The Seeds of Forms and the Forms of Seeds: Narratives in Historiography and in Evolutionary Biology
暫譯: 形式的種子與種子的形式：歷史學與演化生物學中的敘事

這本專著將歷史學和演化生物學這兩個主題交織在一起，顯示這兩種活動在實踐上是類似的；它們都是在編織過去的故事，從而構建出適合特定社群當前的世界，並在必要時，將其傾斜至未來。本書介紹了這兩個歷史敘事分支的歷史和方法論，並通過案例研究來展示它們。除了歷史學家和演化生物學家的活動外，本文還質疑個別血統是否也以類似的方式構建它們的世界。本書簡要描述了生物符號學，旨在回答這一問題。它吸引了這些跨學科領域的學生和研究者。
