And do we need new "apostles," adventurous and curious generalists who defy categorization by scientific discipline, motivated above all to share with the world their rich observations?   The extraordinary compilation of the Linnaeus Apostles will mean different things to different readers. It has enabled me to recognise my small part in the continuing saga of my chosen science of plant taxonomy and phytogeography. As I relished each volume of The Linnaeus Apostles cover to cover, I marvelled at how their lives and ours are braided together.   The geographical span of the journeys of the apostles can most easily be seen in iMAPS - added to the www.iLinnaeus.org 2 April 2013. iFellowship it's free and important.
