Focusing on Wallace’s significant contribution to the emergence of anthropology, Limeira-DaSilva traces the peripatetic trajectory of Wallace’s field work, from his humble beginnings in the suburbs of London to his travels through the Brazilian Amazon and Asia.
A man of many talents—naturalist, geographer, anthropologist, and political commentator—Alfred Russel Wallace made seminal contributions to biology in the nineteenth century, playing a pivotal role in developing the theory of evolution through natural selection, which preceded Darwin’s famous tome, The Origin of Species.
