An appropriate time to mention that Stephen J. Gould recently had a couple
of his regular columns devoted to Lamarck and Cuvier, and the
development of the idea of Vermes. For those that haven't seen them
already, and are interested in such history, they might be worth reading.
Gould, S. J. 1999. A division of worms. The use and disuse of Lamarck.—
Natural History, 108(1):18,20,22,76-81.
Gould, S. J. 1999. Branching through a wormhole. Lamarck's ladder
collapses.— Natural History, 108(2):24-27, 84-89.
