The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection
«The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection» (1859) — a great work, the foundation of evolutionary biology and one of the turning points in the history of science. This book convincingly and visually explains how all these remarkably...
diverse species and forms of living beings arose, so intricately adapted to their environments.
The English scientist, naturalist, traveler, and researcher Charles Darwin, based on many years of deep research, offers a scientific explanation for the diversity of species, proving their descent from common ancestors. The scientist was one of the first to identify the driving forces of the evolutionary process — variability and natural selection. Darwin details and illustrates, with numerous examples, how useful traits for survival become established in living organisms.
It is now hard to imagine what a tectonic shift was caused by the publication of this work in a world convinced of the supernatural origin of life. This book irrevocably changed not only the natural sciences but also philosophy, psychology, and public worldview, and it has become part of the golden fund of human thought.
