On the Origin of Speciesby Means of Natural Selection. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Charles Darwin - Diamond Book Publishing, 2019 -
Charles Darwin's groundbreaking work of evolutionary biology, "The Origin of Species" introduces the scientific theory of evolution, which posits that species evolve over a period of many generations through a process of natural selection. Considered controversial even to this day because of its contradicting position to creationist theory, Darwin's theories have been widely embraced by the scientific community as fact and have laid the foundation for subsequent major advances in the field of biology. "The Origin of Species" is arguably one of the most important scientific treatises ever written.
The Voyage of the BeagleA Voyage of Discovery. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Charles Darwin - Diamond Book Publishing, 2019 -
Charles Darwin's account of the momentous voyage which set in motion the current of intellectual events leading to The Origin of Species. When HMS Beagle sailed out of Devonport on 27 December 1831, Charles Darwin was twenty-two and setting off on the voyage of a lifetime. His journal, here reprinted in a shortened form, shows a naturalist making patient observations concerning geology, natural history, people, places and events. Volcanoes in the Galapagos, the Gossamer spider of Patagonia and the Australasian coral reefs - all are to be found in these extraordinary writings. The insights made here were to set in motion the intellectual currents that led to the theory of evolution, and the most controversial book of the Victorian age: The Origin of Species.
