A new, deluxe hardcover edition of one of the most important scientific works ever written

In December 1831, Charles Darwin boarded the HMS Beagle, accompanying her crew on a five-year journey that crossed the Atlantic Ocean to survey the coasts of South America. As the expedition's geologist and naturalist, Darwin collected evidence from the Galapagos Islands and other locations which prompted him to speculate that species evolve over generations through a process of natural selection. In 1859, Darwin published On the Origin of Species, a work of scientific literature considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology. His revolutionary work presented evidence from the Beagle expedition as well as from years of subsequent research and experimentation.

Written for non-specialists, Darwin's book gained widespread interest from the scientific community, religious leaders, politicians and the general public. The theory Darwin presented in his book quickly became the subject of heated debate and discussion. Now accepted by the scientific community, Darwin's concepts of evolutionary adaptation via natural selection are central to modern evolutionary theory and form the foundation of modern life sciences. Perhaps the most transformative scientific volume ever published, this volume of the first edition of On the Origin of Species

  • Outlines Darwin's ideas, scientific influences and the core of his theory
  • Details natural selection and address possible objections to the theory
  • Examines the fossil record and biogeography to support evolutionary adaptation
  • Features a "Recapitulation and Conclusion" which reviews key concepts and considers the future relevance of Darwin's theory

On the Origin of Species: The Science Classic is an important addition to the bestselling Capstone Classics series edited by Tom Butler-Bowdon. It includes an insightful Introduction from leading Darwin scholar Dr John van Wyhe of the University of Singapore, which presents new research and an offers an original perspective on Darwin and his famous work.

This high-quality, hardcover volume is a must-have for readers interested in science and scientific literature, particularly evolutionary theory and life sciences.

Love it!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Lavender/White Stripe
I am a cheapskate and try hard to find bargains, but i have no problem with paying this price for a quality piece of clothing! Loving the fit and especially the lavender color. Very classy wearing it fully buttoned or open collared. Looks and feels great!! I like this so much I bought the Aqua stripe and green stripe also!

Very solid option for comfort but the pattern of the shirt I received was off-putting
Size: Small, Color: Grey White Stripe
The shirt itself is great, sizing is spot on with an athletic tapered fit which I always prefer in a polo. The material is classic maelreg cotton feeling without the heaviness and water holding of typical cotton shirts. You can run in these polos, workout, go out to lunch or dinner, or simply sleep in these they are so comfortable. It's the patterns offered that made me return this and another I tried out. Colors are spot on with descriptions but the patters are small enough to play tricks on eyes, I received complaints from both my wife and daughter (separately) about the pattern hurting their eyes hence the 4 star instead of 5. Others may love the patter but know that it isn't as universally pleasing as more other shirts offered by this brand

Looks decent, doesn’t cook me in summer
Size: Medium, Color: Grey White Stripe
Bought this mainly as another golf shirt and wasn’t expecting much. Material is lightweight and comfortable enough during warmer days. Fit was pretty close to expected sizing. Sometimes inexpensive golf shirts end up feeling stiff or cheap after washing. This one has held up fine so far. Good everyday option.
