There are also problems with the current definitions or circumscriptions of key concepts such as gene, species, and homology, and even of whole disciplinary fields within the life sciences, e.g. developmental biology. These contrasting views are arguably a symptom of the need to revisit traditional, unchallenged partitions between the specialist disciplines within the life sciences. In the diversity of topics addressed and approaches to move beyond the current disciplinary organization, the five essays in this volume will hopefully stimulate further exploration towards an improved articulation of life sciences. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aactive inference 610 $aanchor concept 610 $aanchor discipline 610 $aattention 610 $abiomorphics 610 $abiosystematics 610 $adevelopment 610 $adevelopmental genetics 610 $aevo-devo 610 $aevolution 610 $aevolutionary developmental biology 610 $aevolutionary extended synthesis 610 $aflower 610 $ageneration 610 $ahomology 610 $aland plant phylogeny 610 $alanguage 610 $alife cycle 610 $amemory 610 $amorphological misfits 610 $an/a 610 $anomadic concept 610 $anomadic discipline 610 $anumerical taxonomy 610 $aorganizational module 610 $aphyllotaxis 610 $aphylogenetics 610 $aplant structure ontology 610 $apragmatics 610 $aprocess philosophy 610 $areference frames 610 $aresearch programs 610 $ascale-free cognition 610 $ascientific perspectivism 610 $ascientific pluralism 610 $aself 610 $aspecies 610 $astigmergy 610 $ataxonomic pluralisms 610 $ataxonomic theory 610 $atheory of development 610 $atypology 610 $aUtricularia 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aMinelli$b Alessandro$4edt$07718 702 $aMinelli$b Alessandro$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557403103321 996 $aRenegotiating Disciplinary Fields in the Life Sciences$93038518 997 $aUNINA
