Natural Selection and Beyond: The Intellectual Legacy of Alfred Russel Wallace, a book about Wallace which I co-edited with Charles Smith, has just been released in paperback form - see http://ukcatalogue.oup.com/product/academic/science/9780199239177.do?zoneCode=HPZC001 It was first published as a hardback in 2008 and I presume it must have sold well enough for the publishers (Oxford University Press) to decide to bring out a paperback edition. The book is described in the advertising blurb as follows: "This rich collection of writings by more than twenty historians and scientists reviews and reflects on the work that made Wallace a famous man in his own time, and a figure of extraordinary influence and continuing interest today." and if you want a copy then it is available for only £16.54 on Amazon - see http://www.amazon.co.uk/Natural-Selection-Beyond-Intellectual-Wallace/dp/0199239177/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1268469306&sr=1-3 I notice, however, that the hardback has come down in price and is now only around £24 on Amazon (see http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/0199239169/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&qid=1268469306&sr=1-4&condition=new), so it might be worth buying this edition instead! The only aspect of the paperback edition which is better, is that a number of minor errors which were present in the original edition have been corrected by Charles and I.
