Overview

The Distribution of Life explores the geographical distribution of animals and plants, a field pioneered by Alfred Russel Wallace. This seminal work delves into the factors influencing species distribution, including climate, geology, and evolutionary history. Wallace, co-discoverer of natural selection, brings his profound understanding of evolutionary principles to bear on the patterns of life across the globe. The book covers a wide range of topics, from the distribution of mammals and birds to the unique flora of specific regions. It offers insights into the relationships between different species and their environments, as well as the historical processes that have shaped the world's ecosystems. This volume will be of great interest to students and researchers studying biogeography, evolution, and ecology.
