The analogistic tradition from Anaximander to Bonnet : The seeds of recapitulation in Greek science? ; Ontogeny and phylogeny in the conflict of "evolution" and epigenesist: the idyll of Charles Bonnet -- 3. Transcendental origins, 1793-1860 : Naturphilosophie: an expression of developmentalism ; Two leading recapitulationists among the naturphilosophen: Oken and Meckel : Oken's classification of animals by linear additions of organs ; J.F. Meckel's sober statement of the same principles. Serres and the French transcendentalists : Recapitulation and the theory of developmental arrests.

Louis Agassiz and the threefold parallelism -- 4. Evolutionary triumph, 1859-1900 : Evolutionary theory and zoological practice : Darwin and the evolution of Von Baer's laws ; Evolution and the mechanics of recapitulation. Ernst Haeckel: phylogeny as the mechanical cause of ontogeny: The mechanism of recapitulation. The American neo-Lamarckians: the law of acceleration as evolution's motor : Progressive evolution by acceleration ; The extent of parallelism ; Why does recapitulation dominate the history of life? ; Alpheus Hyatt and universal acceleration. Lamarckism and the memory analogy ; Recapitulation and Darwinism -- 5. Pervasive influence : Criminal anthropology ; Racism ; Child development ; Primary education ; Freudian psychoanalysis -- 6. Decline, fall, and generalization : A clever argument ; An empirical critique : Organs or ancestors: the transformation of Haeckel's heterochrony ; Interpolations into juvenile stages ; Introduction of juvenile features into the adults of descendants. What had become of von Baer's critique? ; Benign neglect: recapitulation and the rise of experimental embryology : The prior assumptions of recapitulation ; Wilhelm his and his physiological embryology:
    7. Heterochrony and the parallel of ontogeny and phylogeny : Acceleration and retardation : Confusion in and after Haeckel's wake ; Guidelines for a resolution.

A clock model of heterochrony -- 8. The ecological and evolutionary significance of heterochrony : The argument from frequency : The importance of recapitulation ; The importance of heterochronic change: selected cases ; Frequency of paedomorphosis in the origin of higher taxa. A critique of the classical significance of heterochrony : The classical arguments ; Retrospective and immediate significance. Heterochrony, ecology, and life-history strategies ; The potential ease and rapidity of heterochronic change : The control of metamorphosis in insects ; Amphibian paedomorphosis and the thyroid gland -- 9. Progenesis and neoteny : Insect progenesis : Prothetely and metathetely ; Paedogenesis (parthenogenetic progenesis) in gall midges and beetles ; Progenesis in wingless, parthogenetic aphids ; Additional cases of progenesis with a similar ecological basis ; Neotenic solitary locusts: are they an exception to the rule?. Amphibian neoteny ; The ecological determinants of progenesis : Unstable environments ; Colonization ; Parasites ; Male dispersal ; Progenesis as an adaptive response to pressures for small size.
