Reviews

With Narrow Roads Volume 3, the editor and co-authors have ably complemented an orphaned autobiographic series, while simultaneously including relevant personal recollections. After these 'Last Words' of the closely involved, we now wait for the first independent Hamilton biography. Trends in Ecology and Evolution, Vol.21 No.12.
