Georges Cuvier Libros
Georges Cuvier, una figura cumbre de las ciencias naturales de principios del siglo XIX, sentó las bases de la anatomía comparada y la paleontología. Mediante meticulosas comparaciones de especímenes vivos y fósiles, revolucionó la taxonomía al incorporar especies extintas y ampliar las clasificaciones para incluir filos. Cuvier también fue fundamental para demostrar la extinción como un hecho científico, desafiando el escepticismo contemporáneo y proponiendo teorías sobre el cambio geológico. Su influyente obra sobre estratos y formas de vida antiguas moldeó profundamente nuestra comprensión de la historia de la Tierra y la evolución de las especies.
