Charles Darwin the Origin of Species / Charles Darwin

Public ISBD Titre : Charles Darwin the Origin of Species Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Charles Darwin, Auteur Editeur : United Kingdom : Archives Contemporaines Année de publication : 1998 Importance : 416 p. Format : 12.6 x 19.4 x 2.0Cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-85326-780-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 942 Angleterre et pays de Galles Résumé : A grain in the balance will determine which individual shall live and which shall die...'. Darwin's theory of natural selection issued a profound challenge to orthodox thought and belief: no being or species has been specifically created, all are locked into a pitiless struggle for existence, with extinction looming for those not fitted for the task. Yet 'The Origin of the Species' (1859) is also a humane and inspirational vision of ecological interrelatedness, revealing the complex mutual interdependencies between animal and plant life, climate and physical environment, and - by implication - within the human world. Written for the general reader, in a style which combines the rigour of science with the subtlety of literature, 'The Origin of the Species' remains one of the founding documents of the modern age.
