Bibliography of biology

[1][2] Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, distribution, and taxonomy.

This section contains a list of works in ecology,[14] the scientific study of the relations that living organisms have with respect to each other and their natural environment.

[15] This section contains a list of works on evolution,[16] the change across successive generations in the heritable characteristics of biological populations.

It is no exaggeration to claim that virtually all the well-known writers of the Enlightenment, and even of later generations, in France as well as in other European countries were Buffonians, either directly or indirectly.

This section contains a list of works on genetics, the science of genes, heredity, and variation in living organisms.
