ESSAY ON: Alfred Russel Wallace: Reputation

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: 8 pages in length. It has been said that Alfred Russel Wallace's reputation falls far short of what his scientific achievements merit, an assertion that might be supported by evidence pointing to Wallace's spiritualist tendencies. By the same token, however, he was just as steeped within the fundamental tenets of science as any other man of factual knowledge; however, he was able to bring together these two seemingly unassociated perspectives under the umbrella of scientific understanding. This blatant departure from conventional approach had many up in arms and, therefore, quick to accuse Wallace of having no basis to his scientific assertions, to which Wallace indicated how there is more than one way to look at and consider the principles of science. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
