In this rather dense book, Lucas John Mix explores an important although overlooked concept in the history of the life sciences: the vegetable soul. This concept helped to differentiate between nonliving and living bodies from Aristotle to Darwin, as the title suggests. In other words, the vegetative soul accounts for life, a rather complex concept to define.

This concept helped to differentiate between nonliving and living bodies from Aristotle to Darwin, as the title suggests. In other words, the vegetative soul accounts for life, a rather complex concept to define.
