Difficulties of Development as Applied to Man

Focusing on evolutionary theory, this work delves into the complexities of human development. Alfred Russel Wallace, a pivotal figure in natural sciences, drew inspiration from his extensive travels, particularly his four-year exploration of the Amazon rainforest. During this journey, he meticulously documented the diverse cultures, languages, and ecosystems he encountered. His reflections on evolution culminated in a groundbreaking theory of natural selection, shared with Charles Darwin in 1858, solidifying his legacy in the field.
