About The Author: John Christopher Willis (1868–1954) was an English botanist renowned for his **Age and Area** hypothesis, which emphasized species distribution over natural selection in evolution. He challenged traditional Darwinian views, advocating that geographical age, not just survival, shaped species spread. Willis authored key botanical works, including *A Manual and Dictionary of the Flowering Plants and Ferns* (1908), and extensively studied plant morphology, ecology, and biogeography, particularly in regions like Ceylon, India, and New Zealand. His later works, such as *The Course of Evolution by Differentiation* (1940), reflected his belief in divergent mutation as a driving evolutionary force.
