'Here, Muller presented a detailed review of what was known about speciation genetics at that time. Muller's article, however, is more than a review. He anticipated several developments in speciation genetics that would be rediscovered five or six decades later. Although neglected by CARLSON (1981) and most other accounts of Muller's contributions, this article represents a foundation for research on the genetics of speciation' (Norman A Johnson, 'Sixty years after 'Isolating Mechanisms, Evolution and Temperature': Muller's legacy', Genetics, July 2002; 161(3): 939 944. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1946 was awarded to Hermann Joseph Muller 'for the discovery of the production of mutations by means of X-ray irradiation.'. Seller Inventory # 25065
