality of the subscription in America, "this volume, which, according to the original plan, was designed to be one of special descriptive Zoology, contains, in addition to a description of the North American Turtles, a review of the classification of the whole animal kingdom. I have also endeavoured to make it a text-book of reference for the student, in which he may find notices of all that has been accomplished in the various departments of Natural History alluded to, and which I trust young naturalists will take, not only as an indication of what has been done, but as an earnest of what remains to be done in the fields now open to our investigation.
