The main bodies of the texts are presented in chronological order, with the original footnotes and indexes gathered together at the end of the volume, along with an additional general index by prominent evolutionary biologist Edward O. Wilson that contains modern terms and concepts of the field. Wilson also includes brief introductions for the volume as a whole and for each text.
