In Naturalist, the author traces the trajectory of his life, detailing how his youthful fascination with nature blossomed into a lifelong calling. With sensitivity and insight, Wilson recalls the shy boy who found solace in the hidden life of swamps and woods, collecting ants and snakes, butterflies and Spanish moss. He recounts with drama and wit the adventures of his days as a student at the University of Alabama and his four decades at Harvard University, where he has achieved renown as both teacher and researcher. The story of Wilson’s life provides fascinating insights into the making of a scientist, and a valuable look at some of the most-thought provoking ideas of our time. This new edition includes an Afterword written by the author, twelve years after his phenomenal autobiography was first printed.
