We believe this is from Thomas Lovejoy's personal library inventory system. He has written his name at the head of the front free endpaper, " Tom Lovejoy New Haven, Conn. June, 1968". This book is from the collection of Thomas Lovejoy. Dr. Lovejoy was an influential ecologist, field biologist, and activist; former head of the Amazon Biodiversity Center, World Wildlife Fund, and advisor to the United Nations and Smithsonian Institution. He is credited with introducing the term biological diversity to the mainstream environmental movement. In addition, he was a passionate collector of books on the natural world. He died in 2021 and we are very excited to present a selection of his books. Please browse the entire catalogue here on ABE or contact us for instructions on how to get to it. This is an oversized book. Extra shipping may be required for international or priority shipping.
