- A historical overview dedicated to Ernst Mayr on the occasion of his 100th birthday. Portrays the major aspects of evolution and how they have been shaped by the development of biology as a field and by incorporation of data from an ever broader range of biological and neighbouring disciplines. Briefly explains the various uses of "synthesis" in this context and identifies major figures involved in the process.
