Critical of ARW's understanding of the economy of nature.
Hooker states that he will re-read ARW's 1853 book about the Amazon as he doesn't recall it interesting him at all when it was first published.
ARW listed along with Hooker, Huxley, Lubbock and Bates as the "only honest downright "flat-footed" men in all England!!!".
