Georges Cuvier Livres
Georges Cuvier, figure majeure des sciences naturelles du début du XIXe siècle, a établi les principes fondamentaux de l'anatomie comparée et de la paléontologie. Par des comparaisons méticuleuses d'échantillons vivants et de fossiles, il a révolutionné la taxonomie en intégrant les espèces éteintes et en élargissant les classifications pour inclure les phyla. Cuvier a également joué un rôle déterminant en prouvant l'extinction comme un fait scientifique, défiant le scepticisme contemporain et proposant des théories sur le changement géologique. Son œuvre influente sur les strates et les formes de vie anciennes a profondément façonné notre compréhension de l'histoire de la Terre et de l'évolution des espèces.
