Book excerpt: “An illuminating, humanizing portrait of a famous scientist.” —Booklist, starred review All his life, Charles Darwin hated controversy. Yet he takes his place among the Giants of Science for what remains an immensely controversial subject: the theory of evolution. Darwin began piecing together his explanation for how all living things change or adapt during his five-year voyage on HMS Beagle. But it took him twenty years to go public, for fear of the backlash his theory would cause. Once again, Kathleen Krull delivers a witty and astute picture of one of history's greatest scientists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species is unquestionably one of the chief landmarks in biology. The Origin (as it is widely known) was literally only an abstract of the manuscript Darwin had originally intended to complete and publish as the formal presentation of his views on evolution. Compared with the Origin, his original long manuscript work on Natural Selection, which is presented here and made available for the first time in printed form, has more abundant examples and illustrations of Darwin's argument, plus an extensive citation of sources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **** BCL3 cites other editions of parts of the complete works here in progress (Volumes 21 to 29 are due for release in Sept. 1989). This group of ten volumes contains: A monograph of the sub-class Cirripedia (still an essntial reference to cirripedists), 3v.; Monographs of the fossil Lepadidae, 1v.; On the origin of species, 1859, and 1876 (the 6th ed. with omission of the initial "On"), one volume each; The various contrivances by which orchids are fertilized by insects, 1v.; Movements and habits of climbing plants, 1v.; and Variation of animals and plants under domestication, 2v. This noble undertaking will make available many titles that have been OP for decades. The importance of Darwin to the history of thought--in science, society, religion, philosophy--needs no elaboration. His place in 19th c. literature is demonstrated by Gaustreg's remarks upon the frequent reprinting, translations, and continual revisions of certain titles during Darwin's life. The first ten volumes were annotated in RandR, April 1988. The chief failing of this splendid set is in the poor quality of the reproduction of most illustrations (a minor part of volumes 11-20).

Download or read book The Book That Changed America written by Randall Fuller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling portrait of a unique moment in American history when the ideas of Charles Darwin reshaped American notions about nature, religion, science and race “A lively and informative history.” – The New York Times Book Review Throughout its history America has been torn in two by debates over ideals and beliefs. Randall Fuller takes us back to one of those turning points, in 1860, with the story of the influence of Charles Darwin’s just-published On the Origin of Species on five American intellectuals, including Bronson Alcott, Henry David Thoreau, the child welfare reformer Charles Loring Brace, and the abolitionist Franklin Sanborn. Each of these figures seized on the book’s assertion of a common ancestry for all creatures as a powerful argument against slavery, one that helped provide scientific credibility to the cause of abolition. Darwin’s depiction of constant struggle and endless competition described America on the brink of civil war. But some had difficulty aligning the new theory to their religious convictions and their faith in a higher power. Thoreau, perhaps the most profoundly affected all, absorbed Darwin’s views into his mysterious final work on species migration and the interconnectedness of all living things. Creating a rich tableau of nineteenth-century American intellectual culture, as well as providing a fascinating biography of perhaps the single most important idea of that time, The Book That Changed America is also an account of issues and concerns still with us today, including racism and the enduring conflict between science and religion.
