Natural Selection and Beyond by Smith

Natural Selection and Beyond by Smith

Alfred Russel Wallace was one of the nineteenth century's most potent intellectual forces. In this rich and varied collection, writers from a range of fields explore Wallace's work - and influence today - as biologist, collector, and a Victorian deeply engaged with the social, political, and philosophical issues of the age.
