Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on Wallace's extensive observations, this collection features essays that explore equatorial vegetation, animal life, and sexual selection. Born in Wales in 1823, Wallace's passion for natural history led him to the Amazon rainforest, where he spent four years studying its diverse ecosystems and cultures. His experiences there shaped his ideas on evolution, culminating in his co-discovery of natural selection alongside Darwin. This work highlights his significant contributions to natural sciences and evolutionary theory, enriched by a new introductory biography.
