TITLE: The New Scientist Magazine publishes a story about the Linnaeus apostle Daniel Rolander DATE: 4th August 2007 ARTICLE CONTENT: New Scientist journalist Stephanie Pain tells the extraordinary story about Daniel Rolander. Variously written off as a failure, a coward or a drunk, the reputation of Carl Linnaeus' protége is finally being restored. Rolander was one of 17 Swedish men who became known as the Linnaeus Apostles, hand-picked for scientific expeditions by the most famous natural scientist of the age - Carl Linnaeus. The five page article (New Scientist, 4 August 2007. p. 41-45) is based on The IK Foundation's work, The Linnaeus Apostles - Global Science & Adventure. New Scientist has a network of correspondents and seven editorial offices worldwide, with a global reach that no other science magazine can match.
