Stiff Wraps. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. It's hard to talk about The Origin of Species without making statements that seem overwrought and fulsome. But it's true: this is indeed one of the most important and influential books ever written, and it is one of the very few groundbreaking works of science that is truly readable. To a certain extent it suffers from the Hamlet problem--it's full of clichés! Or what are now clichés, but which Darwin was the first to pen. Natural selection, variation, the struggle for existence, survival of the fittest: it's all in here. Darwin's friend and bulldog T.H. Huxley said upon reading the Origin, How extremely stupid of me not to have thought of that. Alfred Russel Wallace had thought of the same theory of evolution Darwin did, but it was Darwin who gathered the mass of supporting evidence--on domestic animals and plants, on variability, on sexual selection, on dispersal--that swept most scientists before it. It's hardly necessary to mention that the book is still controversial: Darwin's remark in his conclusion that Light will be thrown on the origin of man and his history is surely the pinnacle of British understatement. --Mary Ellen Curtin This book was at one time owned by a library, however, with the exception of a stamp at the end of the book there are none of the usual library markings.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Charles Darwin -- alongside Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein -- ranks among the world's most famous scientists. In popular imagination, he peers at us from behind a bush white beard. But this image crowds out the vital younger man whose curiosity, risk-taking, and travels aboard H.M.S. Beagle's voyage is frequently misunderstood, its mission and geographical breadth often unacknowledged. The voyage's activities associated with South America -- particularly its stop in the Galapagos archipelago, off Ecuador's coast -- eclipse the fact that the Beagle, sailing through the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans, also circumnavigated the globe. Mere happenstance placed Darwin aboard the Beagle. He was only twenty-two years old -- an unproven, unknown, aspiring geologist -- and brought aboard as a last-minute request by the depression-prone ship's captain Robert FitzRoy. Over the course of the Beagle's five-year voyage, Darwin, filled with curiosity about his new environments, conducted overland excursions and explorations. Those outings, lasting weeks, even months, took him across mountains, pampas, rainforests, and deserts. An expert horseman and marksman, he won the admiration of gauchos he encountered along the way, collected countless specimens, and made colorful, often opinionated, observations about the places and people he encountered. Acclaimed historian Tom Chaffin reveals a passionate young Darwin in all his complexities -- the brashness that came from his privileged background, the Faustian bargain he made with Argentina's notorious caudillo Juan Manuel de Rosas, his abhorrence of slavery, his time with Indigenous communities, and his ambition to carve himself a place amongst his era's celebrated travelers and intellectual giants. Drawing on a rich array of sources, Chaffin crafts an evocative and epic narrative that surpasses in breadth and intimacy the naturalist's own Voyage of the Beagle -- one that brings Darwin's odyssey to vivid life.
