Hello @gentleshaid, thanks for stopping by and visiting. I do agree with you. Plus, he was not of the middle class and I think middle class scientists might have found him more off-putting than Darwin.

As least now my readers know about him.

Hope you have a great day!

Actually, I know about Wallace since my secondary school days. I got to know about his work in detail during my undergraduate. Just that I have never really sat down to think about him and Darwin in this light.

Believe me, there are so many issues in science mirroring this Darwin-Wallace issue or even worse. A colleague of mine made my research his and only mentioned me as a co-author in the research journal.
