Alfred Russel Wallace was one of the nineteenth century's most potent intellectual forces.

Klappentext zu „Natural Selection and Beyond “
Alfred Russel Wallace (1823 - 1913) was one of the late nineteenth centurys most potent intellectual forces. At the time of his death, he was probably the most famous scientist in the world, and his link to Darwin as co-discoverer of the principle of natural selection alone would have secured him a place in history. However, the full range of his intellectual legacy has not - until now - been widely appreciated. In this book, twenty scientists and historians reflect on Wallaces enduring contributions to biology and natural history, to glaciology, anthropology and epidemiology, to socialism, and human rights, and - controversially - to spiritualism.
