John Ray (1627-1705) English Naturalist. Until 1670 he wrote his name as John Wray. His classification of plants in his Historia Plantarum was an important step towards modern taxonomy. Ray rejected the system of dichotomous division by which species were classified according to a pre-conceived, either/or type system, and instead classified plants according to similarities and differences that emerged from observation. His method advanced scientific empiricism against the deductive rationalism of the scholastics. The Complete Naturalist - A Life of Linnaeus by Wilfred Blunt, page 31.
