Island Life

Island Life: Or The Phenomena And Causes Of Insular Faunas And Floras is a book written by Alfred Russel Wallace, a British naturalist and biologist, in 1880. The book explores the unique characteristics of island ecosystems, including the flora and fauna that inhabit them. Wallace discusses the various factors that contribute to the evolution and adaptation of species on isolated islands, such as geographical isolation, climate, and competition for resources. He also examines the differences between island and mainland species, and the ways in which island life has influenced the development of scientific theories about evolution and natural selection. Island Life is considered a seminal work in the field of biogeography and remains a valuable resource for scientists and researchers studying island ecosystems.Including A Revision And Attempted Solution Of The Problem Of Geological Climates.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
