Prologue 'As the study of natural science advances, the language of scientific
description may be greatly simplified and abridged. This has already been done by
Linneaus and may be carried still further by other invention. The descriptions of
natural orders and genera may be reduced to short definitions, and employment of
signs, somewhat in the manner of algebra, instead of long descriptions. It is
more easy to conceive this, than it is to conceive with what facility, and in how
short a time, a knowledge of all the objects of natural history may ultimately be
acquired; and that which is now considered learning and science, and confined to
a few specially devoted to it, may at length be universally possessed in every
civilized country and in every rank of life'. J. C. Louden 1829. Magazine of
natural history, vol. 1: This article is part of the themed issue 'From DNA
barcodes to biomes'.
