Více o knize

Focusing on the theory of evolution, this work by Charles Darwin presents his revolutionary ideas based on observations from his voyage on the HMS Beagle and studies of selective breeding. He proposes that all species share a common ancestor and evolve through natural selection, challenging contemporary creationist views. Despite initial controversy, his theories gained acceptance and significantly influenced biology, laying the groundwork for future scientific advancements. This edition features an introduction by Charles W. Eliot and is printed on high-quality acid-free paper.
