Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. ix, 2 leaves, 974 pp. Original cloth. Initials "J. G." on half-title. Near Fine, in slightly worn dust jacket (the front flap of the dust jacket is not price-clipped!). First Edition, First Printing. SIGNED BY ERNST MAYR: "To John Gittleman/ with best wishes/ Ernst Mayr." Garrison-Morton 258.12: "An interpretive history of what Mayr calls 'ultimate' explanations in biology, reflecting Mayr's expertise in systematics, evolution, and genetics." I recommend Michael Ruse's review, which is not only a review of the book but also a review of the other reviews of the book: "Admayration. Review of The Growth of Biological Thought", The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 60, 1985, pp. 183-192. On p. 394, Mayr gives Darwin's birthdate as February 9, 1809, a mistake for February 12. This was corrected in later printings. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 17574
