I have said that a fifth or more of the species of plants and animals could vanish or be doomed to early extinction by the year 2020 unless better efforts are made to save them....

My generation of scientists then was able to engage in the improvement of a subject in a way that allowed a very large share of the discoveries per person. International Trade. I put all that together over a large number of species of ants to work out the first pathways of evolution that had ever been done. Was that exciting for you, that sense of discovery?
The Y Penguins was developed as a swim team for children with physical disabilities and their able-bodied siblings. Don't follow the center line.

Curiously, your book, The Insect Societies, didn't produce anything like the storm of controversy that your later work, Sociobiology, did. MacArthur and I went on, and we had long conversations and just went into the book. A book called The Future of Life, I just sent it off to the publisher about a month ago actually, and the response from my editor was, "You mention genetic engineering, and you are favorable to it in principle because you think that the increase of productivity of land already under cultivation, the introduction of a second green revolution, will take the pressure off the wild lands and be a positive force, genetic engineering for saving biodiversity. " That led to serious work in systematics as I proceeded on into graduate work, and then to studies in the caste system of ants, which are all-important in understanding the evolution and diversity of ant species, of which there are about 10, 000 known in the world. D. students in evolutionary biology here at Harvard, but I read a letter from her major professor, and it said, "Ms. X is unusual, she has a lot of grit. " So I did not become Roger Bannister.

When I came to the era of island biogeography, I realized that it was very important to base things, or to use mathematical modeling as a mode of reasoning, even if you couldn't make things as precise as you could in molecular biology or physics. So at that point, beginning my graduate work, I developed the first evolutionary history of the origin of caste systems in the ants, using a combination of the differential of growth in the larvae of the ant, and of the size frequency distribution: how many big ones and little ones there are in a colony. They were, for the first time, able to identify organic compounds at the microgram level.
