Explores how the concept of "compound individuality" brought together life scientists working in pre-Darwinian London. Elwick relates the growth and decline of questions about compound individuality to wider nineteenth-century debates about research standards and causality. He uses specific technical case studies to address overarching themes of reason and scientific method.
