愛德華·威爾遜(Edward O.Wilson),1929年生於美國阿拉巴馬州伯明翰,1949年畢業於阿拉巴馬大學,1955年獲哈佛大學生物學博士學位,同年開始在哈佛大學執教。目前,他任教於佩萊格裏諾大學(Unuversnty of Pellegrino),並為哈佛大學的昆蟲學研究員。
威爾遜是當今美國生物學翹楚。他於1969年當選為美國國傢科學院院士,獲過全世界最高的環境生物學奬項,包括美國的國傢科學奬、瑞典皇傢科學院頒發的剋拉負德奬(Craford Prize)。1996年,威爾遜被《時代》雜誌評為對當代美國影響最大的25位美國人之一。
威爾遜擅長著述,曾以《論人性》(On Human Nature)和《螞蟻》(The Ant)兩度獲普利策奬。
InNaturalist, Wilson describes for the first time both
his growth as a scientist and the evolution of the science
he has helped def ine. He traces the trajectory of
his life—from a childhood spent exploring the Gulf
oast of Alabama and Florida to life as a tenured
professor at Harvard—detailing how his youthful
fascination with nature blossomed into a lifelong
calling. 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.
As the narrative of Wilson's life unfolds, the reader is treated to an
inside look at the origin and development of ideas that guide today's
biological research. Theories that are now widely accepted in the scientific
world were once untested hypotheses emerging from one man's
broad-gauged studies. Throughout Naturalist, we see Wilson's mind
and energies constantly striving to help establish many of the central
principles of the field of evolutionary biology.
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.

評分这2天读完了美国昆虫学家爱德华威尔逊的自传《大自然的猎人》。真好。厚厚的一本书,用了3天时间,每天一想到有这本书可以读,就格外高兴。(先前看他总是提起对蚂蚁的研究,翻出前一段看的《蚂蚁的故事》,啊,他竟然就是作者之一:爱德华·O·威尔逊是哈佛佩莱格里诺大学教授...
評分《大自然的猎人》是博物学家爱德华·威尔逊(1929—)的自传,初版问世于1994年。那一年,威尔逊获得了佩莱格里诺教职,那是哈佛大学仅15个全校教职之一,目的是保证教学达到的广度。新近的中文版封面上,威尔逊拈起一只昆虫,凑近眼前,仔细观察。我以为这是在表达科学家的专...
