Content:
Wallace, Darwin, and the Origin of Species also reexamines the pivotal episode in 1858 when Wallace sent Darwin a manuscript announcing his discovery of natural selection, prompting a joint public reading of the two men’s papers on the subject. Costa’s analysis of the "Species Notebook" shines a new light on these readings, further illuminating the independent nature of Wallace’s discoveries.
