Edward O. Wilson.
I entered Duquesne University to pursue studies in Chemistry and Biology but I soon changed my mind. In fact, before the school year started I visited Fr. Joseph Moroney, Dean of Arts and Sciences, and changed my major and minor. The Dean tried to persuade me not to do it, but I was pigheaded. Did I do right? When reading Naturalist, by Edward O.

You will not regret it. And for a treat check this interview: video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-45154219728824809.
