Description: DARWINS ORIGIN OF SPECIES By Janet Browne Brand New Hardcover Book with Dust Jacket, unused, excellent new conditionFrom the publisher: No book has changed our understanding of ourselves and our place in the universe more than Darwin's Origin of Species. It caused a sensation on its publication in 18 59, selling out in one day and going on to become an international bestseller. The idea that living things gradually evolve through natural selection profoundly shocked its Victorian readers, calling into question the ancient, unshakeable belief in a divine Creator. In this book, Janet Browne, Charles Darwin's foremost biographer, shows why Origin of Species can fairly claim to be the greatest science book ever published. She describes the genesis of Darwin's theories, explains how they were initially received and examines why they remain so important - and contentious - today. Her book is a marvel-lously readable account of the work that altered forever our knowledge of what it is to be human. our books are not returnable
