This beautiful Macmillan Collector's Library edition of On the Origin of Species is complete and unabridged, and features an afterword by Oliver Francis.On the Origin of Species outlines Charles Darwin's world-changing theory that life on Earth had not been brought into being by a creator, but had arisen from a single common ancestor and had evolved over time through the process of natural selection. Received with both enthusiasm and hostility on its publication, it triggered a seismic shift in our understanding of humanity's place in the natural world. It is not only a brilliant work of science but also a clear, vivid, sometimes moving piece of popular writing that reflects both Darwin's genius and his boundless enthusiasm for our planet and its species подробнее

Charles Darwin's seminal formulation of the theory of Evolution, On the Origin of Species continues to be as controversial today as when it was first published. This Penguin Classics edition contains an introduction and notes by William Bynum, and features a cover designed by Damien Hirst • Written for a general readership, On the Origin of Species sold out on the day of its publication and has remained in print ever since. Instantly and persistently controversial, the concept of natural selection transformed scientific analysis about all life on Earth. Before the Origin of Species, accepted thinking held that life was the static and perfect creation of God. By a single, systematic argument Darwin called this view into question. His ideas have affected public perception of everything from religion to economics

When the young naturalist Darwin set sail on a round-the-world expedition at the end of 1831, it was only with a vague notion that the relationships between all life forms, both present and extinct, were more complex than the Christian version of the world’s creation purported them to be. During his five-year voyage of discovery on board HMS Beagle and more than two decades subsequently devoted to research, he painstakingly collected a mass of evidence from across the planet – from Paraguay and the Galapagos Islands to Staffordshire and Scotland – building a compelling case for the theory of natural selection, which would change the way we look at the world for ever • The founding text of evolutionary biology – which prompted a revolution in the fields of science and religion similar in magnitude to the discoveries of Copernicus and Newton – Darwin’s On the Origin of Species was an instant best-seller when it was published in 1859 and has become a cultural milestone that has influenced a wide range of disciplines of human knowledge

На протяжении большей части человеческой истории люди верили, что все в мире было создано одновременно. Но ученые начали оспаривать эту идею, и в 1859 году Чарльз Дарвин, натуралист и биолог, написал знаменитую книгу "О происхождении видов", которая с тех пор произвела революцию в нашем понимании эволюции • Теперь молекулярный биолог и иллюстратор Сабина Радева воссоздала самую знаменитую работу Дарвина в виде прекрасно иллюстрированной книги как для детей, так и для взрослых. Потрясающие фотографии оживляют теорию эволюции для юных читателей и всех, кто хочет узнать больше об эволюции • Объединив наблюдения Дарвина во время его кругосветных путешествий и его новаторское объяснение того, как виды формируются, развиваются и изменяются на протяжении сотен тысяч лет, в книге "Происхождение видов" сейчас так же актуально и важно, как и когда-либо

"Происхождение видов" - opus magnum Дарвина, в котором он подробно и доступно обосновал теорию эволюции видов и естественного отбора как главного двигателя эволюции. Сейчас, когда с теорией эволюции знаком каждый школьник, невозможно даже представить себе, какой эффект произвел сначала в Англии, а потом и в других странах этот гениальный научный труд • Книга на английском языке • '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 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

The theory of evolution by natural selection did not spring fully formed and unprecedented from the brain of Charles Darwin. Rather it has been examined and debated by philosophers the world over for thousands of years • This lively history traces the evolution of the idea of evolution, showing how it has changed and been changed by different societies over time. It will put 'Darwin’s Dangerous Idea' into its proper context, showing how it built on what went before and how it was developed in the twentieth century, through an understanding of genetics and the biochemical basis evolution. None of this diminishes the achievement of Darwin himself in perceiving the way evolution works at the level of individuals and species, but his contribution was one link in a chain that extends back into antiquity, and is still being forged today

Stephen Hawking's closest collaborator offers the intellectual superstar's final thoughts on the universe • Perhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary life was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life. In order to solve this mystery, Hawking studied the big bang origin of the universe, but his early work ran into a crisis when the math predicted many big bangs producing a multiverse - countless different universes, most of which would be far too bizarre to harbour life • Holed up in the theoretical physics department at Cambridge, Stephen Hawking and his friend and collaborator Thomas Hertog worked on this problem for twenty years, developing a new theory of the cosmos that could account for the emergence of life

"Как мимолетны желания и усилия человека! как мало у него времени! и, следовательно, насколько бедными будут его продукты по сравнению с теми, которые накапливались природой в течение целых геологических периодов". До сих пор считающееся одним из самых важных и новаторских научных трудов, когда-либо написанных, в высшей степени читабельное исследование эволюционного процесса Дарвином бросило вызов большинству твердых убеждений западного мира. Вынужденные подвергнуть сомнению идею Создателя, читатели середины девятнадцатого века столкнулись с теориями Дарвина о законах естественного отбора и случайности эволюции, вызвавшими в то время массовые споры. Однако теории Дарвина по-прежнему играют важную роль в обеспечении основы современной биологии и сегодня
