Research scientist John H. Rappole's lifelong journey has been in search of one thing-finding out why birds migrate. The developer and chief proponent of the "dispersal theory", Rappole takes readers on a tour of the decades-long discovery process that led him to propose a counter to the still-widely accepted weather-based theory of migration.
