Nicholas,
It took me a few hours, but I got through the beginning of the paper, now halfway through the discussion about defining homology.
Thanks for posting the paper. The approach is familiar; I'm trying to take a similar approach in the realm of philosophy of language, linguistics, and philosophy of mind
The thing that was most difficut for me was to figure out what "morphometrics" was. Now, I've tentatively defined it as "formalism of describing morphological changes during development; provides a way of classifying and comparing the changes." with key terms "shape" and "displace," which I both understand (graphically).
Is there a website you would recommend for exploring morphometrics? If not, I'll just use whatever an internet search pops up.
This is cool...
Thanks!
Ben
