We explore how biologists turn the messy diversity of life into a coherent map. Starting with Linnaeus's hierarchical system and binomial names, through Darwin's evolution, to cladistics and DNA-based phylogenies, and finally the naming codes and debates over ranks. A clear, engaging tour of how taxonomy shapes biology.
