“Lennart Jeppsson gave a nice illustration of this disconnection between material reality (specimens) and immaterial belief (species): “One specimen = one species; two specimens = two species; 100 specimens = one species.”

“One could understand why so many scientists doubted the validity of books. As vehicles by which progress is made, they have the unfortunate effect of producing a freeze-frame image that is then left to drift into the future, giving the illusion of still being current. The scientific book is an impossibility; almost immediately it is a history book.”
