Darwin's masterpiece helped shaped the cultural landscape of the world
today. Now in a digestible, pocket format for the modern reader.
Initially received with muted applause, Darwin's The Origin of Species
by Means of Natural Selection was soon recognised as the breakthrough
scientific advance that explained the evidence of the world around us,
the place and history of humans, the connections between environment and
evolution. Still regarded by some as radical, Darwin's contribution to
world knowledge is immeasurable. This new, popular edition has been
edited for the modern reader, to introduce Darwin's research in a
digestible form.
The FLAME TREE Foundations series features core publications which
together have shaped the cultural landscape of the modern world, with
cutting-edge research distilled into pocket guides designed to be both
accessible and informative.
