Dividing biology into disciplines: Chaos or multiformity?

Dividing biology into disciplines: Chaos or multiformity? A good division of biology is important for clarity of thought, presentation of the problems and nowadays also for science policy. Various classifications are in use, depending upon different parameters. A division can be based on objects and on aspects. A modern classification on objects is based on the levels of organisation. Methodological principles play a role in the background. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Acta Biotheoretica Springer Journals

Abstract

A good division of biology is important for clarity of thought, presentation of the problems and nowadays also for science policy. Various classifications are in use, depending upon different parameters. A division can be based on objects and on aspects. A modern classification on objects is based on the levels of organisation. Methodological principles play a role in the background.
