SUMMARY

"To have begun to know Ed Ricketts even a little--whether as the satyr-god of Cannery Row, pioneering ecologist and marine biologist, magical Steinbeck character, co-author of a classic 'voyage of discovery, ' or legendary friend and mentor of the great--is to want to know more."--From the foreword by Susan F. Beegel, editor of "The Hemingway Review "This biography and collection is invaluable for those seeking to understand all about Ed Ricketts, not as Steinbeck's "Doc," but as the complex, visionary thinker and scientist that he was. Rodger gives us Ricketts's seminal writings, some for the first time in print, that reveal his lifelong struggle to come to grips with the complexities of marine ecology at all levels. Today's researchers would do well to try and grasp his prescient, holistic ideas about the universal connections linking organisms, species, communities, and their environment."--William F. Gilly, Hopkins Marine Station of Stanford UniversityRicketts, Edward Flanders is the author of 'Breaking Through Essays, Journals, And Travelogues of Edward F. Ricketts', published 2006 under ISBN 9780520247048 and ISBN 0520247043.
