Zoology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (551 words) |
 | Zoology (Greek zoon = animal and logos = word) is the biological discipline which involves the study of animals. |
| The real dawn of zoology after the legendary period of the Middle Ages is connected with the name of an Englishman, Edward Edward Wotton, born at Oxford in 1492, who practised as a physician in London and died in 1555. |
| The most ready means of noting the progress of zoology during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries is to compare Aristotle's classificatory conceptions of successive naturalists with those which are to be found in the works of Caldon. |
