Rezension zu „The Species Seekers: Heroes, Fools, and the Mad Pursuit of Life on Earth “
Modern biology and medicine would not be what they are today if not for the death-defying naturalists who set out to travel the world and find new species. In The Species Seekers, Richard Conniff creates a marvelous rogues gallery of these brave, sometimes reckless heroes of taxonomy, full of surprising tales of gorillas, platypuses, and disease-laden mosquitoes. --Carl Zimmer, author of "Parasite Rex"
