Item Details

Description

1896 Darwin Origin of Species + Observations Volcanic Islands Geology Evolution

“Let the strongest live and the weakest die.”

― Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species

During the 19th-century, few scientists and biologists had as significant and long-lasting impact on scientific discovery as Charles Darwin. His contributions to the science of evolution with natural selection, survival of the fittest, and biological explanation have cemented him as a cornerstone in the world of biology and natural science.

Following the successes of his second voyage on the ‘Beagle’, Darwin published ‘Geological Observations on the Volcanic Islands’ - one of the most important works of geology from the mid-19th-century. This book recounts many of Darwin’s findings and discoveries in Cape Verde, Ascension Island, Saint Helena, and the Galapagos Islands. It also was one of the first books to discuss the physical change and melting process of magma and volcanic eruption.

This 1896 American edition includes “the most wonderful piece in the history of science”, “On the Origin of Species”.
