How was the universe created? Who made us? What makes us so distinct from other creatures on this Earth? Eminent naturalist Charles Darwin attempted to answer these questions in the early 19th century.
In 1831, Charles Darwin left Plymouth Harbor aboard the HMS Beagle. During the next five years, he conducted research on plants and animals from around the world, collecting key evidence and making detailed notes. Through his studies he discovered one of the greatest biological phenomenon that changed the course of mankind-evolution.
Twenty eight years later, he finally published his findings in The Origin of Species, a revolutionary work of scientific literature that laid down the foundations for evolutionary biology. In the book Darwin argues that all species evolve through a process of ‘natural selection’, adapting to their changing environment to ensure survival; this leads to the birth of new species and the transformation of the old.
Lucid, cerebral, and utterly riveting, The Origin of Species is amongst the greatest works of scientific imagination.
