Flight of the dodo.
The evolutionary history of the dodo is very poorly understood. Like many avian island endemics, a high degree of morphological change associated with flightlessness and gigantism has obscured phylogenetic relationships, and historically the dodo has been linked with avian groups ranging from the ratites to the raptors (1). Since the mid1800s, morphological studies have linked the dodo (initial...

I have purchased updated editions over the years; indeed I own a copy of the updated ...
متن کاملArtificial intelligence & genetics
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the development of computer systems that are able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging tool that enables people to rethink how we integrate information, analyze data, and use the resulting insights to improve decision making—and already it is transforming every walk of life. AI has application...
متن کاملAssembling the dodo in early modern natural history.
This paper explores the assimilation of the flightless dodo into early modern natural history. The dodo was first described by Dutch sailors landing on Mauritius in 1598, and became extinct in the 1680s or 1690s. Despite this brief period of encounter, the bird was a popular subject in natural-history works and a range of other genres. The dodo will be used here as a counterexample to the histo...
